Nowadays, back to the village is becoming a trend. What i
meant with “village” is a place where we can experience a life like in a
village: planting, feeding farm animals, or even ploughing..! These kinds of
activities were easily found in our grandparents daily life (maybe). As our
country gets more modern, more people move to the city and those activities in
the nature lose their charm.
Don’t worry, modern life makes us pay a lot for the
environment and that’s why green lifestyle becomes a solution. Going to places
that support green lifestyle is one alternatives for spending a great holiday.
Fortunately, I got the chance to visit Kuntum Farm Field, an agro tourism place
in Jalan Raya Tajur, Bogor.
I read a lot of blog review about Kuntum before. It is a
farming field where visitors (especially kids) can touch, pet, feed, and ride
animals that they rarely see in the city. It also has gardens of organic
vegetables and flowers.
When I arrived there, I really loved it! First, Kuntum is
clean for a place that has a lot of farm animals. Second, it’s affordable. The
ticket is only IDR 30.000, and free for kids under 3 years old. So, I only spent
IDR 60.000 for tickets.
After we paid the ticket, we entered the main area. I borrowed
farmer’s hat (for free) because I predicted it would be quite sunny the next
hour. The situation inside was really exciting. A lot of kids were feeding the
goats. None of them looked afraid! My son liked feeding rabbits because they
were more reachable and touchable... Vegetables for feeding the rabbits were
sold for Rp 3000 per basket. I didn’t buy it since there were some leftover
inside the cage. Unfortunately, we skipped the hamster area since I thought
that their cage was rabbits’ also.
My son tried to touch instead of feeding the goat |
Shady area, stroller friendly, and clean |
Other than goats and rabbits, we also visited cow and calf area where people are able to give milk in a (really big) bottle with
(big) pacifier. It was so cutee..! We didn’t enter chicken coop but we went passing
a lot of geese and ducks. In the end of this section we could see fish ponds. I
guess this was the area for gathering since I saw some huts.
The next section was horse riding area. It was 5 minutes
walk dowa a slopy pathway. There, my son rode a horse without my husband, and
we paid Rp 30.000 for one round. Adults were not allowed to ride the horses
because they were little ponies. When my son finished riding, we took a rest
while met up with my husband’s junior high school friends. Yes, it was a little
reunion. We ate some snacks that we brought from home.
Horse riding, yeayyy! |
In the end ofour trip, my son wanted to feed the fish behind
the ticket box. So, I bought a pack of fish feed for Rp 3000 and spent a really
relaxing afternoon sitting beside the pond.
Okay, in total, I only spent Rp 60.000 for tickets + Rp
30.000 for horse riding + Rp 3000 for fish = Rp 93.000. I brought food from
home so that made it under Rp 100.000. I’m sure person definitely spends less
than 100K (if you are single or without kids). Seems tempting?
P.S: I know it’s
already the 23rd English Friday Challenge. So, this post is way too late. It’s
okay, I’m just trying not to miss a challengeJ
