It is over

We are waiting in the lounge of sheremetyevo for our last flight ftomm Moscow to Amsterdam. Again we are chill, mainly because I am still in shorts at Russian wintertemperatures. Our last days in Laos were great, 4000 islands are a great place to ...

It took a few weeks before we had some time to write this next episode. We were too busy with doing nothing....or better said we did a lot but in a quiet pace and we took our extensive relax moments after our activities. So what happened; When we ...

Sumatra; He Eddy, that ape is stealing our lunch.

From civilised Singapore we went back to Sumatra, Medan, to spend our last 6 days in Indonesia. We arrived in Medan, which is not a very exciting city, but as Sumatra is famous for coffee and cigars, this was our goal. We found the coffee, not the ...

And suddenly...there was Singapore

As our 60 days visa for Indonesia was about to expire, we had to leave the country for a few days and Singapore was the logical choice. Not that we were not ready for some luxury. Java was already a step up to civilisation, but compared to ...

Java, first step to civilisation

After Sulawesi, Java was a relief. Suddenly we got a choice of food after the endless fish and rice breakfasts, lunches and dinners at Togean. The fast food, who would have thought we would crave for a burger, and more importantly, the "coffee bean ...

Sulawesi, from Tana Toraja to Togean Islands

After crossing Tana Toraja by bike for 2 days seeing multiple burial sites we were ready for the next leg of our journey. The busride to Tentena has a reputation; 16 hours through windy roads, so we decided to become big spenders and rent a car. ...

Sulawesi, island with many faces

We arrived at Makassar, Sulawesis largest city and stayed in a what we thought was a very quiet guesthouse. That was till from at least 6 mosques Allah was praised at the same time louder and louder as in a serious competition. Apparently this was ...

Maluku

6 AM and sitting in the business lounge of Pattimura airport (yes, we travel in style). Business lounge means loneliness here, no other guests, free bad coffee in stead of paid bad coffee. The silence is broken by the never ending christmas songs ...

From Paradise to Maluku

Raja Ampat..as close as we have been to Paradise. A thousand islands, the most beautiful underwater life you can imagine. We left Sorong with the fast ferry and were picked up by Freddy, owner of the homestay at Pulau Mansuar (Kri). As we approached ...

Komodo and Rinca

After our visit to Kelimutu, we went to Bajawa and visited a traditional village. Now in Indonesia every area has its traditional village as these are selfmade tourist attractions. The most traditional thing is they are mostly boring. However THIS ...

After a long long journey we finally arrived at Maumere somewhere at the eastern part of the island of Flores. Our plan is to travel overland to Labuhanbajo, which is in the west. We will follow the Trans Flores Highway built by the Dutch and ...

Ready to go

only 1 day left till the start of our long holiday. Winter is coming...but not for us. Our backpacks are overloaded and far too heavy, time will tell what we can miss...or just loose. Everything is ready, so our next story will be probably from ...

Amsterdam - Nederland

Indonesia & Laos

Our 3 months trip will bring us to the more remote places in Indonesia.
Starting at the beautiful island of Flores we will cross the island and than embark for a 3-days boat tour around Komodo and Rinca to finally see the dragons.
From there we will fly to Irian Jaya (Papua) where we shall visit the Dani people in the Baliem Valley. Than it is time for us to relax at Raja Ampat, where you can find some of the most beautiful diving areas on this planet.
We will proceed to the Banda Islands, where the nutmeg grows that provided the unlimited wealth for Hollands Golden Age. From the Moluccans we fly to Makassar at Sulawesi and we will cross the island from South to North.
Next is Java, the sunrise at Bromo, magnificent Prambanan and Borobodur, one of the wonders of the world.
Than it is time for luxury in Singapore, but only a few days as the Orangutans in Sumatra are waiting for us.
From Medan we will go up North to Chiangrai, only to cross the border with Laos and than slow boating the Mekong river to Luang Prabang. We might get some company in our slow travel to the South of Laos. After 3 weeks of Laos we will try to spend our last days at a little Thai island before returning to Amsterdam
