Ap Lab 1 Diffusion And Osmosis Set Up

Thousand Islands, or a few of the 18,000



Selamat malam!

Today I take you as promised, on a trip to the " Ribu Pulau " or "Thousand Islands referred. On Saturday morning at 5 clock went off: two German and 18 Indonesians. We have been prudent warned before, it would be a backpacker trip ...
with a cutter, which we had rented for 2 days, was the going adventure. Three hours by boat from Jakarta drive away, right in the Java sea, we landed on an island, an estimated 100 meters wide and 2 km in length. Of tourism does not track. First we went on foot through jungle thickets and palm collections. In between walnut gabs a fresh coconut from the palm open in style and with a machete:) That was the oppressive heat also urgently needed. The strenuous march but was compensated by a magnificent beach . All together we fell into the water armed with a snorkel, mask and fins. The next 2 hours I then met for the first time the underwater world of Indonesia: loads of fish, rays, starfish, corals of all shapes and colors ... Now you can all together once a round to be jealous of me! :) On Sunday we will have
moved from island to island and snorkeling spot to snorkel spot. In this small island schnuggeligen dream you just go sometimes even the T clear .... how stupid that we had to leave again to Jakarta. Here I would have liked a few more days left.

Finally, I told you yet attached a small video and some photos from my home in Jakarta.

it well and are looking forward to next week. At the weekend, fly to Mount Bromo . There should be able to experience one of the most amazing sunrises, this planet has to offer .....

The quake and the jungle

I'm back!

I hope that I write the following sentence must be the last time:

I have the latest earthquake safe and well survived. Last Friday, 16 clock time, I was standing in the office of my boss. Suddenly I become bissal is a dizzy. Since my boss had smoked in his room and I have not eaten much for lunch, I thought that it is my cycle and got me on a chair until my head ...... Having bitten by a tarantula jumped up and has caused earthquakes . I have to say it feels right funny if you at the 9th Floor of a building sits and the thing starts to wobble ..... The Indonesians have the building evacuated without panic, but it has met at the collection point on the road. A ll information on official the quake reached 3.3 on the Richter scale, and no one was injured. Ensure that the epicenter was entfert but only 200 km from Jakarta, we had a great guardian angel ....

But now to the finer things in life. After 3 weeks I've finally done it this stinking mega-city to turn its back and ride in the countryside. The driver of the Danish Embassy has given us (2 Danes, 1 Swede, 4 German) to drove 3 hours from Puncak. As we went through the day running around in the jungle of the nation's parks and bathed in the waterfall. On Sunday we will have strolled through the endless tea plantations of the region and enjoyed the sun (in Jakarta, it is hot, but through the smog you get from the sun very much to).

Next weekend, we go to Thousand Islands. Interesting name? Let's surprise ...

next week

Show On Line Floor Plans For Granny Flats

HSS Jakarta and what I work so

Selamat Malam!

You see, my knowledge of Indonesian rapidly becoming more acute! :) Today I had my first official lesson. So do focus on what, if I'm back ....;)

As I have also promised last week, I talk this time about my work and I love the whole day so exaggerating:
I am completing my internship in the outer office of the Hanns Seidel Foundation (HSS) in Jakarta. The team consists of a German director and louder Indonesian employees (1 program coordinators, a financial Erin, 2 secretaries, 1 Office Boy and 2 drivers).
focus of HSS are "Environmental Education for Sustainable Development", "Democratization" and "Rule of Law" (= certainty). plan and coordinate within these topics, and we carry a variety of workshops, participate in conferences and Represent the course may be forgotten in a foundation before. Tomorrow I take, for example, in a seminar of the German-Indonesian Handeskammmer on "Renewable Energy Biogas" part. Determined really exciting and the drivers is of course also been ordered so that he can I pull up properly! :)

Perhaps you may have noticed even the elections in July 2009 in Indonesia. For the new Members of Parliament we hold crash courses on various topics (eg "What is a Democrat?" NO JOKE!)
Since democracy in Indonesia has only been about 10 Years is they are very Fragile and lately also urge strengthened Islamist parties in the foreground. In a province recently even reintroduced Sharia and thus the stoning for adultery and flogging for adultery. But so far I have yet to meet the Indonesians that is good. Generally, we will be here a very tolerant dealing with religion. Religion is interpreted mainly as a private matter. Since then there should not be surprising if a woman in a miniskirt and a woman with a headscarf in a bar drinking beer encounters! :)
If you want to read more about our work you find in the HSS Indonesia www.hsfindo.org

Otherwise I live here, more and more. At the weekend I had beeen at indie festival in which various local bands have gebattelt. Times quite funny to see how young Indonesian abgehn to Indie! :) Another favorite sport is the Indonesian food. I must confess that I have in this good 2 weeks here have never once cooked and increased at least 3 pounds. One serving of Nasi (= rice) and mie goreng (= noodle) goreng can be found here for the equivalent of 80 euro cents. Cook would be at least as expensive. And once popular in the week, heading into Swiss restaurant in which one of bratwurst on Kassler, Cordon Bleu and potato salad all get what your heart! :)

In this sense: Selemat Macan! (= Good Appetite) and by next week

earthquake in Sumatra and the first week


way you love, I'm back! The first week in Jakarta is over and there is a lot to tell.

Perhaps the most important times to the beginning: Jakarta is left by the earthquake in Sumatra largely spared ...... to happiness. We have in our office in the high-rise just a little wobble not notice!

A few facts about Indonesia Entry:
- Indonesia is the country's fourth largest population in the world, 232 million people.
- Indonesia consists of 18,000 islands (Jakarta on the island of Java with 130 million Meschlein) and extends over a length of over 5000 km.
- 88% of Indonesian Muslims
- Jakarta has 20 million inhabitants and is characterized mainly by a consistently high level of smog pollution, miles of continuous traffic jams and lack of green out;)

should the you you a little idea of the dimensions here . give Everything a couple of sizes bigger ..... up to the size of the Indonesians. The fact I go max. up to chest height! :)

now I am also drawn from the hotel in my own little room (see picture). The first step me settle here. With the Indonesian language, I do myself but still very heavy. Understand only train station here all day. Therefore I must first gaze where I can as quickly as possible NEN crash course. The people may in fact English, but rather less than good.

What else do so everything's going and how's the internship at the Hanns-Seidel Foundation, I tell you next week.

Until then
Peter
