‘My name is far too difficult for non-Indonesians, so I have to pick another one. Dio, perhaps, or Opa or Kakek which already are my nicknames back home. They both mean grandfather in Bahasa Indonesia. I was given those names because my face looks old, and it might also be for the wise things I say. That’s a joke, of course.
‘I live at my sister’s place in Paddepoel. Actually, she is quite famous in Indonesia. She has written a book about her experiences as a student in Groningen. It’s really popular, almost every Indonesian student who wants to study in Europe has read it.
‘Living with my sister’s family – yes, she is married – has some advantages, of course. I don’t have to pay rent, and the food is for free. On the other hand, she is kind of strict. I have to help with cleaning and she insists on me coming home at ten in the evening, which is very early.
‘Groningen has a chill vibe. It’s a perfect place, especially for free spirits like myself. I want to become a university lecturer, but to do so I have to earn a master’s degree first. That’s why I enrolled at the International Business programme at Hanze University.’
