y portugués, inglés y bahasa. I never would have imagined that I would be able to find Spanish speakers in Jakarta, let alone an association that fosters the usage of the language and the promotion of Ibero-American culture. I was so excited to find the Spanish Speaking Women Association in Jakarta and quickly got involved … Continue reading

Find: Kindyroo Menteng
When we first moved to Jakarta I was very disappointed to find that the closest Gymboree to our home was an hour away without traffic!

I’m not a big fan of carrot anything, unless they are raw … Continue reading
Hello world!

I’ve been thinking I need to somehow document our adventures and whereabouts as I know by the time my boys are old enough to care, I will probably have forgotten. We are constantly on the move, but one thing … Continue reading
