Jakarta is a bit different from what I expected; it is more developed and somewhat cosmopolitan as some have said. The traffic however is very much like the traffic in India although it is a bit more organized and there are a handful of actual traffic lights. Similar to India it does take about 30-45 minutes to drive about 3 miles.
I started my first day in the field today and everyone was very friendly and I am looking forward to working with everyone from the Indonesian offices. I have yet to have any authentic Indonesia food but I look forward to trying some soon; it seems the area I am staying is catered to many ex-pats so there are lots of Italian, India, Pizza joints and Starbucks to go around.
