Jogja was the first stop on our epic Indon getaway, and definitely my fave city in Indonesia, so far. My favorite thing about Indonesia is no two places are alike. At all. Other than the consistently amazing food, of course. Jogja is everything Jakarta’s not, and definitely a place I would love to live in. Even with over 3 million people, it has a great small town charm, and is full of awesome things like batik and gudeg. I thought Borobudur and Prambanan temples were a little underwhelming, and excessively overpriced for foreigners, but the city itself was fantastic, I’m so tempted to go stay there for a while to learn Bahasa…. if only I can find 6 months to spare….
