Warming up to Jakarta

…or maybe just warming up in Jakarta, with its 90° days.

I made some friends at the hostel and explored the city some more. Jakarta has a wealth of street food once you know where to look, and the nightlife is pretty bumping, although unlike most things in Jakarta, the price of alcohol is similar to what you’d find in America.

Some pictures I’ve taken:

Bakso soup and es teler from Es Teler 77, an Indonesian fast food chain

Sate Padang with ketupat from a street vendor

National Monument (aka Soekarno’s final erection) with Lou

Independence Mosque with Lou

Jakarta Cathedral

  1. Hi Ari. I’ve put in an offer for you by calling that phone number. There are so many offers there’s going to be a silent auction. Nice photos. I especially like those of you and your mates. You are a handsome dude. Interesting foods. While they sustain you I might lose a few pounds. Keep those posts coming. Stay well.😘😘
