Davita This is indonesia not Hong Kong or Canada or Scotland or even USA . please adjust your thinking to where you are
I'm very familiar with life in Indonesia Smoke...I first visited Jakarta in 1963 and Bali in 1975. I married an Indonesian in 1987 and visited her family often, sometimes for a month or two. We bought an apartment off plan, in Jakarta, in 2005, and lived with my wife's family until the building was finished in 2007, wherupon we moved in. We bought a villa in Bali 3 years ago and now commute between Bali and Jakarta. However, I much prefer to stay in Bali and find excuses to let my wife go back alone.:eagerness:
No matter where anyone one lives an open-mind is essential. I have lived outside of my own UK environment most of my adult life.... Malaya/Singapore for 6 years, Hong Kong for 16 and Canada/Arizona for 23 years....so I believe I can adjust my thinking to where I'm living and I don't really need anyone to assist me in that matter...thank you anyway.
BTW I've also been to Lombok but didn't think much of it except the potential to develop the south beaches. If you go to live there you might need to adjust!:icon_wink:
