So a friend just made it to Jakarta
He’s starting an internship and it’s his first time in the city. Him talking about it made me kind of homesick. But unfortunately I’m not in much of a position to give him many recommendations since I’m sure the city has changed dramatically in the 8 years since I lived there.
He remarked that there are no English bookstores. While I did mostly go book shopping in Singapore, I distinctly remember that there was a Kinokuniya in Pasaraya. I think. There was also another bookstore that had a good selection but I’ve forgotten entirely the name of it. They even do English teaching courses out of the same brand.
Still, any ideas?

Periplus bookstores have english books! periplus.com/store for locations in Jakarta! And that would make me homesick too!
