I arrived in Indonesia with very little knowledge about what was ahead of me. But it turned out in the end to be one of my favourite travel spots, because of the diversities the land can offer. But one thing is certain! Wherever you go, you see lots of people poor on finances but rich in culture and happiness. Unfortunately I did not have the time to go all over Indonesia since it is actually a giant country. I did however make it to Gili Islands, Lombok, Bali, Java, Sumatra and Siberut Island. Siberut Island is a small island out from the west coast of Sumatra, and is very very much untouched by 'civilization'. I do believe the pictures below speak for themselves.
