Jakarta

I have read enough about seeking here where I am seriously considering it. However it is pretty steep. I see if you pay for one time one month diamond package its 270 usd. If you do one time 90 day it is also 270 usd. There is a monthly auto renew option for 109 usd. My impulse is to just do the one month auto renew collect SB contacts and then quit on the last day of the month. This seems so obvious that I am suspicious this is a trap and I will end up paying for many months. Does any do this? Also how are people paying this without using a card with your real name on it?

[QUOTE=Exoticspirit;2956997]Have any of you ever taken the Jakarta Airport train into the city? I think it goes to BNI Station and some other ones too. I'm going to be staying at the Classic Hotel and wondering which would be the best station to get off and get a Grab from there to Classic.[/QUOTE]Yes I have taken it in both directions from Airport to BNI (Sudhirman Baru) and back. Each of those journeys took 50 minutes consistently. For your Classic Hotel, Duri Station would be close (Google maps shows approx 5 km by car).

Train was reasonably clean, seats were very comfortable and there is ample space for luggage. From the terminals, first catch the SkyTrain that connects terminals 1, 2 and 3. The Airport train station has a special stop on SkyTrain line. The airport train will be signposted as "KA Bandara" (Kereta Api Bandara).

[QUOTE=Svelte;2957816]I enjoy go-go bars in Bangkok, such as ones in Nana Plaza. There, you have the chance to talk with a girl, buy her drink (s), and decide if the chemistry is right to take her ST / LT. Is there anything similar in North Jakarta? The spas / clubs sound amazing but it's more of a gamble (albeit cheap) because it seems like you're picking ladies from a distance and with little / no time to get her vibe.

I like the hunt almost as much as the catch, so don't know if Jakarta's mongering scene is right for me for short visits. Would appreciate anyone's thoughts. Thanks in advance.[/QUOTE]That's funny. Many of us fly to Jakarta in order to escape the crappy Thailand set-up, with its lady drinks and girls who don't fuck, and you hope to find more of the same in Jakarta. Be glad the answer to your query is "no".

1. Malio Club (not Malioboro). I haven't been in years.

2. Club 36 supposedly. I have never been so take your chances if you follow this lead.

Strip clubs in Jakarta fell in one huge swoop around 10 years ago at the same time Jakarta shut down Alexis. A sad day in the Jakarta sex industry. After that we were left with "strip clubs" in places like Emporium which sadly disappeared around 2017 too.

You can join Seeking without paying up front.

I'm on Seeking also and let me save you the trouble and say that it's not worth it. There are less girls on it but the same quality as you would find on a regular dating website that's less expensive but has more quantity of girls. Out of 60 or more profiles on Seeking, one or two are above average, but none are drop dead gorgeous, obviously it depends on your taste.

There are better looking girls at a high end massage / karaoke than Seeking. In fact, I saw better looking girls just walking around and buying noodles or bakso from a street vendor than Seeking.

The only difference on Seeking compared to other websites is that it's entirely gold digging based. Money matters is out in the open. We already know why the girl is there. That's all.

At the end, you'll probably spend more money on Seeking and taking the girl out than you going to a high end massage / karaoke where the girls are already vouched for, organized and STD tested.

But if that's your thing than you do you.

You can talk with the girls at places like Classic and Emporivm. I spent a couple of minutes with girls at both places before thinking it was a good match and telling mamasan / papasan I'd like to go with the girl. If after talking I thought it was not a good match I'd tell her goodbye and look for somebody else. A few minutes should be enough to gauge things for ST, as there isn't really any LT setup at these places.

Had my first visit to Jakarta last summer (after spending most of my time in Thailand), and p4p-wise, I prefer Jakarta now. Love Thailand for everything else though.

[QUOTE=Exoticspirit;2958005]Thanks, I'll probably go to Duri then and take Grab the rest of the way to Classic.[/QUOTE]No I stayed at Classic Hotel couple months ago no need to change to Grab. Take the airport train to Manggarai, then change to Red line, ride 4 stops to Sawah Besar and its 8 minutes walk. And I did this route carrying my wheeled luggage.

Woke up horny and sent of a few messages. Most SBs in Uni or at work then one is like sure let's fuck after pilates. Not sure if this is just a Jakarta thing. Why is there such a huge volume of actual SBs on seeking here? Any one have experience aka are other cities in SEA like this? Is Bali like this? I'm perplexed. Compared to the west, dubai, indian / pak cities, eastern Europe etc there is clearly some glitch here; it's like the good old days when seeking first started. I have yet to meet an actual agent or escort on seeking in Jak. Wtf is going on?

Thanks in advance.[/QUOTE]I strongly suggest staying in Thailand. People who like Bangkok / Pattaya will mostly be disappointed with Jakarta. Thailand is geared to Farang who like to drink and have pretend girlfriends. The girls there know how to massage your ego and milk your Baht. Jakarta is much more straightforward point and shoot (at least the spas and brothels are). Jakarta scene is supported by locals with a handful of bule floating around.

Am researching too for my upcoming repeat trip and haven't encountered a single hardcore WG / online scammer or a sob story seller like in Phillipines. I guess Jakarta remains the only seeking haven in this earth. Bali is a no go. Phillies yes but have to do a lot of sifting before you get that diamond in the rough. Somewhere close to is Caracas. Cheers and have fun mate.

I contacted a few and some are asking for ridiculous amounts 9 million is one that came to mind even the old ones 40 and up want 4 million.

You are asking if other places are like this. I find that a strange question to ask as you can chage the search location to Bali on the site and see for yourself so.

Not entirely sure I believe your reports about meeting all these fantastic SB I'm not seeing the same.

You are on the site seekingarrangements?

The Indon girls on SA are far more educated and honest than many other countries.

I have Argentina on my list, hearing the BA scene is solid and seeking confirms this. Wonder if this have calmed down in Vez; last I heard you wana Venz you go to Brazil or Colombia esp border cities.
