18 year old European girl traveling solo to Java - Lombok, Indonesia?

So i have done bali many times, and lombok twice, but now I want to get to the heart and soul of this amazing country. I want to go to Java, but no one wants to go with me. I do not really care, I would go alone but I know how some of the local guys can be with white girls, it dosent bother me so much, But i want to know what to expect if I am going to Java? I plan to meet some people that I know in some places but for the most part i will probably be doing my traveling alone. Please do not tell me not to go, its not an option for me. I have to go! : Also, I can speak Indonesian, definetly not fluently but all the basics and a bit more

Responses:

Java is less tourism friendly compared to Bali. It's also less safer because in Bali, they have so many pedestrians. While in Java, there are pedestrians, but most of them are, you know, a bit lower cl people. Be careful as most of the crimes occurred outdoor. You must also be careful when talking as unlike in Bali, the majority in Java are Muslims, so be sure to dress well, no short pants or tank tops. Getting around Java is very difficult. Public transportation in Java is poor and not tourist - friendly. If you go to Jakarta and Surabaya, avoid going outdoor as usually in urban cities, most of the people prefer travelling with their personal vehicle. You can also contact me if you have more instant questions to ask
Oooooh
''Statistics by Indonesia NGO Migrant Care showed that as many as 600 girls and woman from Malaysia had eloped with their Indonesian lovers and ended up in Lombok. '' wow. lombok must be really something. :D
Java is generally safe to travel through provided you take the normal precautions such as not travelling at night alone. Personally, I would be very cautious over the next few months with the death of Bin Laden as some extremists may cause trouble for anyone who looks like an American. Check carefully with the people you know as they should have more up to date information about the region
Oh, really? That's good. : The people is very friendly. But, I think the most friendly people is Jogjakarta's citizen. Java is the most populous and the most developed island in the Indonesian archipelago. The island is politically divided into the provinces of West Java, East Java and Central Java. The capital city of Jakarta is also located on this island. Java is an epitome of rapidly changing society: beautiful countryside and filthy cities; tranquil rural scenes and streets congested with traffic. indonesiatravel.org. uk / tourist - attractions / java / But, I suggest you to visit this place : tourismindonesia.com / 2007 / 12 / baturraden - mountain - resort - jewel - in.html Finally, GOOD LUCK and ENJOY your journey in Java ! :
