FOUNDER’S TALE | There is a road called Flowers Lane in Kakaskasen - North Tomohon, North Sulawesi - Indonesia. It was famous to have beautiful garden along the way. Hence it was called Flowers Lane. People said our family was among the first of those who planted flowers on this area. Asters and Gladiolus are famous at that time. However, we also planted daisies, gerbera and many other flowers. Therefore, Flowers Lane is the place where I grew up. The neighborhood was amazingly friendly when I was little kid. We played kite fighting, dice, candle nuts, hide and seek, coins and so on. Likewise, I often played with my dogs around this neighborhood too.
I used to go to my grandparent’ rice field since my mom and dad were working. My grandparents were diligent farmers. There were many interesting activities on this rice field. With several friends, I explored the creek, learn to pick fern from nearby jungle or kangkung (water spinach) from the pond and so on. We learnt how to be safe when doing our activities.
After harvest time, I joined my grandpa and uncles hunting rats at nearby bamboo bushes. I still remember how our hounds worked together with us to bring all the fat rat out of its hiding holes. We were not usually lucky, but most of the time we caught 10 big white tail rats. And, this is enough for the whole hungry flock.
Time goes by. I went to school. I studied hard. And then, I grew up as an adult. Finally, I am working on my own now. Working as guide, I found out that many tourists wanted to see local things on their vacation. It challenged me with some weird ideas. I kept asking myself the what-if questions. I think my life experiences were special and enough to answer this new challenge. And, my experience in tourism can be good apparatus to live up the service. So then, I started. I pick the name Flowers Lane, because there are many good memories on that lane when I was little kid. Hoping that it will result in good memory for every tour also.
