Going abroad has its own problem. One of them is about the exchange rate. Going to Indonesia means than you should know the exchange rate from Rupiah to Dollar. But one thing more important is, how much the reasonable price of things in Rupiahs is. I once go to Thailand and had a dinner. Then the bill come and we paid the bill. After that, the waiter kept waiting near us, perhaps looking for some tips. Since we don’t really know the range of price in bath (also that was our first night in Thailand), we only tipped him about 0.1 dollar! He looked disappointed and then left us. We talked about that and later we realized that was only 0.1 dollar, no wonder he felt sad LOL

Photo Story: Tidung Island

People in Jakarta are very frustrated with their daily activities. They spend a lot of time in traffic jam, stressful working environment and pollution exposure. It is very understandable that between these tiring activity in jakarta, people need to escape and enjoy their lives. One of the most favorite places is Tidung Island in Kepulauan Seribu (literally means A Thousand Island) district in the north of Jakarta.

Tidung Island is one of the villages in South Thousand Islands (Kepulauan Seribu selatan), Thousand Islands regency, Jakarta, Indonesia. Although Thousand Island is a district of the crowded and busy Jakarta, the situation is very different in here. Only about 3 hours boating from Jakarta main land with passenger ship, Tidung is well known for escape and leisure time. A few tips to go to thousand islands are they have specific islands with different range of prices to stay, and also some specific islands only for certain activities. For example, the price range for Tidung Island is much lower than Bidadari, where the price of a hotel room in Bidadari Island is about the same with Tidung’s whole tour package! Indeed, different price means different facilities, but never think that you will get rubbish facilities in Tidung. You’ll stay in homey local houses with air conditioned room and prime hospitality. Also free bicycle to go around the Island! It is not a hotel, but to interact with the local will be unforgettable moment.

Why Bali is Superior: Notes Before You Explore Other Islands in Indonesia

It is very common that Indonesia is misunderstood as India since the name is similar. Some people might think that Indonesia is one of unknown country in Middle East, which is most western afraid to come. But when people say Bali, they agreed that it is a beautiful island every people want to have romantic travel in.
