North Sumatra's messy city: Medan 🇮🇩

Despite Medan's reputation as one of Indonesia's least attractive cities, I encountered so many of the friendliest locals on my walk through the city in the afternoon heat and sun.

I hope you don't get it wrong, in Medan City there are still many people on the street who are amazed when they see foreigners, especially westerners, some of them think that greeting foreigners will be strange. And some still do, we are not discussing backwardness, but this is another face of Indonesian people, friendly and Welcome

When you said Universitas Sumetra Utara ,the other drivers were saying the same but using short form "USU". I guess there was small misunderstanding. Indonesian people tend to use short form for almost everything, even writing text messages ,they have restricted the words into fewer alphabets.

before crushing the public vehicle you have to ask the fare first to the locals, so you don't be lied to by the driver
