Dawei
1. joulukuuta 2015, Myanmar ⋅ ☀️ 33 °C
After a long bus ride we arrived in Dawei in the south of Myanmar. It has some more temples and big Buddhas, which, because of the heat, we didn't visit. But we walked a little around the lonely roads.Lue lisää

Bangkok
2. joulukuuta 2015, Thaimaa ⋅ ⛅ 34 °C
We had a great time in Bangkok. For the first few days we swam in a rooftop pool with a great view at our couchsurfer's place :)
On the 5th of December is the birthday of the king. So like everyone else, we got ourselves a yellow t-shirt and enjoyed free food, drink, fireworks and Ali even got a free haircut!Lue lisää

Prachuap Khiri Khan
7. joulukuuta 2015, Thaimaa ⋅ ☀️ 29 °C
After some hours hitch-hiking out of Bangkok towards the south of Thailand, we decided to stop in this calm city at the sea. We had some nice food at the night-market and saw the beach. The next morning we climbed a small hill, which was protected by very lively monkeys. But the view was worth it...Lue lisää

Trang
9. joulukuuta 2015, Thaimaa ⋅ ⛅ 26 °C
While hitch-hiking people seem to love taking selfies with us. But anyway we arrived quite quickly in Trang and had some relaxing days here. The only sight in the city is the clock tower. But it has a great night-market :) And we were lucky to watch the "Bike for Dad" event, which was held for the king's birthday.Lue lisää

Georgetown
13. joulukuuta 2015, Malesia ⋅ ⛅ 29 °C
We arrived here by ferry after many hours of hitch-hiking from Thailand. George-Town is famous for its food. But furthermore I enjoyed the many arty graffities everywhere. It was just fun to walk around and search for the next one. Plus, all the roads have some specially designed signs which explained where their names came from.Lue lisää

Kuala Lumpur
15. joulukuuta 2015, Malesia ⋅ ⛅ 30 °C
Shopping-Mall next to Shopping-Mall and inside each one you can find a lot of christmas decorations. Of course the Petronas Twin Towers are no exception. But it's warm enough outside to enjoy some refreshing waterfall next to the christmas tree.Lue lisää

After 28 hours on a ferry (which was quite comfortable with food and bed), we arrived in Jakarta and found our way to our couchsurfing host Chandra. With him, we went to a Dutch-Pancake-Night and could meet many of his friends. It was like a little christmas celebration :)
The next day we went around Jakarta for sightseeing and more amazing food!Lue lisää

Gereja Ayam (Chicken Church)

We went to an abanndoned building, which once was used as a catholic church. It should be a pigeon, but looks like a chicken, so that is how it got its name.

Ijen Volcano
11. tammikuuta 2016, Indonesia ⋅ ⛅ 27 °C
We arrived by motorbike 3km away from the crater of Ijen volcano at 1am. After getting a ticket and a gas mask for the protection against the sulphur, we started to climb up. After we reached the top and climbed down the crater for another 30 min, we could see some of the famous blue fire. The smoke and the wind were against us. But after we climbed back up and the sun came up, the view over the crater was fantastic anyway and worth a sleepless night :)Lue lisää

Uluru/Ayers Rock
24. tammikuuta 2016, Australia ⋅ ☀️ 32 °C
After two days of hitch-hiking we finally arrived in Yulara, the closest town to Ayers Rock.
On the way we met a lot of interesting people, who took us for some kilometres. This included some drunk Aboriginies, with whom we broke down in their car. Instead of having working spare tyres in the back, they had some kangaroo tails and a lot of other things, too ;)
There was also a big Indian family with 4 children, who are just travelling around Australia for a few months...Lue lisää
