You look like a beautiful rare flower among the beautifully dark skinned Indonesians.

Hello Mariette, Those terraced mountain farms are so different from those in Ohio, and I am sure also the ones that you and Pieter were familiar with. That is the great advantage of traveling the world. I am super impressed with your linguistic abilities. How long did you study Bahasa Indonesia? I couldn't hear your voice well on the video, but your speech and gestures seemed fluid and natural.

Dearest Jim,
DeleteOh sure those terraces looked so different from what we were used to.
Well, I studied from with a lady that came to our guest bungalow but not for long as I did not gain much from her. Our job is so specific that I learned from the English speaking staff members and used that for my training down to the harvesting area.
Loving the people you interact with, helps a lot!
Hugs,
Mariette
WOW! You speak Indonesian so fluently, Mariette!
ReplyDeleteI am impressed! And you're beautiful!
Dearest Veronica,
DeleteGuess you're the only of my readers that can actually understand as Malay is very close to Bahasa Indonesia. It has helped me so much for getting around in Singapore as well.
Thanks for your compliments.
Hugs,
Mariette
You are really talented!
ReplyDeleteDearest Anne,
DeleteWell, both of us just were very passionate about teaching others to do a better job and for making a living!
Hugs,
Mariette
A wonderful view. I imagine Indonesia has wonderful places. And it's amazing that you speak Bahasa Indonesia.

Dearest Christina,
DeleteIndonesia is like paradise, we loved living and working there! AND eating...!!!
Well, since I had to train the harvesting crew and post harvesting, they had not had any formal education; so I had no choice but to speak their language!
Hugs,
Mariette
