Goodbye indonesia
April 25, 2023 in Indonesia ⋅ ☁️ 31 °C
My last couple of days in Indonesia have been great. I’ve really just enjoyed spending my time with Sophia, relaxing, after what has actually been quite an active little holiday together.
We had a fantastic Balinese massage for our last dinner in Gili Air, but the travel day, the next day to Seminyak was not so pleasant. Once again, we were mildly scammed by the Lombok café, when we realise there was no Transport waiting for us In bali so we had to pay 300k (£15) for a taxi anyway.
Our dinner at pork star was one of the best I’ve had, and then it was time for me to leave Sophia and return to Vietnam
My time in Indonesia has been special. It’s been so nice to spend some quality time in a country which is so diverse and culturally rich. I wasn’t initially planning on coming here, but I’m very glad I have, and honestly Indonesia is somewhere I can definitely see myself travelling in the future as it is so ridiculously big with massive diversity of activities, religion, culture and landscape between the various islands. Did you know it’s the fourth most populous country in the world and spans three time zones!? I had absolutely no idea how big it was.
Bali was definitely the tourist hotspot, but still pretty cheap fulfilling All of the range of need tourist could want from expensive Western-style attractions to remote beach getaways. Lombok was quieter (admittedly during Ramadan), but beautiful. It is less developed than Bali so the main things to do Here are taking advantage of the fantastic nature by surfing or hiking.
I hope to come back here one day and hopefully see more of what Indonesia has to offer as I know, there are some unique animals like manta rays, and Komodo dragons, and some of the best diving spots in the world like Raja Ampat.Read more
