Trip to Jakarta :)

 I last saw her on my wedding day three years back. Last month I got to know she is coming to Jakarta for work. All I could think of was; she is right here, so close by!! I couldn't wait to see her. I booked my flight to Jakarta as soon as she booked her tickets from India to Jakarta.

I have never been to Jakarta or any part of Indonesia before so I knew nothing about this country. The only other way to experience a country without visiting it; is to read about it. So I started reading and I got to know that people don't speak English there. They just stick to the local language. Luckily the local language is similar to Bahasa Malaysia (language in KL). In the last one year, I have only picked up some phrases of Bahasa Malaysia from the locals and learnt the numbers and greetings. As I wasn't going backpacking to Jakarta, this was quite enough.

Living in KL - Part 3 - Life with Friends!!

My life in KL has come full circle - from being taken around the city by friends; to taking friends around the city an year later. This is the story of my first year in KL. The difficulties of being so far away from family were overshadowed by my encounters with some of the best people I have ever met in my life.

It was a roller coaster ride;  and how I wish I could freeze time at the highest moments !!

P.S. This post is third in a series of posts about my life in KL. You can read the other two posts here and here!!
