It’s polluted, noisy, over-crowded, the traffic is appalling and it’s sinking: is there anything to like about Jakarta? We think so!
Jakarta was always in the plan when we set off to sail from one end of Sumatra to the other. As much as we love isolated places we also love to explore metropolises. And where better than Jakarta, the most populated city in SE Asia on the most populated island in the world!
It is a city of contrasts: poverty and wealth; beauty and squalor; history and modernity; pain and joy. We were met invariably by smiles and a welcome everywhere we went.
We hope we have captured something of Jakarta’s spirit here and that you enjoy our short tribute to this mesmerising city. But what will happen to it when the capital relocates to Kalimantan on the island of Borneo…
Don’t forget to follow the boat!
Peace and fair winds
Liz, Jamie and Millie ❤️
