It's Phienbelle

Hello there everyone!  Happy Easter!  Hope you all had a great long Easter week, and finally tomorrow head back to school or work with a fresh start! Alright, so, I would like to write about my experience; my first-time visit to Disneyland Paris.  This happened 3 days ago, because my sweet beloved Boyfriend is generous enough to pay for my ticket, plus it was also during the Easter break, and we decided to take a 3 day holiday to Paris. I can say that this is such a dream come true because last year, I only visited the city in less than 24 hours (as I went during my layover) and my boyfriend visited Paris alone too. Both of us thought that we should come back to this romantic city together and experience what we had missed before. Yippie! We booked our flights from Vienna to Paris. The flight was early morning at 6:30 am and we could not catch the night bus, because we didn’t know the exact stop, and the metro has not started operating. After walking here and ther

Wednesday, 29 Juli 2015 Well, well, well… This writing is the biggest work, that I dedicated most of my time working on it today and it is so relieving to be able to put all the roller coaster ride I have encountered in a note. I am writing this so as to keep the promise to myself and to others in the world whoever may have gone through the same thing as I have. The promise I made is somehow a form of ultimatum to the universe (at the beginning) and a reward to it after all tough moments in life that has finally brought me to be who I am today. So here, I would like to share about my journey in getting into Austrian University and to finally get my stay permit the for the whole year and the subsequent years of my study and work (hopefully). Excatly today, just 30 minutes ago, I got a call from the Austrian Embassy In Jakarta telling me that my visa D will be done in the next few days, and also just now the General consulate of Switzerland called me th

Hello all! I want to share the story of my journey to Europe and how I successfully got a study place and an unexpected love story that came along with it. It all started in August 2014, 3 months after my bachelor graduation, when I found that I always wanted to do pursue a career in research. I also know that the chance for this career in very low in Indonesia. There are not many research Labs and it seems like research culture is not very well promoted in the country. At least that's the impression that I get from my country about scientific research. The decision to study abroad also was always made before I even decided my study field.  My education background: I did my bachelor study in Biotechnology from University of Pune, India. I pursued this because I was awarded a scholarship from the Government of India. I was quite lucky actually and getting into the biotech program guided me even further towards research, especially in medicine and engineering. Then, as I ke
