I was amazed how many other members in Jakarta share the same interests as me. And some of them come from Norway, too !

Hello to all Americans in Jakarta! Are you interested in getting to know fellow expats in Jakarta?

Find People Who Share Your Passions
Despite its nickname of the “Big Durian”, Jakarta can be a great place for expats, especially with the InterNations community helping you to make the most of your experience!
Do you want to continue with your hobbies — or discover new ones — while living in Jakarta? There’s a variety of InterNations Groups you can join, including everything from sightseeing to hiking. These are run by dedicated Consuls with at least one activity each month, such as dinners in Jakarta’s finest restaurants or outings with other expats to explore all that the Indonesian capital has to offer, from the Kota Intan Bridge, a 17th-century bridge in Old Jakarta, to Monas, the National Monument and attached museum celebrating Indonesia’s independence, and much more.

It's a really helpful site: Via InterNations, we found an international playgroup for our kids (6 and 8 years old) here in Jakarta.
