Suryanti Samiun
Cook
Suryanti, the seventh of eight siblings, was born and raised in Alor. With a background in agriculture from SMK, she brings not only practical knowledge but a deep love for her homeland into her daily life and work.
Now working as a cook at Nautika Dive Alor, Suryanti is known for her calm, steady nature and the warmth she brings into the kitchen. Her passion for cooking is more than just a skill—it’s how she cares for others, creating nourishing meals that leave a lasting impression on both guests and team members.
Her family roots run deep. Suryanti is the great-granddaughter of one of Indonesia’s war heroes from Alor, a legacy that fills her with quiet pride and inspires her dedication to community and service.
Suryanti hopes to see Alor grow stronger and better with each passing year. Through her commitment to her work, her heritage, and her island, she contributes to that vision with care, heart, and resilience.
