Scenic Ride Across Lake Toba
#outdooradventure
The ferry ride across Lake Toba is a scenic and relaxing way to experience the beauty of Indonesia's largest volcanic lake. The journey offers stunning views of the crystal-clear water and surrounding lush hills, creating a peaceful and picturesque atmosphere. Ferries typically connect the mainland to Samosir Island, with regular departures. While the ride itself is smooth and comfortable, the real highlight is the panoramic view of the lake and its islands, especially during sunrise or sunset. Whether you're traveling between destinations or simply enjoying the natural beauty, the ferry ride is a must-do experience for anyone visiting Lake Toba.

The Beautiful Mount Gede Pangrango🌋🇮🇩
#outdooradventure
This time i visit one of the most famous mountains in Indonesia named Mt. Gede Pangrango. Mount Gede Pangrango National Park is centered between two volcanoes, Mount Gede and Mount Pangrango (2.958 m and 3.019 m respectively) in West Java, Indonesia.
Most people come here for hiking to the peaks. There are 3 official hiking trails which each one has its own wonders and difficulties. The most traversed hiking trail is the Cibodas trail. (The other trail is; Gunung Putri and Selabintana trail).
It takes around 7-10 hours to reach the peak, but you will enjoy breathtaking scenery along the way, such as a lake, waterfall, swamp, and some craters.

🇮🇩 Speed and Breeze: Your Travel Hack for a Quick, Scenic Ferry Ride to Sabang

MINANGKABAU HERITAGE, A VISIT TO BUKITTINGGI, PADANG, SUMATERA
#familytravel
Our family trip to Bukittinggi, Padang, Indonesia, was a wonderful journey into history and culture.
We visited Pagaruyung Palace, a beautiful replica of a traditional Minangkabau royal residence with great architecture of pointed roofs and stunning intricate carvings on the walls.
It was a truly awesome experience but the one thing lacking at the palace is that, the palace seems quite dark.
Traditional attires with intricate head accessories are available for rent and to make our visit even more special, we dressed in the attire and took photos in the grandeur setting.
Pic 2 : my mom with her grandchildren
We also stopped by the iconic Jam Gadang, a Dutch designed clock tower, a major landmark in Bukittinggi.
Locals gathered round the square to chill and unwind.
With not much else to do, we had a little horse ride exploring around the lively town.

Forget Bali! Lombok is a more chilled paradise
Lombok is a hidden gem compared to its neighbor Bali. I found it to be so much more relaxed, with fewer tourists and a laid-back vibe that made the trip feel like a true escape. The beaches are beautiful, especially the ones on the south coast. What really blew me away were the sunsets – they were absolutely stunning, casting vibrant colors over the ocean.
The locals are incredibly friendly, and the island still has a sense of authenticity that I loved. I also enjoyed exploring the waterfalls in the rainforest and hiking up Mount Rinjani, though that’s for the adventurous.
A great tip is to rent a scooter to get around – it gives you the freedom to explore the less touristy parts of the island. Just be prepared for a bumpy ride on some roads. Overall, Lombok’s slower pace, natural beauty, and peacefulness made it one of my favorite trips.

Komodo island - actual home of dragons
Visiting the Komodo Islands was so cool. The islands are beautiful—green hills, clear water, stunning views. But the real highlight was seeing the Komodo dragons. I mean, they're just big lizards, but it’s crazy to see them up close and to listen to the guide stories how dangerous they are.
The guides were super helpful and kept us safe. They were quite resourceful about all the tips and tricks and interesting information about the island.
It felt like being in another world. The dragons are cool, but honestly, the beauty of the islands is what really stuck with me.

Exploring the Vibrant Culture, Cuisine, and People of Indonesia
Indonesia is a mesmerizing blend of rich culture, breathtaking landscapes, and warm, welcoming people. Its cuisine is a delightful journey of flavors—nasi goreng, satay, and rendang are must-tries, each dish bursting with aromatic spices and traditional touches.
The landscapes are equally diverse, ranging from the serene beaches of Bali to the mystical temples of Borobudur and Prambanan. The lush greenery of rice terraces and volcanoes like Mount Bromo offer unforgettable sights.
But what truly sets Indonesia apart is its people. Friendly, hospitable, and always ready to share a smile, they make you feel at home. Their deep respect for traditions and willingness to share stories of their heritage add depth to every experience.
Visiting Indonesia is not just a trip; it’s an immersion into a vibrant and unforgettable world.

Crazy burial rites at Lake Toba
The burial practices around Lake Toba are a bit mind-blowing. The Batak people have unique rites and family tomb has a few levels.
When someone new in the family dies, their body is placed on the lowest level, while older family members are moved up to higher levels.
On the top level, only bones are kept, piled together. And what's interesting - they are Christians.
It’s a cultural experience that’s both eerie and beautiful, making you think about life, death, and family in a new way.
One more interesting thing to note is that such tombs a randomly scattered around the entire Samosir island, rather than be accumulated at one place like a cemetery.

From Bali to Sydney: A Journey of Comfort and Iconic Sights
Flying from the tropical paradise of Bali, my adventure continued through the sleek Changi Airport in Singapore, with Virgin Australia as my carrier to Sydney. The flight itself was a breeze—comfortable seating, attentive service, and a seamless journey that set the tone for the excitement to come.
Landing in Sydney, the city's skyline immediately captures your imagination. Nothing quite compares to seeing the Sydney Opera House in person, its gleaming white sails contrasting beautifully against the deep blue of the harbor. Just steps away, the towering Sydney Harbour Bridge stands as a proud reminder of the city’s architectural prowess. The combination of these iconic landmarks, the shimmering waters, and the lively atmosphere makes Sydney’s Circular Quay a photographer’s dream and a traveler’s delight. #travel #sydney #sydneyoperahouse #australia #bali #indonesia #virginaustralia #travel

Sacred Serenity: A Scenic Journey to Manado’s Iconic Jesus Monument
Last September, I had the chance to visit Monumen Yesus Memberkati in Manado, traveling there by rented car. The monument itself is impressive, with the statue of Jesus standing tall, symbolizing peace and blessing over the city. The surrounding area is very serene, giving a sense of tranquility.
What made the trip even more memorable was the view. From the monument, you can see a beautiful church nearby, adding a spiritual touch to the landscape. Beyond that, the majestic mountains create a breathtaking backdrop, especially on a clear day when you can see the peaks stretching into the sky. It’s a fantastic spot for photography and to just take in the natural beauty around.
The drive up to the monument was smooth, and having a car made it easier to explore at my own pace. I highly recommend this experience for anyone visiting Manado who appreciates both spiritual sites and nature. It’s a peaceful retreat with an inspiring view of both the mountains and the city below.

Craziest architecture at stunning lake Toba
The traditional Batak houses around the area are fascinating too—these old wooden homes have crazy pointy roofs that look unlike anything Ive seen. They definitely became a highlight of the trip. They felt like from an old fairytale. Locals live in those houses, and once they even got invited by a nice lady to step in. Just to be respectful, I didn't take any pictures inside, but I can tell that was very simple and humble.
Lake Toba itself is stunning! It’s the largest volcanic lake in the world, and the views are absolutely breathtaking. The air is fresh, and the peaceful vibe makes it a perfect escape for nature lovers.
A fun fact: the lake is actually inside a supervolcano crater, which gives it a unique, calming beauty. Water was very warm, and I liked to swim in the lake.

Lakes that change colors!
The Kelimutu Lakes in Flores island, are absolutely stunning. The three volcanic lakes change color, shifting from blue to green to red and even to black depending on the minerals and weather.
You can easily get there by scooter, which makes the trip pretty convenient.
The locals believe the lakes are where the souls of the dead go—each one represents a different stage of life. So it is a sacred place and please be respectful.
The best time to visit is usually at sunrise, but be prepared that it may be very cold early in the morning. It’s a surreal and peaceful place, definitely worth the visit.

Absolutely stunning ancient temple
Prambanan Temple is honestly amazing. The big, tall temples are so impressive, and the carvings on them are beautiful. You can really feel the history when you're there. It’s definitely worth seeing in person.
Fun fact: the carvings tell stories from the Ramayana, which is an ancient Indian epic about love, war, and adventure. So pay closer attention to them if you're anyhow into history or literature.
Tip: go early to beat the crowds and heat.
One more tip: wear comfy shoes, because you’ll be walking a bit.

Drink
- Kombucha – Beetroot Apple Basil – 4.2/5
A refreshing choice, this kombucha flavor was a unique blend of beetroot, apple, and basil.

Amazing Snorkeling Adventure at Nusa Dua Beach 🏖️
#watersports #100waysoftravel #bali #indonesia #underwater #sea #beach #beachlife #awesomepic
Snorkeling at Nusa Dua Beach in Bali was an unforgettable experience. We chartered a boat and set out to explore the vibrant underwater world. As we donned our masks and fins, we were immediately captivated by the crystal-clear water.
The coral reefs were teeming with life, showcasing a kaleidoscope of colorful fish darting among the corals. We swam alongside gentle sea turtles and marveled at the intricate patterns of the sea anemones. The sunlight filtered through the surface, creating a magical play of light beneath the waves.
Every moment felt like a glimpse into another world, filled with tranquility and wonder. It was a perfect blend of adventure and natural beauty, making our time at Nusa Dua Beach truly special.

Dream holiday on Gili T, Indonesia
Had the most amazing time living the island life here. Got to snorkel off the beach where we saw big turtles, watched an outdoor movie on the beach with cocktails, had the best food with great value for money and did a boat tour where we saw baby turts, amazing corals, island hopped and underwater statues! Travel tip: make sure you get your hotel on the side where you get off the ferry as it’s an island where you cycle to get around, which makes it magical. Obviously had to extend a couple times #indonesia #gilitrawangan #southeastasia #backpacking
