    Having Children's Tylenol and Motrin shipped

    Is it possible for my mom to ship us some children's Tylenol and Motrin in light of the medicine issue that popped up recently here in Indonesia. It would obviously be brand new in an unopened box shipped UPS. I just want to make sure that they wouldn't confiscate it and customs. If this seems...

    US for IDR exchange

    Anyone going to the US anytime soon? I have 2 hundred dollar bills that the money changer wouldn't take because of blemishes. They are perfectly good in the US, but not perfect enough for Indonesia. The exchange would be for 3,112,000 IDR, but I'll take 3,000,000 if anyone is interested in the...

    Finally made it. Would love to meet people!

    Well, we've been here a month now and I'm ready to meet some other expats. I'm a lady in my 30s, have a 2 year old. We moved from the US and are here accompanying my husband who is a foreign researcher on a Fulbright looking at the Cold War and the Suharto period. I'm an audio engineer and...

    Japanese Encephalitis Vaccine

    We're currently getting all of our shots for the move soon and this one is like 450 dollars a shot for a two-shot program, which is an insane amount of money to spend for 3 people on top of the other shots we are being recommended, which are each like 100 dollars or more. What shots did some...

    Going to College

    What does it take for a foreigner to go to college there. I'm interested in the Institute of Arts in Jakarta and I guess I'm wondering what would be good to get before we travel so I could be ready to apply.

    How much does furniture actually cost in Jakarta.

    My husband and I are trying to figure out the most cost effective way to minimally furnish our apartment (we move in September) and I was looking mostly at Ikea because they deliver, but a friend of mine says we can buy from a street store for less than IKEA. Most of the furniture I'm looking at...

    Artist Rental Spaces

    Anything like that in central Jakarta? Just like a spot I can paint and hand build ceramics in. I'm considering just renting a studio apartment in the building we're looking at but I'm not sure how having a painting studio in an apartment would go.

    Women safety when in public

    I know this is probably a really weird thing to be worried about, but when we move to Indonesia later this year we will not have a car and my husband will often be working and I will be alone with our daughter and on foot or public transportation. Is it safe for a woman and child to walk alone...

    Park Royale Apartments

    Anyone have any info on these places? I would really like rent here because it seems a little less hectic than Thamrin Residences or Cosmo Mansion, but I have literally no clue. Any tips on an apartment under 15 mil with 2-3 bedrooms within a 30 min transit ride to the national monument would be...
