Day OneHundred-FiftyOne


It's down to the wire, folks.  Movers arrive on Monday and we will be on our way to Texas 5 days after that.  This means several things....I don't have as many "empty" moments as I do "full".  Loading a picture every day, well, it just won't happen.  Our internet will soon be shut off.  So, I will continue to take what I can and load what I can, but there may be gaps from time to time!  

I've decided the last couple weeks in Jakarta I'm going to follow a theme of "Will and Won't" - meaning, things I will miss about life in Jakarta, as well as things I won't miss about living in Jakarta.  Think of it as the Pros and Cons of Expat life!

Today's pic is by far the number one thing I will miss.  The expat community.  It's a built in network, family, support, release....all in one.  Everyone is in the same boat, and no one quite understands except this group.  There is nothing like a great dinner with some of the best people in the city.  Chinese food ordered by a Chinese firecracker?  GUARANTEED to be one of the best. meals. ever.  And tonight didn't disappoint.

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.
