Jakarta

[QUOTE=PlantSmoke;2994652]Plantsmoke here. This forum is pain in the ass to read. Classic, I get it already. Anything after this is just a poem. I had a head injury, so reading these posts hurts my brain after a half dozen pages.

There has to ber a better way? To select the heavy hitters on here and read only their posts. Couple that with '"reports of distinction".

So I need member usernames of heavy hitters here (a heavy hitter is one with extreme knowledge of Jakarta; that has posted new venues and vagabond journeys that tourists would not think of; bekasi, Bogor, depok extra points) So from above we have:

1. Zippos.

2. GG.

3. Future Guy.

4. Loveithere69.

Anyone here want to contribute suggestions for members whose posts are consistently informative, and intel you have never heard before? Most importantly write facts, not poems.[/QUOTE]Thanks. Finally found some write ups on the spa. I'd read them almost a year ago LOL, when I was contemplating the trip. T2 was awesome for me at least last night. I've literally probably never seen a better more classic body when you google women and 'perfect' proportions, hour glass, the cups, round ass, no fat fat etc. , plus she want to come to my hotel next week on her holiday. Was actually planning to be a dirty mid life pervert and pick the tiniest 18 ist since I hadn't done that in awhile, but when an attractive girl gives you a genuine smile when you walk in that's a winner and it was.

So thanks and I'll give the spa a try again in a bit, then hit t2 again and will not write anything more on classic, because you're right, this isn't a dear diary.

I like Redtop BTW, but the laundry service is RIDICOULOUS, like a trip to classic for not that much stuff. It's also annoying to walk but stupid to grab a car / bike. It's 100% not chill if you want to have a girl, SO many people in the lobby to say Hi and judge you LOL. I'm moving next week, glad I just booked a few days. Better to come down from Holiday Inn, Grand Mercure or Mercure (which I'm thinking about only for the in house massage brothel, but HI has Sugar Spa right by anyway) and those seem far more chill for bringing back. The grab driver will perhaps judge you for Classic, but mostly just laugh and wish he was going.

[QUOTE=PlantSmoke;2994691]Anyone want to help me out, break this down. What is the name of the massage joint / joints and what is the address.[/QUOTE]If you google 'sr massage traditional Jakarta' it shows up with their insta page srmassagefullbody which hasn't been updated since late 24 and nothing looks that special. South side of central Jakarta heading to the east.

[QUOTE=MaximusV;2994451]Emporium:

Ok so after I retired from Classic, I moved on to Emporium. My oh my was this an eye opening experience! Let's start from the beginning, when you enter you are brought down to the registration desk. I knew from recommendations from this forum to ask if David was working. Lucky for me he was working that day, David is like your very own pussy concierge. He helped check me in, you get a wrist band and reception locks your phone in a plastic case. David explained all the pricing, rules and how everything works then escorted me to the lounge.

I visited Emporium the most durning my trip, about 12 times in total. I can't emphasize enough how different this place is from classic. There are no pushy mama-sans, the lighting is a lot better, the set up with couches for clients are close enough to where the ladies are sitting to make for an easier selection process. You sit on the couch with your pussy concierge which in my case was David and he walks through his talent recommendations while you relax and drink a beer. No pressure, just a relaxed, clean, comfortable environment. There are 2 categories differentiated by what couch the lady is sitting on, the first couch to the right was 1. 4 mil, and the middle couch and the one on the left was 1. 9 mil. My first encounter was from the 1. 9 mil couch. I knew the second I saw her I had to have her. Abbreviated version of her name is Ria, she had the face and body I love. David made the arrangements and the next thing I know we are walking hand and hand down to the Spa. You use your wrist band number to correspond with your assigned locker, which opens electronically. You get changed into spa shorts that are provided by Emporium and head to the hot tub sauna area.

You can choose how you want to spend time with your lady. Hot tub, cold plunge pool, super hot plunge pool, wet sauna, dry sauna, relaxation futon mat area that is curtained off. You have a lot of options and variety. I used everything they had to offer at one point or another. So on this first encounter when Ria walked out of the women's dressing room in her bikini, I couldn't believe my eyes, she looked even hotter than in the lounge. I was like a kid in a candy store, so happy, was hard to contain my excitement as the little head was starting to stand at attention! She grabbed my hand and we walked to the hot tub where we parked ourselves in the corner and started making out like high school sweet hearts. She was slow grinding on my lap with legs wrapped around me, the whole experience was fantastic! As I sat there in the hot tub I thought to myself, flying half way around the world is finally starting to pay off!

We finished up in the spa, got our robes and towels and made our way back to the room. When you pick a 1. 9 mil girl the package comes with a VIP room. Which has jacuzzi tub, nice big bed with ceiling mirror and all the comforts one should expect at this price point. Ria and I started in the shower, continuing our make out session. She washed me, I washed her. She then went down on me to provide a wonderful BBBJ, looking up at me with those beautiful eyes I will not forget. We made our way to the bed and the GFE experience was in full swing. I felt like I knew her for years, we just clicked. I licked every inch of her perfect body, she then reciprocated. After we started in missionary, then went to doggie and for the finale she got on top and slowly rocked those hips back and fourth, maintaining eye contact before coming in close for more passionate kissing. I tried to hold out for as long as I could but when I looked up at the ceiling mirror and saw her perfect ass grinding away on top of me, it was just too much to hold back, and seconds later I erupted. To say I was impressed with Ria and her service would be an understatement, this was excellent! One of the best I have had in years. We took another shower and cuddled for the remainder of the time we had left. I told her I would be back tomorrow and the next day to see her. She was happy to hear that, she was even happier when I tipped her 600 k. Ria walked me back to the mens locker room and kissed me good bye. I saw David when I was leaving, he gave me his card and told me to contact him anytime.

The next day I sent David a text that I was coming back and I wanted to see Ria again. He arranged everything, I arrived 5 minutes early for my appointment, David had reception check me in and then he brought me to the lounge where Ria was already waiting for me. We picked up where we left off yesterday but this time we did the dry sauna and futon relaxation area before heading to the bedroom. Ria was just as hot and did not disappoint on this go around, just fantastic service all around. After we finished up and started cuddling she asked how long I would be staying in Jakarta. I let her know I would be there for a few more weeks. She said her day off was Sunday. I took that as a hint she wanted to hang out. I told her to come visit me on Sunday and we can go for lunch and a swim. She seemed excited by that prospect so we exchanged contact info and planned a meet up for Sunday.[/QUOTE]I've been to the Emporium a lot and I'm going back next week, but did I understand correctly that you paid 2. 5 million for this visit? I've usually never paid more than 1. 6 million there. What happened there? I mean, when the girls move out, they usually don't look much different than they did in the Travel or Classic!

[QUOTE=PlantSmoke;2994877]Hi gabacho,

Can you share the location of this chicken place please. I'm sure it was simply an oversight by you; as I know you like to help people. I'll be in lokisari shortly. "Holes in the wall" establishments are usually harder to find.[/QUOTE]It was directly across from the A&W when you exit lokasari plaza onto that side street there. I'm talking about that smaller street that has a lot of moto traffic, it will be literally right in front of you as you're walking out of the plaza. That was probably one of the cheapest places I ever ate lunch at in Jakarta.

The little tokyo is the nickname for two blocks of streets, namely jalan Melawai 6,7,9 located in block m square mall complex, Kebayoran Baru, South Jakarta. The later it gets, the more crowded.

Little tokyo gets. On normal days there are often rows of woman dressed sexily on the side of the road. (The authorities usually turn a blind eye to people with money).

I know ill be checkin out the area. Couldn't be much more expensive then Malio.

I have to Lowe massages in block M.

Price was 390.000 for massage + HJ + CIM.

Have to pick lady from picture.

Cute face and titties. Rest body was ok and she made me think she liked what she was doing.

Sort of a massage first. Said 90 minutes. But massage done in 40 minutes. I was outside in less than an hour.

The few mentioned on Google maps turned out not to exist or to be hopelessly uninviting. I guess cheap laundry can be problematic in Jakarta.

They washed all my clothes for 40 k. I would drop them off once a week in the mornings and then pick them up in the afternoons.

Jakarta: 3-29-2018 prostitution practices are said to not only exist in entertainment venues or hotels. Prostitution also exists in public and open places.

Head of social rehabilitation Section of the West Jakarta Social Service Sutaawijaya mapped out three locations that are the "bases" of commercikal sex workers (CSW).

In the west Jakarta area.

There is in Pesing, Kota tua which is on the corner of the rail before entering Kota Tua, and on Jalan Gajah Mada.

To be continued.

Continued. Sutawijaya said the base area for PSK in Pesing is precisely on jalan Panjeran Tubagus Angke, right on the edge of the river. There, female PSKs stand late at night. Those that come in and out (of Pesing), (the execution takes place at the place) that uses a blue tent, said Sutawijaya. Although often raided, the location is still a hangout for PSK.

So regarding kota rail tracks the two next stations that both take right hand bends 90 degrees are:

1. Kampung Bandan Station.

2. Jayakarta Station.

There is the remote chance, he was actually talking about rawa-bebek, "around the bend", back in 2018?

Thought for a minute about humping the train tracks, then came to my senses. All train track locations either on top or underneath have entry points.

So what you do is go to Kota, Kampung Bandan, or Jayakarta and grab a freelance motodriver in front of station at nightfall and in bahasa say "train track girls".

Note* Although not unimportant, 2018 reports are still legit because, hookers always return.

Why am I having problems with credit cards: navy federal and scwabbs' special traveler investor card?. On a Lion Air or SuperJet reservation from Jakarta to batam on as visa run? They continue to decline card saying "contact merchant bank" Fuck them its not a problem with my bank, its them!

Is it because it is a ATM credit card? What kind of mickey mouse operation doesn't accept credit cards.

And if I book lion air thru agoda, they'll rip me off with additional baggage fees.

Fuck indo immigration and there onward flight requirement.

Reddit said this has been a problem. I. e. Indonesian airlines accepting foreign credit cards. In my case [URL]traveloka.com[/URL] happened to ber the cure. Thanks for your responses.

God sometimes tests you out, "How bad do you wanta go to Jakarta". So far jumping his hurdles.

[QUOTE=PlantSmoke;2995779]. On a Lion Air or SuperJet reservation from Jakarta to batam on as visa run?[/QUOTE]If I've understood the above correctly. Why are you doing a visa run from Jakarta to Batam? You haven't left Indonesia.

What kind of mickey mouse operation doesn't accept credit cards.[/QUOTE]Haven't had a problem with cards being rejected on Indonesian sites since the early 2010's, when they didn't accept anything except Indonesian cards. I don't know if the debit card (I presume that's what you mean by ATM card) causes issues, I know one I have hasn't. Maybe the bank has detected you using the card outside of your home country and rejected use as potentially fraudulent? I don't know where you are, maybe that is a possibility.

You all don't know how lucky you are these days to do nearly everything online from outside Indonesia. The joys of not needing to talk to any immigration 'official' last time because my eVOA allowed me to use the passport gates like a modern country.

Also if you have done an eVOA, that can be extended online for another 30 days with a fee. I haven't tried it, been flat out enough dealing with the pecularities of the Immigration website just to get an eVOA. But the site seems settled now I. E. It actually worked the last time.

Typing this brought back memories (horrors?) of dealing with Indonesia a little over 10 years ago. Needing an Indonesian to buy tickets online for me, and deliver it physically once I had arrived so I could travel back home on Lion. Actually travelling on Lion. Travelling on Adam Air one month before they slammed a plane into the ocean, because you can still fly a plane with one half of a cockpit working (till it doesn't). Not being able to use a card anywhere. Neverending runs to ATMs for more cash. 'Discussions' with immigration and polisi road blocks.

Then again, the stuff going on then that you could get away with (and certainly not now) made up for it. Ah, memories.
