I wanted to travel to at least 1 new country each year. Post pandemic, I guess I'll travel more in Indonesia instead. My last trip was to Aceh and I really love it! :)

I always try to meet local CSers or fellow travelers when visiting a city. It's always nice to hear stories from other parts of the globe. If you come to my city and if our schedule matches, I'd be happy to take you go sightseeing, visit traditional market, or try local foods. I live in the suburb, East Jakarta.

Not interested in places or events where beer or alcohol is involved.

CS is a good place to learn from people with various background, learn new culture, brush up language skills, and contribute to the community.

thanks and good luck!

To make your life easier when traveling in Indonesia,
you might want to install the following applications on your phone:

- gojek (uber like transportation, you can also order food)

- grab (uber like transportation, you can also order food)

- traveloka (local travel app)

- my blue bird (if you prefer to take a taxi, this is a reliable and trustable brand)
