It's 10am on a Tuesday. A tad early for a soundtrack of Indo
Pop. My Bahasa Indonesia is coming along just enough for me to make
out about two or three words from each song. But I don't really need
to speak the language to know that it's pining, teen angst emanating
from the speakers. “Maaf!” – “Sorry”, the young Indonesian
man sings with heart, though for what I can't quite tell.
One man's musings on simultaneously becoming a stay-at-home dad and relocating to a new country. May include examples of creative efforts in writing,music and photography, though more likely just irregular updates on life in Jogjakarta, and the challenges and triumphs of learning how to be the primary carer in a country where you can't speak the language. All images, unless otherwise stated, were photographed by me.
