Ngojek to Kelimutu
I was on duty for couple of days while in Maumere when suddenly someone suggest me to go to Kelimutu on Sunday. It was not easy since Kelimutu is very far if we start from Maumere. I tried to rent a car but too expensive for my walet. So, finally I ...

Stuck in Waingapu and watching Indo tv

Tales from the togean beach queen
... apparently each gift is recorded by the family. I have come to the conclusion that "Charlotte's Web" was not a popular book in Indonesia. Toraja's traditional houses are very unique, the roof like a tower and then scooping up on either side, some say like ...

Naar Moni, Ende en Bajawa

Chasing crabs with a broom

Prima zi in Labuan Bajo
Zborul de la Denpasar la Labuan Bajo a durat circa 1 ora. Ne asteptam la un avion de 25 maxim 50 persoane, insa a fost unul de aproape 100 si aproape plin. Ne-a deranjat totusi faptul ca desi platisem bilet intreg, am fost nevoiti sa mai platim o taxa ...

Sumba is not easy
It's taken me two full days to get a feel for Sumba. I have to admit, right off the bat, I was absolutely terrified. First of all, the flight: the flight attendants were hot and useless. An hour and a half flight, and these girls did nothing. They were ...

Around Ujung Genteng
