12/08/16 Happy birthday to me! I was a strange feeling being alone away from friends and family on this day, and it really felt like any other day. I didn't even mention it to anyone until later on in the day. I woke up at sunrise, surrounded by so many beautiful islands. We were going … Continue reading Indonesia – Lombok to Flores Wanua Boat day 3

Indonesia – Wanua boat trip day 2
11/08/16 Funny thing about everyone sleeping on the playmats is that you have to crawl over everyone to get down and to the toilet. It was also a bit rocky which made it even more challenging, especially in the middle of the night. What was amazing though was the view of the stars which were … Continue reading Indonesia – Wanua boat trip day 2
Indonesia – Lombok to Flores boat trip, Komodo Wanua adventures.
10/08/16 So I woke up really early and decided to go on the boat after all. I called up my tour guide and he told me I had to pay an extra 200,000rp to rebook for today. I didn't care by that point and didn't argue, I wanted to be on the boat! I was … Continue reading Indonesia – Lombok to Flores boat trip, Komodo Wanua adventures.
Indonesia – Rinjani 3d2n, DAY 3
09/08/16 Finally got to the last day of this hike! I didn't sleep well and my breathing wasn't any better but I was so happy to be finally heading down. Today was just a pure downhill jungle trek, which at first was nice and fun but quickly became tedious. We had 5 hours of it, … Continue reading Indonesia – Rinjani 3d2n, DAY 3
Indonesia – Rinjani 3d2n, DAY 2
08/08/16 So after having breakfast and a quick lie down I had to make the quick decision if I continue or turn back. My chest was still really bad, and I was slightly traumatised from the summit hike. Everyone in my group told me that I should continue but take it slow. So that's what … Continue reading Indonesia – Rinjani 3d2n, DAY 2
Indonesia – Rinjani 3d2n, DAY 2 Summit
08/08/16 Well I'm done for. We were supposed to wake up at 2am to start the hike up the summit, only for me to wake up at 12am without the ability to breathe. Yep. I get altitude sickness. I thought the tent had run out of oxygen and I panicked to open it up and … Continue reading Indonesia – Rinjani 3d2n, DAY 2 Summit
Indonesia, Rinjani 3d2n, DAY 1
07/08/16 It's here, and I don't feel much better. I was woken up by the bloody call to prayer at 5am and couldn't sleep well after that. I knew I had to be up at 6am to be ready and have breakfast by 7am where we'd be picked up. I wish I had woken up … Continue reading Indonesia, Rinjani 3d2n, DAY 1

Indonesia- Kuta Lombok, Mawun, Mawi and Tanjung aan
05/08/16 I had heard from many people and blogs that you must must only rent your scooter from the hostel as the rental companies have this tendancy to steal your bike for more money. I had prebooked my bike the day before, and there waiting for me was a brand spanking new bike and helmet, … Continue reading Indonesia- Kuta Lombok, Mawun, Mawi and Tanjung aan
Indonesia – Kuta Lombok, Surfing
04/08/16 OMG. So maybe allowing the surf instructor take me to the beach was the worst decision of my life. I thought I was going to die on the back of his motorbike, I was given no helmet and he drove so fast in order for me to hold onto him. I did not hold … Continue reading Indonesia – Kuta Lombok, Surfing
