This is a top pick! ... the seat. Nice one brother! The Island is volcanic so you can imagine the drive. Not a straight road in sight. We got into Bajawa around 5pm and were immediately greeted by a guide. He took us to a hostel and then invited us to his young nephew's first ...
Party Island
This is a top pick! We left for the port before 6am and had to wait a while for the ferry. In this time we spoke to a man about doing a 4 day 4 night tour to Komodo Island on a boat. We'd been looking into it and the only other company doing it charged a fortune. We booked ...
Housewarming, Flores-Style

Pretty little village

Kelimutu Lakes,Moni
Had a wonder around Moni,it was literally one road winding through the mountain side with about 100 locals making up the town and 4 places to stay in corragated shacks on the side of the road,really deserted and quiet surrounded by rice fields.The owner ...

A lost day in Bajawa

Flores
Of course there was no ferry to Timor from here. Why I wasn't surprised? At the morning completely different person in ticket office said that It's not from here, it's from another island. I asked where is the one, which is being loaded now going to? He ...
Wiedermal eine Busreise
... Stueck. Noch beeindruckender ist, dass es wohl kaum einen geraden Strassenabschnitt ueber 50m Laenge gibt zwischen Labuan Bajo und Bajawa. Extrem kurvig das Ganze. Nach 9 Stunden Busfahrt war ich auf jedenfall recht chnuettu. Flores ist wunderschoen und ...
Stomach Turning Road Trippin'

It's getting cold
... how Bajawa will be like. During the ride we saw bamboo forests, mountains, coastlines, rice fields, jungle, villages, schools, waving children .... Bajawa welcomed us with something we had not expected. It was damn cold here! At least for us, as we got ...
Bajawa, Flores

Getting a blood test in Bajawa
... energy for for the rest of the day. The excitement of the first evening and morning thereafter was given to Gary: On arrival at Bajawa i felt extremely exhausted. All my muscles were aching and i had a headache so i decided to get some rest. When i laid ...
Dans les terres et sous la pluie

Dragons and Flying Fish...
Breaking the tiresome journey across to Labuanbajo on the Flores west coast, we stopped in the bustling little town of Bajawa. Stretching our legs, we wandered the streets where (apart from the Pom finding a KFC!) the markets were the most entertaining ...
The Indonesian Wedding
Despreguem-se as bandeiras: hoje é dia de galhofa...e de festa! É dia de vestir a minha melhor roupa (umas calças da Decatlhon com um polo de mangas compridas de uma feira de ciganos na china e uma sweat-shirt Pull-and-beariana, com uns tenis ...
The 19km-hello-mister-middle-fingered walk
... saír de um colete de repórter-explorador da National Geographic, como aquele que o Tiburcio tinha no 10º ano. O caminho de volta a Bajawa é feito de suor (várias garrafas de litro e meio), lágrimas (motivadas por um ou outro mosquito fora de mão ...
On a Swiss Roll

... , like us, has been traveling for about 7 months and is mentally getting ready to return. He picked up a good bit of Bahasa Indonesia in his time here, so we make a good team. He is really open-minded and interested in locals, constantly chit-chatting his ...
Fuck Baja, This Is Bajawa
... , I paid $1USD for a bowl of Top Ramen noodles, thus marking the first time I have paid more for anything in Indonesia than I would have in the states. Unfortunately, while in Bna, Indo hoodlums stole the mirrors on Amar and Ronan's motorbike, which sent ...
Long Hard Road Out Of Hell, Part I
One of the things Lonely-Planet--damn-their-souls-to-hell doesn't tell you about travel in Indonesia is that no transport service allows you the time to eat a decent breakfast, in hopes that you will instead eat at the cafeteria of their choice. ...
Long Hard Road Out Of Hell, Part II
