I've decided Jakarta is where I'm gonna geomax to. Jakarta is a big city though. I was browsing booking websites and I realized that I don't even know where I should stay.

Which part of Jakarta? I think I remember reading somewhere that south Jakarta was better, but it's been a while.
 
Thamrin Residences is the best place to go to. It's nice, upper middle class, cheap, and at the city center near Grand Indonesia.

Good call center work to be found for English speakers in Jakarta I've heard. Traffic's fucked though. I might visit Indo one day but I don't think I'll ever go there. If I go to Bali for a family vacation some time in the next decade I'll definitely have to hop over to Jakarta as well.
 
Last time i asked and researched Jakarta there was no consensus on good places.

Most told me to get a place close to malls, but theres not good walkable places it seems. Nothing equivalent to Thailand in terms of easiness to get around or BGC in terms of walkability in Manila.
 
indeed. there is nothing. you will be taking taxis everywhere unless you live on top of a mall, and then the only place you can walk is to the mall. just try to be central
 
Jakarta gets a lot of hype, if someone who’s not old or fat can go there and give a more relatable field report that would be amazing 🙏

Nothing against fat and old people, and I could go there myself but the city sounds really bad and only seems worth it if the geomaxxing is next level

i think most people have said the same
it's one of the least saturated cities with good pussy BUT the city sucks so much most people leave, its even more hated than Manila, cause i guess there at least they speak english and you have Makati/BGC
