E03 Nino Indrawan | Hostel Owner (Bhumi Hostel) & Certified Accountant | Reviving ancient traditions while harnessing technology

Nino Indrawan plays in the worlds of hospitality, travel, tourism, accounting, fashion, fitness, and outdoor sports. His mantra is balance, and he infuses joie de vivre into each balancing act – work and play, left and right brain, mind and body.

While this Renaissance man juggles many careers, he speaks mainly about founding his eco-tourism boutique hostel in Yogyakarta, a special region in Java known for its traditional arts and UNESCO heritage sites. For everyone missing travel, Nino’s soulful words will transport you to the heart of a thriving 15th century neighborhood, where he and his team are reviving ancient arts such at batik dyeing, shadow puppets, and centuries old handweaving techniques.

Along the way, he waxes poetic about his love for numbers, how his prior career in operations efficiency and IT helped him equip his businesses for the pandemic, and how he constantly challenges himself to try new things, including competing in Indonesia’s version of The Amazing Race!

If you love being immersed in new cultures, or constantly picking up new skills and experiences, this episode is dedicated to you.
