Memoar Sang Pemimpi

This book is the true story of a farm laborer's child from a small village in Mojokerto who grew up in hardship yet never stopped dreaming.

With determination and courage, he crossed geographic, social, and emotional boundaries until he finally set foot in the country that once existed only in his imagination: America.

Written since 2014, Memoar Sang Pemimpi is not only a travelogue but an honest portrait of falling and rising while living abroad.

It is about surviving loneliness, facing discrimination, financial hardship, and endless longing for home. About invisible wounds, hopes nearly extinguished, and small steps taken with courage.

It is a story of learning to make peace with the past, with loss, and with oneself.

More than a life story, this book is a light for anyone quietly chasing a dream — a reminder that big dreams can grow from humble places and that every struggle, however small, still matters.
