I guess my interest in Indonesia started in 1993, when I was in Year 9. My school finally offered a language course, and even though I really wanted to learn French, I took up Indonesian. From there.. well, amazing things happened. In 1994, I became interested in AFS International Exchanges, and decided that as I'd been studying the language, I might as well go to Indonesia. 18 months later, I was on a plane to Denpasar, for the best year of my life. I arrived on the 11th of August 1995, and departed on the 27th of June 1996. Now, over two years since I've returned, Indonesia is still important to me, I still love the people I met there, and I still, more than anything in the world, want to return.
