      The shipping port with old Schooners is called Sunda Kelapa. It is quite well known, and the village you are referring to is like a shanty town which houses most of the fishermen and their families. Lovely people and right next to Sunda Kelapa. Been there a few times.

    Honestly, Jakarta is one of the best cities I've lived in. Great food (seriously all cuisines mostly cause the food scene there is renowned), the shopping and the malls are to die for! Super friendly people and you receive such prestigious quality at a much lower price compared to other countries (food, cinema, spa, salon etc). Hope more people visit Jakarta! there's a ton of places to go that wasn't shown in this video

      i would do the travel vlogging stuff if an employer hired me to do this on a 8h daily basis and was receiving a stable lay cheque while being fully covered for all travel expenses. so my pay check goes straight to my pocket. what would be icing if my employer could also pay for my spouse to travel with me as well.

    Hey Christian. I remember when I was in 2nd year college I saw your travel vlog on a go pro camera in the Philippines, I was more likely 17 that time now I'm 23 and OMG you grew so fast it unbelievable. You are one of the people who inspired me to do travel vlogging but took me 5 years to FINALLY push myself to pursue what I really wajt and that is to do my own channel. I know it's 2020 and I know there is a lot of vloggers to catch up with. I hope *crossfingers* it's not too late.
    BTW I'm. Always watching your video.

      It's because the traffick jam that could be spent for hours if you travelled across the city that sometimes make us annoyed a lot, or worst, the flood, just like in the video, but it could be worse and it's a very common phenomena in Jakarta, that's the reason why many people prefer other place like Bali, Yogyakarta, East Java, South Sumatra, Riau, Nusa Tenggara, or even Papua where Raja Ampat located

    And yeah, thousand islands (pulau seribu) is a wonderfull place, try to stay little longer and explore that place more 😁
    And I think only in Jakarta you could find food from around the country 😅

  • @tarulieliza3255

    Jakarta is not built for tourists so if you want to visit, you really need to ask a local. I myself am a local and besides some cool cafes, I wouldn't know where I'd take tourists. Plus, the traffic means that you can only do one, maybe two things in a day. I see it as more of a "business destination". There are so many other places to go to in Indonesia that are so worth it tho (belitung, flores,, lombok, puncak, bandung, kalimantan riverboat stay, raja empat, komodo islands, etc.)
