Day OneHundred-Thirteen


Introducing Lucman-
Lucman is our driver.  It is often said your driver is your most important staff member.  You depend on them like no other, entrust your safety and kids safety in them, and look to them if you are EVER in any sort of accident.  Drivers in Jakarta have to have more patience then any human alive.  I'm not sure how they do it.  At least when I am stuck in traffic I can drown myself in my iPhone, Pinterest, FB, my kindle, iPad....WHATEVER.  But to sit and fight the millions of motorbikes and cars following no rules?  No thanks.  He gets us from point A to point B....not always on time and not always with ease, but hey, we get there, right?  After the mess of drivers we dealt with the first 6 months in Jak, I'm thankful (most days) that we have him.  I've been known to secretly want to strangle him more than once ....His favorite saying is "I don't know Mrs."...and I consider him one of the best dressed Indonesians around.

365

A Photoblog by MoeCakes Photography that shares a single photo on a daily basis. Lasting a total of 365 days, it will not only create a daily (and collective) glimpse into my personal life, but challenge me as a photographer to utilize and develop my skills in new and unique ways.

About Me

My photo
Grad Student. Wife. Mom. An artist, yogi, photographer, graphic designer, former teacher and expat...photography has been part of my life since I can remember. I love the sound of a shutter clicking, travel, lotus flowers, inversions, backyards, an ice cold G&T, a great pair of shoes, and an inspiring read....just to name a few. I truly believe Ewan MacGregor could be my best friend and I was a dancer in my past life....or at least should have been. (And no, I can't dance.) LIFE IS GOOD.
