Brief Explanation

These last couple of posts may be confusing so I thought I would explain quickly. I've been trying to post a picture for my profile and it took a few tries to get it right (hence the "still trying" caption) I finally got it and deleted the first attempt which is why there is a space below. And I've already told you more than you care about.

Check out my photos here.

Week 8 -- More Photos To Be Seen

Week 8 -- Photos from Way Back #3


This the LATIN office, everyday I've worked here I've been in awe of this building. Visitors always mention the beautiful building and peaceful surroundings here, especially if they are coming from Jakarta or any other large city. My work area is located on the second floor.

Week 8 -- Photos from Way Back #2


This me with a bunch of kids in Saninten village in West Java. LATIN has a project in the village and we went to visit. These kids were crazy for cameras, it was tough to keep them from mobbing me whenever I raised the camera to my eye. I know it's out of focus, which is weird cause it was taken with a fully automatic camera, but I like it anyways.

Week 8 -- Photos from Way Back #1

This is one of the first photos I took. To the left is the Bogor Botanical Gardens and the right is a bustling shopping area. And towering over it all is a billboard for an Avril concert from a month ago. Why is the "r" in Avril so small?
