In April, Our door was knocked by the beautiful Catalina and her funny husband, Robert. They are a Romanian-German couple that has been traveling from Bali to Jakarta as their final stop.
Catalina is the ‘sane’ one in the relationship. I like the way she walks and speak, it feels like it has been deeply thought about. Robert is the ‘insane’ one. We would laugh about anything that he said. He is the goofy one in this crazy group.
What Imeh thinks about Robert : — Very open minded, funny, caring, willing to try new things (his favorite drink is Wedang Uwuh during his time in Indonesia)
What Imeh thinks about Catalina : — Animal lover, picky eater, she thinks deeply about the unwritten rules but sometimes gets a bit gawky, and she can read one’s mimic/face expression.
They call each other ‘monkey’ and it was awesome to see how they still look like they just got married, even after four years of knowing each other. The way Robert worship his wife is surely something any other guys should note when it comes to spoiling their partner. They are also very pekewuh (feeling uncomfortable towards someone’s kindness), just like any other Indonesian, one of many traits of us that I have difficulties finding it in another culture (duh!)
Overall, I am looking forward for Robert and Catalina’s visit to Indonesia or me to Romania. I wonder what funny stories he has gathered for us this time.
