My name is Caroline and I am currently working at the French American school of Portland. I have dual citizenship French/American and grew up in France.
I am starting a teaching job at the French school of Jakarta next year - Sept 10 and am very excited about the opportunity of living in Indonesia/south east asia.
I am a 23, active young woman. I am committed to sustainable development, and outdoor activities. I love being around children and can't wait to meet my new class.
I would love to have your opinion and views of Jakarta. Also if you have a link to a helpful blog (can be in French or English) that'd be great. I have so many questions that it is hard to think of a specific one. :)
