Hi, I'm Bivi! 👋🏻
I’m an author, illustrator and copywriter extraordinaire based in South Tangerang, Indonesia. Alive as Always has been my little space on the internet since 2012, where I share outfits, books, adventures, slow fashion and eco-conscious living.

When I’m not writing or taking photos, you can probably find me in bed or on my commute, reading books. Scroll down below to see titles I’m currently reading and watching.

Book Recomendations
Reading is my life. First thing in the morning, last thing at night. And I would say I'm pretty much a sponge when it comes to books—I read pretty much anything. Fiction, nonfiction, memoirs, designs—I've got you covered.
