I decided to stay temporarily in Loenen Forest. It's a very good place to survive without needing money. I'm not afraid of animals in the forest, especially snakes.

When I was little, I often visited my grandfather. He is the third generation of the Wongsodikromo family who comes from Java. In the colonial era, young Wongsodikromo took part in a youth exchange program between the kingdom of Mataram and the kingdom of the Netherlands.

My grandfather lived in the village of Giethoorn with a house that still had a thatched roof which was inherited from his great-grandfather from the 18th century. I really enjoyed playing there because my grandfather house was surrounded by canals. I can use the canoe as much as I want without having to pay.

Until one day I found a small dark blue stone on the dining table. I thought it was some kind of candy without thinking, I swallowed the stone and then I heard grandfather voice calling me. Katty, did you see the blue gemstone that out of the ring? Oh, of course not, my dear grandfather. How did it get loose?, I don't understand either, maybe it's looking for its new master.

Why is this stone so valuable to you? It's a snake gemstone, who ever wear, it will be immune to snake venom. I got it from my grandfather, Wongsodikromo, a Javanese man. I just smiled a little while saying, how lucky the person who found it.

Survival

After being satisfied with reminiscing about the past, I started walking around the Loenen forest towards an artificial lake that has existed since the 19th century. The royal nobility made the lake as a recreation area for their families.

I want to look for food that contains high protein so that I can survive unfavorable weather conditions. The young fern leaves that I eat almost every day make my stomach start to feel bloated.

Arriving at the edge of the lake, I saw a group of Crustaceans playing among the water plants. It's not difficult for me to catch it. I need a high protein intake to improve the quality of my brain so I can continue to think creatively and survive in the middle of the forest.

While eating I thought for a moment, I can't be here forever. I miss Gouda cheese, should I go there?. The crustacean protein started to react, I have a strong body, the combination of young fern leaves and crustacean protein made me able to survive this long.
