Our New Home #13 Bintaro


So we will be housed in Bintaro, a school owned subdivision. Funny that after avoiding the suburbs for most of our lives we end up in a suburban community in Indonesia. It seems we will be about a 1/2 hour drive from school when traffic is moderate. It can get much longer we hear, but we are told that the new toll road has significantly reduced the commute time in general. We will likely be spending a few years in Bintaro and plan to settle in, though it will be possible at some point to move closer to school when we increase our seniority. We hear the area is nice for jogging/walking and not far down the road is a Carrefour, the French answer to Wal Mart - definitely Indonesia's answer to suburban America!
