Happy SideTrips all
STL
Out of all the YT vloggers you are absolutely me and the wife's favorite because of how informative you are about the areas. You've become "Our Canadian friend" when my wife ask if you've put out any videos. Thank you for sharing your travels!
Thanks Mr & Mrs 'madmax' (great username btw;) Heading to some off the beaten path islands next, thanks for coming along! STL
@@SideTripLife Thankyou , sorry u cant get away from the usual Canadian good stereotype of polite friendly Candians in my eyes too, your videos are truly helpful, one day hoping to live in Thailand.
Great vid, I've been to Jakarta a few times, remember dancing on the streets of the backpacker section of Jakarta when a band were shooting their video, then seeing myself drunkenly dancing on MTV Asia a few weeks later, happy days :)
cool!
I'd never thought of Jakarta as a good holiday destination until now STL. I've been to Bali 5 times (first time in 1988) and have always enjoyed it there. Great video mate 👍👍🦘🦘
Thanks Bill. I was pretty surprised at how modern Jakarta is in areas (CBD + MRT etc) and pleased to see well preserved in other areas (Old Batavia/Kota Tua) for example: czcams.com/video/b7hFYO0ILW0/video.html
Turns out Jakarta is also a perfect base to hop to some idyllic islands off the beaten path, as we'll see in next vid....
Jakarta looks amazing! Thanks so much for the video, I would never in a million years have thought of going to Jakarta and now its the place I want to got to the most!!
I thought the same up until I first came here in May of 2005..Great city, friendly people, some stunning looking women unlike what you'll see in Thailand or Thr Philippines.
And apart from two years I spent in my home city of Melbourne Australia during the recent covid situation , I've been here on and off ( mainly on ) for the last 18.5 years.
Oh, and so incredibly cheap compared to back home in good old ' Oz '
*,The
Now you're just rubbing it in 😂 at how much fun it is at the Jaya pub
Really need to visit that Jaya Pub next time I'm in Jakarta. Such an amazing vibe!! And thanks for tipping the lovely hardworking Grab car lady :)
Jaya Pub was the most fun I've had in many travels! That hard working taxi driver was such a nice lady, glad to tip :) STL
An island that only 1 in 1000 of us would ever have heard of? I'm on the edge of my seat and looking forward to the next one.
Coming next week!
Great video very busy city people seem very friendly. 👍😎
Indonesian people from Jakarta to Lake Toba have been warm, welcoming, friendly and helpful everywhere I've been :)
I love the concept of that village on a mall roof - never seen that before 😂
Looked the night view from the condo too👍
Thx, that rooftop housing estate really was a cool concept!
The houses on top of the mall is such a great idea
Agreed. Great use of urban space
Loved the video, I guess Jakarta is a cool place to visit, its a shame that I have put it off for so long……..thanks for changing my mind STL
Thx Howey! I know by your vids that you get to a lot of places so Jakarta would be cool to explore, plus a great jumping off spot to some idyllic isles, ahead...
Great video and great find. Fantastic value and location. Thank you
What an amazing bar❤ great video as always
Cheers Mark!
Man, that Jaya pub is awesome! I dont even like bars much anymore, but if i was in Jakarta, I'm scared I'd be there way too often.
They already had me coming back to back lol
That pub looks like a blast - great vid as always!
Thx, was so fun!
Another great video. We're booked for Hua Hin and PKK over Jan/Feb but Jakarta and Indonesia are definitely next... Lokking forward to the next leg of your journey. Take care.
Thanks! Great to see a few of my Thai-centric followers watching this series, the rest are really missing out! Idyllic tropical isles ahead....
Aaah great to see you took my advice to visit the Tanah Abang mall.
You can literally get lost there. So many tiny shops. You take a couple of left turns, and before you know it, the exit is nowhere to be seen 😅
Thanks! Yep, maze of tiny shops, too bad I arrived late in the day but hopefully gave a look/feel
Nice video. Always informative. Been to Bali and surrounding islands but this makes me want to explore Jakarta.
STL, my favorite Canadian Asian tour guide, cheers mate.
Loved this video, I need to get over to that Jaya pub 🎉
it's been goin since '75 apparently so prolly still be here lol
Come to bandung and surabaya
Will! Whoosh!
Awesome second bar! The Shang honestly reminded me a lot of the location on University in Toronto, for better and for worse... Keep up the great work STL!
TO has a place like Jaya Pub?? Gotta go to TO lol! In my hometown of Van we had a place called Hurricane Pub which was somewhat like it. But no place I've been to can match 'this mess is a place'/Jaya Pub's fantastic vibe!
I have a wash machine like that at my place in Florida. I love it cleans clothes really well.
Yet another fun and exciting video….great way to start the top of the morning ☕️
Top o' the mornin' :)
I truly Love your videos!! I wish I could travel with you❤❤
You are! Thanks for watching :)
Just got me my subscription... Great videos 😊
Loads of thanks Monty! Welcome! STL
You should visit borobudur temple
YES! So many amazing places to see in Indonesia. Here's my adventures so far: czcams.com/video/A2edCEJIuGc/video.html
Wow that boat was cool!
Hello from CA & many thanks 4 hotel/condo videos!
Thanks for watching :)
As always a great video. I need to go to " this mess is a place" 😂
Thx! Best slogan ever ;)
Excellent , excellent , excellent bro ... ❤❤❤
Yes yes yes! I can’t wait to see where you’re going! 🏝️ ✈️ 🧳
Thx! Indonesian tropical Isles off the beaten path ahead....
I was born and grew up in Jakarta, would love to go back. Hoping pollution’s getting better.
How long can a Canadian stay in Indonesia on a tourist visa? I am in Thailand, next Vietnam and after seeing your video perhaps Jakarta if I can get a condo by the month at those prices!
Just got a 30 day visa on arrival and can extend another 30. They don't state it in the ads but monthly rate likely based on the usual 12 months deal. However, note they also indicate 3 months is possible - example: "For Rent Cosmo Terrace Apartment 2 Bedrooms Fully Furnished US $ 500 per Month or US $1200 for Three Months" www.jakarta-apartment.net/category/apartment/cosmo-terrace/
Love the bar crowd
What...no STL singing on stage? 😉 Thanks for another amazing installment STL. 🎉
Enjoyed the music and party along with you. Can’t believe they sang Enter Sandman. 😅Awesome! 😁
lol you prolly know from a couple older vids if STL is singing dogs are howling! Their Sandman version was fantastic as was the whole set!
Jakarta is a city that is forgotten by tourists even though Jakarta is the capital of Indonesia, btw if you are sad come to Jakarta immediately and hopefully your heart will be happy afterwards 😊
I met nothing but friendly people everywhere in Jakarta, thanks for making me feel so welcome, I'll be back!
I’m excited for the next one.
Idyllic isles off the beaten path ahead....
Excellent ! Thanks, from Colorado.
Thx! Love mountain high Colorado! In prev vid the whole place was singing John Denver: czcams.com/video/b7hFYO0ILW0/video.html
I really like your video Concept.. Its more informative and deep.. Thsnk stl
Thank you :)
wonderful ... and a lot fewer ads... thanks for taking us along for the ride.
Fewer ads as fewer of my core Thailand-centric viewers are watching, thus CZcams is not promoting it. So thanks for watching, much appreciated! STL
That's sad as your content is fantastic..I'm already planning a trip to Indonesia because of what I've seen on your channel.
Thanks!
Thank YOU!
Thank you this is great stuff! Enjoy and sometime I am hoping you will do a comparison with Thailand?
Thank you! Tough to compare the two but there are similarities from Mega-City buzz and energy to amazing tropical beaches (& some off the beaten path tropical islands, ahead;) STL
Man , just came across your channel , love it 😎 Is your name Chris
Thanks and nope. STL
Omg, Jaya Pub 😂👍
Jaya Pub has been going a long time now. I used to go there in 1980
Hey Jude brought tears to my eyes. Took me back to my heydays.
awwww....
Laaaa laaa laaa lalalala, lalalala hey STL. Thanks for the great video. Cheers 🍻
hehe
Always enjoy your vids.
Why would you change from the hotel to the condo just for one night? Or you needed a base to store stuff during your trip round the islands and beaches?
Just wanted to check out condos as I'm interested in a possible home base for a few months travel around Java/Sumatra in future.
Great video again! (lucky charms btw haha...)
lol
Currently in Indonesia and waiting on your next video with bated breath....
Thanks @devonasakai, coming up....
You got a big LOL! from Linda and I with your Diet Potato reaction.
Thx guys, still scratching my head over that one lol
Hey Jude, from the greatest Band ever, The Beatles
Super
Verey nice
Thanks
Most welcome
hi ,, the pub, looks like the place to go,, i,ll check it out when i,m there next year,, 👍
Apparently that Jaya Pub has been going since '75 (and not changed much since;) so hopefully will still be going and waiting for you. Catch it on a Fri/Sat night, should be hopping! STL
I wish I could fit into your carryon. Stowaway warning! Great vids.
lol
Pizza Hut in Jakarta is also verry good!
you are the best video editor. best information + entertainment and you don't ramble. but where is the 290 per month residence?
It is in the building I stayed in, pls see the insert with the advertised prices.
Thanks You a nice video, jalan jalan, kalau malam indah (at night beautiful ) new area of jakarta, to Pik 2 New Batavia, Aloha beach, china town ( North Jakarta )
Great tips, thanks :)
Bats is my old fave bar 😂👍
When I start my day with a Scottish breakfast like you did, I always get a stomachache. I can’t stand Mickey D’s anymore.
haha actually usually have muesli fruit and yoghurt but in a pinch...
Magically delicious is Lucky Charms😄
;)
I love your life man
I'm travelling on a budget but still pretty lucky (and grateful) to be able to do this. When I hear other vloggers whinging about 'tough travel day' or 'this is hard' etc etc I just kinda roll my eyes lol
Love the content , what website are you finding the vacation sites(rentals)
Thanks, pls see in description
THE TRAVELLER ALWAYS MISSED TO EXPLORE FROM JAKARTA BESIDE CITY LIFE STYLE IS JAKARTA HAVE SOME PRETTY ISLANDS AND BEACHES TO SNORKELING..YOU CAN GO TO KEPULAUAN SERIBU ..ITS BEAUTIFUL AREA WITH CRYSTAL CLEAR WATERS..
Upcoming I will visit the MOST beautiful Islands close to Jakarta... please stay tuned...
Lucky Charms, they're magically delicious.
Yeah. ...Fruit Loops was Toucan Sam was telling us to follow our nose, it always knows. 😂 I'm getting old. 🎉
Another great video. Question i see for hotels you recommend "Agoda" i have been looking at locations on agoda and have found them to be very "pricey" in terms of their "added taxes and charges " equalling rougly 20 % of the actual price. How do you account for that extra cost?
Thx James. Also for bringing up a valid caution to always check any 'extra fees' as is becoming norm (frustratingly) on many booking sites. In this case, $18 becomes $21.60 after taxes (still a fantastic bargain imho). However, should I factor local and other taxes into every price first? Also for restaurant prices, entrance fees, drinks, parks and on and on? On that note, should all restaurants, Parks, Museums, Cars for sale ads, House prices, etc etc etc be made to show not the stated or desired price but rather the price after local and other applicable taxes? I suppose most would prefer to see the final price all in, with whatever local & other taxes etc. In that case we better get changing from 'Burger Special $4.99' to $5.48 and across industries. Fine by me but could take some time.
Did you get the condo on Facebook or airb&b?
You sure seek out some great locations for digs. Bushyboy Oz.
Cheers Bushyboy Oz
next PIK jakarta
Curious where you are going next. Although I have a nice place on Gili T. booked for two weeks next June, I am still a bit undecided between Gili, Lake Toba, or wherever you go next. Jakarta will just be 1 night hotel stays, coming and going on my round the world trip.
I think it's Belitung island
@peterpritzl3354 You're doing a round the world trip? Fantastic! The Gilis are lovely but not sure I could spend 2 weeks on Gili T. Personally would consider boating over to Lombok after a few days, loved it! czcams.com/video/iw8dTTCdi94/video.html
Lake Toba remains one of my fav places in the world: czcams.com/video/E_HO4RFs3ss/video.html
However, the next Indonesian Islands I'm going to may top all, we'll see upcoming. STL
Usually I just do Maui, where I live to Munich for a month in summer, buy since I am flying on miles, and transatlantic has become so 'expensive', I am flying the other way round, and figured, I do a few stops in Asia.@@SideTripLife
@carlispelullaby6504 ;) czcams.com/video/u9jt3BILpSY/video.html
looks like you gonna be Jaya Pub regular
haha possible!
STL you make the energizer bunny look lazy LOL , how do you keep going ?? Enjoy and thank you ....
Thanks Karl! Doing some Island hopping next.... STL
Im first. Great job as usual.
CONFIRMED! (was 1st;)
Can you do Philippines plsssssssss
I'm surprised that your mic picked up the band music as good as it did....
just my trusty 3 yo android phone and no mic lol
Don't be disheartened the McAfee trail has gone cold.
I'm sure you'll pick it up again next video.
;) czcams.com/video/b7hFYO0ILW0/video.html
What website are you using to find those monthly rates? Thanks for the videos!
The daily rate ($16) was from AirBnb/ Monthly rate was based on 12 months I believe, however, note they also indicate 3 months is possible - example: "For Rent Cosmo Terrace Apartment 2 Bedrooms Fully Furnished US $ 500 per Month or US $1200 for Three Months" www.jakarta-apartment.net/category/apartment/cosmo-terrace/
Edit to add, note you guys have a YT channel, will have a look! Cheers, STL
@@SideTripLife Awesome! Thanks for the info! and thank you means a lot :) We can't wait to get back to Asia, came back to toronto to work a lilttle but January can't come soon enough!!
You have the most amazing life 👍 Retired???
Naaa, well, sorta, sold my biz in Bkk so travelling for now
Next tropical island in Jakarta ?
You'll see...
Lucky charms
oops
Lucky charms are magically delicious not fruit loops.
Doh!! lol
yayayaya uh uh
@JeSuisHulk lol
Missed opportunity at 25:36 ?
"I spent a lot of money on booze, birds and fast cars the rest I just squandered " George Best R.I.P
Noted, however at least the sentiment was there. R.I.P. indeed legend.
Iss the $290 month to month or do you need a 6 month or 1 year contract?
The ads say from 4.6 mil/month but I suspect that's for a typical 12 month deal. There was one ad stating 3 months however, so perhaps can negotiate? Regardless, the usual rule of thumb is the longer the term the better the prices.
Are they still smoking in the clubs? Thanks for sharing.
some do personally no
yes, most if not all places have atleast smoking sections. indonesia almost anything is possible :)
I want to buy that car and bring it back to the US. Have you ever thought of that?
Could I work a call center job with that internet speed?😂
Probably but I can't make those recommendations if someone's job is on the line.
@@SideTripLife so better to live in Thailand where internet is fast?
Surprised you missed “British Columbia” in the fruit aisle at 18:11 😂
lol yep, just seen that now! Missed some homegrown cherries but prolly pretty spendy (esp vs say picking off my pop's tree;)
where is the link for the $290 per month condo or is this click bate?
Pls see in the description
Fruit loops are not magically delicious LUCKY CHARMS are😅😊
23 usd is expensive for you? you guys come all over Indonesia especially bali and act so so rich i really wonder are these people really rich back home
lol I'm certainly not rich but I do like to spoil myself once in a while (thus enjoyed that burger & beer, thx ;)
Too jumbled.
Ok, will try to not add so much content and put so much effort in and instead do simple easy to make and follow vids like others ala 'This is what we ate at Jakarta McDonalds' or 'Jakarta street food challenge' zzzz lol
Jakarta is unfriendly,polluted so badly that it will 100% affect you and lacks anything to see as a tourist ,why would anyone stay there,yoir video makes it look ok,but it isnt anywhere near that.
Personally had a blast in Kota, super friendly too: czcams.com/video/b7hFYO0ILW0/video.html
Also amazed how easy it is to get around: czcams.com/video/Ow5AFEVkAZE/video.html
