[Travel] Jakarta advise please

[HastingsSeagull]

On a visa run for the weekend.

Staying out West near the airport. Looking for advise on what to pack in Sunday after a likely chilled out Saturday (unless any football going on locally) and any recommendations for a place to watch the game rather than just my hotel room.

Cheers as always! Moderately confident expat traveller, 35, up for most things. Am solo for the weekend.

Jalan Jaska always seemed like a good place for such person, pretty sure any football that is being shown live, will be on down there somewhere too, ( about 10 years ago since I was there last tho)

Thanks will take a look.

Jaksa just aint what it used to be... you'll find football on there though

Further south, Eastern Promises in Kemang (Jalan Kemang Raya) is a pretty fun and often-packed expat bar / indian restaurant / venue that will show the football, although not necessarily our football...

Blimey thought this was a direct appeal to me! Enjoy your visit...

He’s a bit feisty in the political threads but seems an alright person.

I went to the East Indies with my wife.

Jakata?

No, she went on her own accord!!!

I'll get my coat. (In fact, in view of the weather, I might get several coats)

Had all my money, flight tickets, passport/visas etc nicked off me as I snoozed on a train between Jakarta and yogyakarta many years ago.

I'm wondering if I have some northern blood somewhere in my ancestry because I still hate them for it.

Be careful would be my advice.

We like one another in real life, no doubt we will meet up at the Amex at some point and share a couple of Beers...
