Modern living in Asia
After having arrived in Jakarta, me and my brother drove to the city of Bandung, south east of the capital.
My brother’s friend, a Chinese businessman, let us stay in one of his stylish apartments and we even had his driver at our command. It took me some time to consider this "as normal".
The days in the area of Bandung went by very quickly. We explored the city, got a taste of its horrible traffic, drove to the near by tea plantations and treated ourselves with numerous restaurant visits.
What a start for my Indonesia trip! A soft and easy one, as I found out later in Sumatra. Because later there where no fancy apartments any more and also the climate wasn’t as comforting as in Bandung…
