    All aboard: The case for staying grounded (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    A cacophonous roar of clattering wheels and overlapping voices was how my parents described the chaos of traveling by train in Indonesia. That was the image of rail travel in my head: vendors selling food and rambunctious children screeching like an advertisement for birth control. But when I stepped onto the Argo Bromo Anggrek at Gambir station, heading east to Surabaya, I was glad to see that their description was outdated. At least, that’s not the noise I heard while inside the luxurious Angg

    The quiet chapter: the society of silent book clubs (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    When I first saw the group of about 20 people sitting in a semicircle around a small stage, I let out a little laugh. If I didn't know any better, I would have mistaken the scene for a cult. But I did know better, since the logo of Baca Bareng (Reading Together), perhaps Jakarta’s most popular silent book club, was clearly on display. These days, reading doesn't have to be a solitary activity anymore. At least, not in Jakarta. Following a movement that started in San Francisco in 2012, our capit

    On a Thursday night in the mountains of Karpenisi, not one building seemed more aglow than the house my friend grew up in. Decorated with fairy lights, she had turned her backyard into a high-end wedding venue straight out of a magazine, filled with her family and friends wrapped in conversation or energetically moving to the beat on the dance floor. The most ethereal sight of all was my friend Zoe, dressed in white, with a smile that glowed and made the night sky even brighter. The thought of h

    When the game stops: The hidden cost of the fitness boom (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Jakarta has a new afterwork ritual. The padel and pickleball courts are booked out weeks in advance. Race registrations sell out faster than concert tickets. Hyrox competitions are drawing thousands. Somewhere in your contact list, someone is probably training for something.

Within a few years, she was training for longer distance
