Wonderful Wogo

 7th January 2010

It was a long journey in the car from Moni to Kampung Wogo - a large traditional village - one of the largest and most traditional in the area, although disappointing that electricity is now available in the village.

Kelimutu

 5th January 2010

'Kelimutu' - the most famous tourist spot in Flores (some say the most spectacular sight in the whole of Nusa Teggara Timor) - the coloured lakes that are formed within the craters of a massive volcano. The three lakes are different colours and they change colours at different times of the year.

Moni - Monday Market

4th January 2010

Moni is a very small village perched on the edge of the mountain and sits either side of the Highway...which can be a little crazy when bemos are passing by! But it is quiet and pretty. I feel like I am in the middle of nowhere...this mountainous region is so remote from anywhere!

Fabulous Flores - Maumere to Moni

3rd January 2010

Once leaving Pulau Rote and returning to Kupang, I decided to buy a ticket to Flores.
So, tomorrow - yet again - new island and another new adventure! Finally going to Flores!

Rugged Rote

28 December 2009

After surviving the flooded roads of West Timor, I headed to Pulau Rote - I had wanted to go there for a very long time and finally I was going to get there!! I was dreaming of beautiful remote beaches that I was soon to discover...

Time for Timor

Boxing Day 2009

I have contempated a lot about this journey - a solo trek to the unknown...the unexplored! It's exciting...it's scary! But it's time to explore new places and meet new faces!

A new adventure - NUSA TENGGARA TIMOR

I am going to back track a little to Boxing Day 2009 - time for my annual holiday and of course I had a ticket to Indonesia! My plan was to travel to the eastern islands - NUSA TENGGARA TIMOR, which I hadn't ventured past Lombok before so I was very excited.
