Surabaya, INDONESIA 🦈🐊: friendly people and delicious Java food

Surabaya is the second-largest city in Indonesia. It's located in Java island (East Java more precisely). The name Surabaya itself means shark and crocodile, referencing a centuries-old tale about a fight between a shark and a crocodile in the area where the city is located. 🦈🐊

This trip to Indonesia was before the lockdown.

► WHO AM I?

I am a Brazilian-American journalist living in Florida. After traveling the world working with sports, news, and events for over 15 years, I realized that what I really love is the travel part of it all. So I exchanged life in the newsrooms and stadiums for the daily challenge of being an independent content producer. I created this channel to share the beauties of the world... stuff that for so long I only kept to myself. Also to help people planning similar trips and to inspire more people to venture out and enjoy life!

P.S.: The funny guy who appears in the vlogs is my husband, Gordon. He is Canadian-American and he's actually camera-shy, that's why he's behind the camera most of the time 😉

Hi Renata, I'm from Johor Bahru, Malaysia. After watching this video I feel that Surabaya is a unique city to live in. Very clean, and safe, it's not as crowded as Jakarta, also has a lot of history. I can't wait to visit Surabaya in the future.

Surabaya is a city with low cost of living. Cheap food, cheap transportation. Nice and green city.
