In the end of July, we invited Marco, a personal trainer from Indonesia for a gym class at Lötsjön, Sundbyberg. This was combined with "After Workout Fika"

Summer Picnic 2022-08-07

Our yearly summer picnic in August is always a great chance for catching up and having fun together. New from this year was our "hat competition". The winner, and the most unique hat was worn by Urban Wahlstedt. A hat decorated with a beautiful magpie. The prize for that was a hand-painted batik hanger handed over by the Indonesian ambassador for Sweden, Mr Kamapradipta Isnomo.

On August 17th, 2022, it was time to celebrate the birthday of the Indonesian nation which just turned 77 years old. Some days later, Pesta Rakyat took place at the residence of the ambassador of Indonesia in Sweden. On this occasion we decided to celebrate the birth of Indonesia with products that were born in the country. We were selling batik; both on clothes and painted on hangers and also two very popular and high-quality Indonesian coffee varieties, namely Aceh Gayo and Bali Kintamani. Our skilled barista Marco (yes, the same guy that is our personal trainer) did not get any break between the orders!

We also had children's corner and a fashion show where the youngsters had a chance to show the pride of Indonesian culture and fashion! The theme for this year, Nusa Tenggara Timur (NTT), the most southern-east part of Indonesia, could be seen all over the place.
