Yogyakarta, one of the most-visited destinations in Indonesia after Bali. The city is well-known not only for its beautiful culture but also for great people around. Well, it’s true. I and my fellows just spent a short weekend getaway there. Why Yogyakarta? Yes, we were planning to enjoy its nature along with its flavourful culinary. But instead I witnessed and snapped how local behave and interact with their surroundings.

Inspiration can come from anywhere, even from the unexpected triggers. From my previous story, The story about my initial UX Research journey, I mentioned that being a researcher, I need to immerse in users’ environment and be part of them. During my vacation, meeting and interacting with new people (locals) could be one of source of inspirations.

This story is a part of my journey as UX researcher, any feedbacks, advice or even critiques are welcome! Thank you so much for reading through!
