Can anyone recommend some good books about living in or visiting Indonesia? |
Travel Info I'm moving to Jakarta for a year, and I haven't been able to find many good books on the country. Of the major travel guide series, only Lonely Planet seems to be up-to-date. I've ordered that as well as Jakarta Inside Out and Jakarta at your Door. I'm really looking for books about living in the country, but some good tourist guides would be helpful as well. Thanks! Travel Tips Okay, I found a few: - Insight Guide Indonesia by Francis Dorai. (This book has great photographs, but readers still prefer the Lonely Planet Indonesia). - Footprint Indonesia Handbook: The Travel Guide by Joshua Eliot, Jane Bickersteth, Liz Capaldi, John Aglionby. (The Business Times Singapore calls this book the most complete guide for travellers to Indonesia). - Bahasa Indonesia: Book 1 : Introduction to Indonesian Language and Culture by Yohanni Johns, Robyn Stokes. (To get you started learning the language). - Michelin NEOS Guide Indonesia by Michelin Travel Publications, Michelin Travel Publications. (Perfect for today's generation of travelers looking for "real" and emotional journeys, the NEOS collection features lively descriptions and rich anecdotes as well as maps, itineraries and information on hotels and restaurants.) Hope the above list helps, I found these books from Amazon.com, so you can read up the reviews of each book as well there. Welcome to Indonesia. Source(s): amazon.com Other Travel Tips There is a really good web site for expats that provdies lots of useful info about living and working in Indonesia. http://www.expat.or.id/ read my blog on my trip to jakarta htttp://andrewtojakarta.blogsp... If u are already in Indonesia, I suggest u to go to Gramedia and ask the people there to recommend u. // you can try googling them down. it might work. good luck |
