Abstract
<p class="p1a">Traveling is one activity that is often done by urban communities.
 Currently there are many female travelers in Indonesia, one of them is Trinity
 that entered in a row of women who inspire Indonesian women. Trinity constructs
 self-identity by liberating herself from the construction of society in
 general, and represents herself through social media, books and films. One of
 the used social media is Instagram, under account name @trinitytraveler. The purpose
 of these paper is to figure out how self-identity constructed and how the image
 of “Other Woman" is represented in @trinitytraveler. This research applied
 self-identity theory from Anthony Giddens (<span lang="IN">1991</span>) and representation from Stuart Hall (<span lang="IN">2013</span>). Through @trinitytraveler, Trinity
 represents "The Other Woman" which is different from the "Ideal
 Woman" that has been known in the community. @trinitytraveler represents a
 different self-identity; that is a single woman who has freedom of life by
 traveling to various places. In addition @trinitytraveler also represents women
 who are able to enjoy and appreciate herself including her body, being freed
 from the dominant construction of beautiful women.<o:p></o:p></p>
