I had the pleasure of taking a poetry class at the Museum of Fine Arts and Ceramics, an experience that allowed me to tap into my creative side while surrounded by the city's rich artistic heritage. As I explored the museum's galleries, I was inspired by the diverse works on display, from traditional ceramics to contemporary fine arts. The poetry class provided a unique opportunity to express my thoughts and emotions through words, drawing inspiration from the museum's collections. Under the guidance of a skilled instructor, I discovered new ways to craft my poetry, experimenting with language and form. The museum's serene atmosphere and beautiful surroundings fostered a sense of creativity and focus, allowing me to tap into my inner voice. As I shared my poetry with fellow classmates, I appreciated the power of words to connect us and convey our experiences.

My activities during my stay at Harris Suites FX Sudirman. Honestly, I don't want to stay longer. The views at night and in the morning are amazing. From here, it's close to GBK, so you can go jogging in the morning or evening. If you're hungry and want to eat, watch a movie, or shop, just go down to the mall. Breakfast here is also delicious. I'll stay here again next time... I'm saving up so I can stay for two days, haha. #Harrissuitefxsudirman #hoteljakarta
