Bule Masuk Kampung…
As much fun as it can be to explore Jakarta, it’s also fun (& obligatory I find) to get away from the traffic and air conditioned malls and get away for some fresh air and nature to recharge your batteries. The closest and easiest option for us is to head to Bogor and we spent […] Read more »
The last two years seem to have flown by here in Jakarta since having Samudra – it’s been a crazy journey with lots of ups and downs, plenty of tears, and even more happiness, laughter and love than I could have ever dreamed of. A big part of me staying sane at times has been […] Read more »

My goodness it was the happiest day ever as they have been waiting for this little one for what seems like an eternity and finally baby Anais arrived into the world.

There has been one building that has been intriguing with […] Read more »
So I think I have just found my favourite ever food here in Jakarta, located beside the lovely park in Tebet at Burgreens Eat & Go. I have been reading great reviews of their cafe in Bintaro but time has always escaped me and I have yet to make it there to check it out.. […] Read more »
It’s been so crazy busy with work for weeks now that poor little Samudra has been indoors without any fun day outings or playgroups and I have been feeling incredibly guilty about this. It can be tricky trying to work full time and plus find quality time to spend with the little love of my […] Read more »
