what i really want is to live in a city with character.
you know what i mean -- cities that seem to be living, breathing. cities that seem to have stories of their own, and are whispering them to us through their buildings, their alleys, their people. these cities will automatically drag you towards them; inviting you to look at them a little more carefully and walk through their roads a little further. 
a city where you can actually take a long walk in the late afternoon.
a city that never really sleeps, so you're never alone in the night. and there's always some place you can go to when home is not where you want to be. wink wink.
it's got potential.

a city where you can actually take a long walk in the late afternoon.

a city with marvelous places begging to be discovered.
a city where the people are just as fun, colorful, interesting, and unique as the city itself.
maybe one day jakarta will be just like those cities
it's got potential.
