In Perjalanan Asia: Catatan Perjalanan, Indonesian writer Gola Gong documents his extraordinary journey across Asia—not as a tourist, but as a seeker of stories, cultures, and human connections. This book blends travel writing with personal reflection, offering deep insight into the diverse lives and landscapes of the continent.

Rather than focusing on popular spots, Gong writes about everyday people and moments that shape the soul of a place. It’s the perfect read for anyone searching for authentic Asian travel narratives from an Indonesian perspective.

What makes this book memorable is its tone: intimate, honest, and curious. It doesn’t aim to impress with luxury or landmarks, but to bring forward the value of cultural understanding. Gong’s writing invites you to experience overland travel through Asia filled with stories of resilience and discovery.

This travel memoir is ideal for readers who appreciate slow journeys, human encounters, and thoughtful reflections. It’s also a great resource for those exploring literary travel writing rooted in Southeast Asian experiences.
