Emmeline Hambali with her daughter, strolling a beach on Java.

 Those who enjoyed the “Moms Around the World” series I ran in this column through early summer may be interested to know that the first in a new series of interviews is online in the Travels with Baby blog. The interview features a mom living in Jakarta, Indonesia, on the island of Java, with her husband and two young children. Here is an excerpt from the interview:

Emmeline Hambali lives in the city of Jakarta, Indonesia, the largest city in all of Southeast Asia with more than 8.5 million people calling it home. In Jakarta, she works as a Supply Chain General Manager for PT Dynaplast Tbk , a plastic packaging manufacturing company. On the side, she runs her own stationery design company called JB-Design. Emmeline is also the mother of two small children, a 3-year-old daughter named Katie, and a 9-month-old son named Jonathan. She was kind enough to answer my questions about life as a mother in Indonesia and share her tips for any parents who may be planning travel to Indonesia with babies, toddlers, and young children.
