One last adventure away from this crazy city

Although Jakarta has been an amazing place to be regarding connections and research, it is not the most palatable city- to say the least.  Consequently, I have discovered this wonderful homestay program located in Cianjur (a small town about 2 hours away from Jakarta) that I will be going to tomorrow.  Kind of a last minute decision, but I just needed a break from the overcrowded and dirty streets here.  I plan to stay a few days- seeing a tea plantation, floating village, just living a few days in the life of rural Indonesia.. and of course, interviewing women on the jilbab.  This is mostly and FYI in case I don't have internet there.  

Also, I completely failed to mention one of the most exciting things about Indonesia!  Apparently my name is very common here (although they pronounce it Leeza), which means that I frequently see my name in giant letters indicating "Liza's Clothing Store" or something of the like.  It also means that people, for once, don't have trouble figuring out my name.  Who would have thought my name would be more common here than in my own country.
