JAKARTA - Singer and former Coutez personnel, Delia Septianti, shared her experience when she decided to move from Jakarta to Kediri after marrying her husband, Jerry Christy in December 2024.
Delia admitted that she had a culture shock, especially regarding her lifestyle and activity rhythm which was much different from the capital city.
"The fact (cultural shock when moving to Kediri). Actually, the shock is really different, Sis, it's close everywhere, it doesn't get stuck," said Delia in her upload quoted from the Instagram account @rumpi_ttv, Sunday, July 13.
Delia explained that life in Kediri made her have to adapt to very efficient time and distance.
The habit of delaying prayers is because the assumption that you will be on a long journey does not apply in Kediri.
"So, for example, it's tidy, yes, it's tidy, okay, I want to go. For example, keep praying, oh, I'll be walking later, right. It turns out that I've just gone to three places from Zuhur. I'm still not in the setting yet," he said with laughter.

In addition to shorter travel times, Delia also revealed striking differences in terms of daily expenses, especially for meals.
"Secondly, when you pay for food. If you're there, you can eat 10 thousand, Sis. Really memories," he said.
"The day if we are in Jakarta, it's Rp. 500 thousand, at least. Toll roads, gasoline, right. There, Rp. 100,000 can come out a day," he continued.
Turning to entertainment venues, Delia said shopping centers in Kediri were not as big as in Jakarta, but remained comfortable and sufficient.
"Then the mall. The mall is just like that. Short, yes, 15 minutes is enough to trade in the mall," he said.
However, he also appreciated the development of the city of Kediri, which is now starting to be equivalent to Jakarta in terms of culinary choices and facilities.
"It's just that it's good because Kediri is also a city that has developed, it's already moving forward," he said.
"So there are already a lot of food in Jakarta. There are also there. So it's not really like that," concluded Delia.
