But yea, I do encourage trying it at least once for the experience if you are already in Jakarta. As mentioned, perhaps you are able to appreciate something that I cannot.

Oh CP, left my heart there, lol! Hope to return sometime soon, unfortunately, my company doesn't have any operations in DG. Btw, it has been raining heavily in Jakarta and it is flooded now. Probably have to work from the hotel today and perhaps pay my final visit to Alexis later in the evening. I would like to have some Korean tonight!
good fr. Was there for the past week but didn't do anything. Also heard about alexis from my local colleagues but they also said it is not cheap. Din dare try but anyway staying far from town and traffic is horrendous.
