Thanks guys!
Maybe I haven't introduced myself to some of you, especially you, Mr. Jimbo... even though I did so in one of the posts (Hillary, Obama).
I'm an Indonesian lady who has been living most of her life in many countries, therefore, my knowledge of the technology situation in Indonesia is not up to par with you all.
Yes, I do have a large family in Jakarta and quite a few friends in Bali too. However, after so many years of absence, I did visit Jakarta in October 2006 to purchase the house there and noticed that noone seems to have Internet in their homes (these are well-to-do people, mind you). One even said is too expensive. Thus for my question to you folks in Bali who perhaps could say otherwise and I'm glad to hear that it's so easy and inexpensive to have it at home. That was all I wanted to hear.
I hope this site is a free site where everyone can join in as after all, we do have something in common in that we all are connected to either Bali or Indonesia, wouldn't you agree?
I have been in Bali many times before - dare I say - before perhaps any one of you have set foot in this paradise? And to add to that, I even had great, fun and wild time, to say the least.
So hope to have a good interaction with you, happy people!
I discovered this site by browsing in one of the real estate websites, looking for a villa in Bali that I might also intend to buy but dream of for the moment.
Lurking in after a few months, I decided to join only 2-3 days ago as I do love reading some of the posts here as besides it's informative, it also brings me nostalgia of Bali and Indonesia.
Mr. Jimbo...I hope I'm wrong you're not implying that I shouldn't join in?
Anyway, I will try to visit Bali in August as I'm invited to come and stay in one of the beautiful resorts there by the owner. I might come with my husband if he could take the time off working in Dubai and Iran.
Ciao from Milan and arrivederci!
