Some people love one thing, and some people love the other.
For Chris Martin, his thing is walking barefoot. The Coldplay frontman had been seen walking without anything on his soles for several occasions.
In London, for example, the Coldplay frontman was once seen walking barefoot when he stepped out of the BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge. He did something similar when in Spain, when he was seen walking barefoot with his girlfriend, Dakota Johnson.
This time, the ex-husband of Gwyneth Paltrow is seen walking barefoot in the Indonesia, during his long-awaited tour to the country's capital.
He shared this moment on Instagram, and in response, fans created a location on Google Maps just for it.
This happened when Chris Martin took a quick stroll in public, and was seen in Setiabudi, near Jakarta's Dukuh Atas light rail transit station.
The singer walked barefoot on the asphalt with his manager, Phil Harvey, with trees growing along the roadside in dry soil.
While the location isn't exactly vacant, considering that Jakarta in the middle of the day is a crowded space, Martin walked near a reservoir, which foul scent could be detected along the path.
He is said to walked barefoot at the location a day before the Coldplay concert.
The first that witnessed Martin, was a security guard.
When interviewed at the location, the security guard admitted to seeing a foreign man walking on the sidewalk on November 14 afternoon. The man then went up to the pedestrian overpass and took pictures there.
"From here (the sidewalk), he went up (to the overpass). The path from here, passing in front of this area," said the security guard.
From his appearance and casual outfit, which only include a T-shirt, shorts and a cap, Martin doesn't look like some celebrities who flaunt wealth. The security guard was deceived, and though that Martin was just an ordinary Caucasian man, probably a tourist, who happened to walk near his place of work.
The security guard only realized who the person was, when his friend showed him a Coldplay's Instagram post.
"I didn't realize that it was Coldplay. Because there are also many foreigners in Sudirman Park. So, I didn't understand that he's a celebrity. When there was a post, my friend pointed out, oh, that was him yesterday," he explained.
"It was normal. Like an ordinary person. Wearing shorts, a hat. Just like an ordinary person, not a celebrity. I thought there were many foreigners in that apartment," he added.
To some people, walking barefoot gives that simple but enjoyable pleasure.
Some do it for the sensory experience, feeling different textures under their feet. It's a way to connect with nature and the environment, allowing for a more direct and tactile connection with the ground. Others might find it liberating or comfortable. Plus, there's a sense of freedom that comes with letting their feet breathe.
After the news, and the Instagram post went viral, the location Chris Martin walked barefoot appeared on Google with its own name, pinned on Google Maps.
Called 'Chris Martin Nyeker Disini', which means 'Chris Martin Walked Barefoot Here', is meant to memorialize the place where the singer walked without shoes on in the country's capital, Jakarta.
This information has rapidly spread on social media platforms, making it a place some people may want to visit.
