Forgive me for suggesting...

A taxi to anywhere is no more than $3. Why on earth would you walk?

I think I paid one Silverbird driver around $10 to wait for me at Ancol. And that was for...

It seems Sapperken found something exceptional. I hope you managed to harvest her phone number, and are willing to share?

I did so recently, and sent her home due to lack of interest (my stomach...

Off-topic note to all who haven't visited JKT lately:

Seems the infinite wisdom of the Indo government has come into play, and all entry through immigration requires a printout of your return itin...

This one was quite fat and homely, and difficult to age, but likely the same role. She gave me a fairly decent back massage out of the blue while I was idly standing in front of her seat. I didn't...

lol. Well, perhaps I was clinging on to that very faint hope.

A couple interesting observations (well, I guess you will be the judge of that):

Gustav unearthed two girls late at Bats who were actually just off-shift from the Melawei. We thought that was a...

Just went through that last night. Although technically a freebie, the bar tab for my cewek and her two thirsty friends topped 1 juta + the cover charge for all of them.
For some reason the bill...

I'll be in town for a few days. Anyone interested in joining up for a few rounds, please let me know.

Wolf, just pop your old sim card back in the phone and save to handset.

My friends, I am currently enjoying the Ukraine, and although Jakarta will always be my favorite, I am in awe of Kiev. ...

Thank you very much. Good to know. They were under renovation last month, so the name change must be new.

My problem is an uncontrollable urge to butterfly. I'll give up multiple nights of little to no outlay (how many girls do you know that pick up large bar tabs?) because I want the freedom to roam. ...

Funny! Reminds me of my very first trip to JKT, where I brought along a cewek I had met elsewhere. My business friend, also joining us at Tigah, leaned over and said "You shouldn't bring sand to...

Bats is closed until Saturday, by the way.

I too have some numbers, but not for 1-poster.

Spent some time hanging out with "Baby" at Bats before the holiday. Not a great crowd for a Sat night, but Baby was to my liking. I asked her what her real name was and she produced her ID...

A friend and I were hanging out recently at CJ's, where her friend was chatting up an older Malaysian guy. The friend stopped by to say hello shortly thereafter to report that the guy offered her...

I found some bit of irony bonking a young Muslim lass at 4:30am while the very enthusiastic call to prayer was broadcast over the loudspeakers near the hotel.

Blok M was quite empty last night...

Hi guys,

I just arrived after a surprise redirect from Europe. As I understand the end of the holidays are near, what does that mean for the usual scene? I'll be in town until the weekend. ...

Wow! nice shots. You took them all yourself? The 3rd and 4th are especially nice (I'll pass on #2).

There should be a JAD in every city, as far as I'm concerned. Although places like JKT/Bangkok/etc are easy to find what you seek, it really really sucks trying to find the same in...

Well, I'm one of those shortsighted expats who limit themselves to the hotels. I think this is more because I don't have the knowledge to venture out and find these places of which you speak (yes,...

Was due to meet a nice girl in CJ's and inadvertantly rode over to Tigah. Spent 15 minutes exchanging SMS - 'where are you?', 'Next to the DJ booth', 'So am I, I don't see you'... This girl has...

Chatting with a pair of friends in Bats, one really cute, the other ugly, I wandered off to the bathroom. On my way back to my 'spot', I got sidetracked for a few minutes talking to a friend. The...

I've seen her around. Not to my liking though.

Yi Ren, if you are still in town, drop me a line. It wasn't clear from your post if you were leaving JKT over the weekend (the time stamps on posts...

Hello all, looks like I'll be revisiting JKT next week. I'd love to meet some of you if possible. Please PM me if you will be in town and looking to go out somewhere.

I enjoyed the hotel massage stories because they reminded me of my early days in Jakarta around 3 years ago. Went to the Intercon hotel spa for their 'signature' service. The rather plain-looking...
