Easy Friendship

Happy Ascension day! The only One great thing about living in Indonesia is there are 6 recognized religions and for each holy day, it's a day off. (This also explains why Indonesian workers are entitled to only 12 days of paid leave in a year.) On a whim, my girls and I made plans to have lunch at Gastromaquia Senopati.


I love this easy friendship: the kind of relationship that doesn't require you to meet every so often, but once you do, without any difficulty you'll reconnect and pick up where you left off. It's so great knowing everyone's doing great: Ester is enjoying her last few months in Jakarta before heading to Manchester this fall, Sherry is seeing this great guy after being single for a long time, Ayas just started a new job with a much better working environment than her previous employer, Anty finished her working contract exactly today, Theresa is doing her research for a master's program abroad, and Ade looks very comfortable where she's at.


We ended up not eating all that much; too busy to catch each other up and crack up over inside jokes. Definitely a foul-proof activity to spend the day-off!
