"24 may 2003 - my travels!" Personal Page by belgianchocolate

Me and Frederik in Banjarmasin.

On that day I was surfing the net
for information and I discovered
virtual tourist. I booked us 2 nights
in Jakarta before I even knew
anything about the city. And before
consulting my friends.
Christa said , she loved to avoid
Jakarta. Hmm... I just liked the sound of
the word Jakarta.
That is how I became a member.

Anyway - in June we went to Borneo-Kalimantan
to go and visit the orang utan project
we support with our own organisation.
You wont find a page on that adventure.
Tourist aren't allowed , these babys
go back to nature.
Really , it works , over 450 are learning
to survive and getting used to the forest again.
We stayed between them for a week.
But we did visit Banjarmasin and Palangka raya.
Those are the first attempts to build pages.
I didn't had a digital camera back then
and my English has improved since then.
(thanks to VT - yes).
The nice thing on that trip was we
found also somebody to show us
a bit of Jakarta. I discovered
the spririt of this website right away.
It was @rie or the lady miss Ukirsari
we met for the first time.
We liked that so much , next time
in Jakarta we met again. :-)
I treasure that experience.
And If you want to know , I really love
Jakarta. I don't know why , but the city
talks to me.
