life style in Jakarta its really cosmopolitan , you feel not as tourist when you are in Jakarta. in Bali you feel as tourist that is big different between Jakarta and Bali
Yeah true, Belitung is wonderfull island. Clear water & beautiful nature. For all foreigner, you must make a schedule for visit to Belitung when you're in indonesia.
I also love Jakarta and its surroundings (Jabodetabek), never bored. Unfortunately because of covid there is no music festival in Jakarta, usually very crowded and exciting. Anyway greetings from Bekasi
My wife’s family is from Pulau Seliu - off Pulau Belitung ……. We took at junk ferry over - only cost up $50 for the entire day and could take 20 family members over. The only down side, the skipper was 13 and his crew were even younger…!!
I was born in Jkt, lived there, but can't live there anymore. BUT I like the fact that you are actually enjoying it! Its amazing to see you travelling as if Corona didnt exit... we envy you! Wear double mask, yeah, take care!
Wow, it must be a pretty rare sight to see such a busy airport! We know what you mean about the joys of convenience in larger cities! Have a great time and stay safe!
Yes, the convenience is what makes me stay in Jakarta despite the traffic. It has almost everything. Btw how I've missed shopping malls! I haven't been outside for almost 3 weeks now. And have to stay that way for at least another 2 weeks due to the lockdown.
oh i love the way that you promoting some place in Indonesia guys. That will be make local people economy increase , because after you promoting surely many people will know that place. Thank you guys☺️🙏🏼
Before watching this i had no desire to visit Jakarta, now you totally changed my mind . I love big citys and very fond of a fine 🍸 cocktail . My bill for fine spirits is usually 80.00 dollars. The skybar is on my bucket list .
Maybe you should do an update on the new entry and travel restrictions (vaccination and PCR tests). Hope you enjoyed Belitung, had a great time there 10 years ago.
@@alexandwhite yeah that typical cloth mask is not enough you need to wear medical mask + that cloth mask.. according to Dr. Faucci of CDC also. Take care Alex and Kinta !
The hotel you're staying was Artotel Thamrin, right? I like that thematic Hotel, in the morning you can find many foods around, and in the evening you can walk to Sabang Street, also to find some delicious foods. Claypot Popo is my favorit!
Thank you for wonderful video! It is really interesting and motivating! Cannot wait when all of us start travel again! Thank you for helping to promote tourism! W
How’s the Covid situation in Jakarta atm? Looks like no restrictions etc but news reporting relatively high statistics. LoveJakarta been there many times for work at the Oz Embassy. Keep safe mate 🙏
I don't know when this video was shot..But as Jakartan..I can say that it's being local lockdown..even people from the outskirts or surrounding towns can't enter Jakarta..all borders are being guarded by police & army..very strict..even the entrances which are located in the province of Jakarta are blocked..Malls are closed.. Btw, Jakarta is a province with 5 cities or regions (central, west, east, south, north)..
It is under hard lockdown right now.. non-essential business would need to work from home 100%. The malls, public places are all closed. The most crowded place right now is actually vaccination centers.
Its just funny for me how foreigners said Grand Indonesia their fav mall. When I'm Indonesian (and mostly my friends) not really like go to GI because the crowd. We prefer to hangout at Pasific Place or Plaza Indonesia, or currently trend Astha Mall.
@@alexandwhiteu can find H&M and Zara at there too. But if I just want to eat I prefer to PI then GI too. Hehe just because PI more quiter and not so crowded like GI. But yeah I think GI is more interesting for mostly people.
Wellcome to jakarta again😀.. So I think this.videos before PPKM EMERGENCY IN JAKARTA ...I THINK ALL FOREIGN FROM BALI MUST BACK TO BALI, BEFORE THEY CAN'T GO ANYWHERE ALONG THIS PROGRAM PPKM EMERGENCY NASIONALY. **KEEP THE HEALTHY GUYS MAY GOD HELP US AND GIVE US HEALTHY...amin..ya Rabbal'alamiin 👐
Indonesia is doing this whole pandemic correctly, by allowing businesses to remain open, sadly over here in Malaysia, we're doing everything to destroy the economy by locking everything down! It's so sad here. I want to get out. Cheers to the 4 of you. It's so wonderful to see there is still life in the midst of CoV-19.
Appreciate that you still dish out these great looking videos to entertain us at home, would be great if you could put a lengthy and obnoxious disclaimer that this was not shot or done during our current restriction. this is good for your viewers as to not giving them the idea that you should still go out and about at these scary times, and to avoid "bule kok masih bisa jalan-jalan" comments directed to you.
I'm from NYC....but there's too many crimes...during this covid lock down.I was Born there,and the last time I was there was in 2011.Sure it's so much different,but also the crimes much higher everywhere.....
You should seriously meet up with Kristian Hansen again. He might be able to give you some much needed creative input. His vids are in a different league, and worth subscribing to.
Is it acceptable for a foreigner to be wearing shorts while walking around in Jakarta? I thought I had heard no, but I saw several guys in the background of this video that did.
I am Chinese Indonesian and I can wear short and tanktop with flip flop when visiting shopping mall. But avoid to wear those when visiting religious sites.
There’s a lot of beautifful place in our country, enjoy your adventure, don’t leave Indonesia too soon 😄
thanks so much for watching Muhammad! Not yet
life style in Jakarta its really cosmopolitan , you feel not as tourist when you are in Jakarta. in Bali you feel as tourist that is big different between Jakarta and Bali
yes there is such a contrast between bali and jakarta
I totally agree! Nobody tried to take advantage of me in Jakarta but it happened several times in Bali
Yeah true, Belitung is wonderfull island. Clear water & beautiful nature. For all foreigner, you must make a schedule for visit to Belitung when you're in indonesia.
Belitung was so shocking! Can't wait to show the amazing footage from there!
I also love Jakarta and its surroundings (Jabodetabek), never bored. Unfortunately because of covid there is no music festival in Jakarta, usually very crowded and exciting. Anyway greetings from Bekasi
thanks for watching Fikri! yes hopefully after the restrictions are lifted

Wow, it must be a pretty rare sight to see such a busy airport! We know what you mean about the joys of convenience in larger cities! Have a great time and stay safe!
so many people leaving bali that day haha, yes we love visiting big cities just for the sheer convenience of it
Yes, the convenience is what makes me stay in Jakarta despite the traffic. It has almost everything. Btw how I've missed shopping malls! I haven't been outside for almost 3 weeks now. And have to stay that way for at least another 2 weeks due to the lockdown.
yeah its a shame we're in another lockdown 😔😔
This lockdown is absolute bllsht. Until end of month now. then what? another month and another and another? I need to see a dentist too... can't
I love a good airport lounge, I got a priority pass when I went away in 2019 and it was soooooo good! 🤩
yes i use them all the time as well! haha
oh i love the way that you promoting some place in Indonesia guys. That will be make local people economy increase , because after you promoting surely many people will know that place.
Thank you guys☺️🙏🏼
Before watching this i had no desire to visit Jakarta, now you totally changed my mind . I love big citys and very fond of a fine 🍸 cocktail . My bill for fine spirits is usually 80.00 dollars. The skybar is on my bucket list .
sky bar is super cool! Great views and drinks are good, go during happy hour for sure they got a beautiful sunset there
Maybe you should do an update on the new entry and travel restrictions (vaccination and PCR tests).
Hope you enjoyed Belitung, had a great time there 10 years ago.
yeah i'll probably do an update video after the belitung videos are finished!

@@alexandwhite yeah that typical cloth mask is not enough you need to wear medical mask + that cloth mask.. according to Dr. Faucci of CDC also. Take care Alex and Kinta !
well, it is also everywhere in Bali… thats why now Bali is under lockdown as well.
More like they are worried about demonstrations against corruption.
@@RizTheUrbanExplorer stop spreading fear 😅
Is the airport lounge free of charge?
try nusa penida island
been there before, but a long time ago! Will have to check it out again soon after the lockdown
You can visit some waterfalls in Bogor when you are in Jakarta
bondowoso, Jepara, Kota Pontianak, Kota Bandar Lampung, etc..
So much to see..
I’m in Jakarta for a few days , any top recommendations to do :)
all the video topics i did in jakarta on my channel are highly recommended 😁
I've been to Belitung Island, it turns out that Belitung Island has a very beautiful beach compared to Bali, but somehow the island doesn't know much
completely agree! Can't wait to show off some of the beautiful islands around belitung
@@alexandwhite such a beautiful island i been there stayed for a week the roads really good compare in Bali
You said you wanna try commuter line, when?
haven't had time to just because everytime we visit jakarta we're passing through to our next destination haha
The hotel you're staying was Artotel Thamrin, right?
I like that thematic Hotel, in the morning you can find many foods around, and in the evening you can walk to Sabang Street, also to find some delicious foods. Claypot Popo is my favorit!
I am really excited about belitong. Ohhh how i missed that island like crazy

Its just funny for me how foreigners said Grand Indonesia their fav mall. When I'm Indonesian (and mostly my friends) not really like go to GI because the crowd. We prefer to hangout at Pasific Place or Plaza Indonesia, or currently trend Astha Mall.

Even we wear sandals or flip flop to the malls 😂...it's a tropical country..shorts are part of our lives
I am Chinese Indonesian and I can wear short and tanktop with flip flop when visiting shopping mall. But avoid to wear those when visiting religious sites.
Be careful about covid 19/delta varian
Have a nice trip. This is very beautiful country in the world. I’m very proud. 😁
