Indonesia

So here i go meet 300 spirituals, yogis , musicians brothers and sisters.We lived on the beach for one month  in a community space all built from our hands where we would be exchanging  ; learning ; sharing dinners on a non money basis(a part from food sharing) on that beautiful landscape that the locals ( with agreement of the mayor ) shared with us.A land covered by bananas plantations nexr to an incredible but dangerous beach in the middle of the jungle.Among the time we spent together creating sustainibility , love and beauty ; we also had cultural exchanges with the local people. As well We helped, by purchasing food, to increase the economy of the towns.

After that amazing month spent on East Java island ( Tulungagung). 40 of us decided to go for a visit to Bali in the town of Ubud and to the Gili islands !What a paradise ! Ubud is wonderful ! It's beautiful; colorful; surprising and cheap!To resume i will say : culture ; hindu religion ; monkeys ; birds ; jungle ; sacred water ; temples ; bamboo forests ; amazing landscape ; amazing food ( fruits and tempeh !!)  ; cool shops and cafés ; vegetarian restaurants ; live music ; good vibes ! I spent a month enjoying living in Ubud then i learnt how to drive a scooter and i drove to the north of Bali to Amed where i did snorkelling  and back to Ubud after i visited  this amazing canyon on the way !Then 15 of us headed to Gili Air island ! There is 3 islands : Gili trawagan the big one. touristic parties ; alcohol and techno side .Gili Meno the small one romantic and quiet .Gili Air !  The Rasta island ! Where we spent a couple of weeks ! I loved it with its reggae bars and bamboo huts on the beach ; beautiful little island with no vehicles only "touristic"horses .

I took a vacation from my holidays and i went to Lombok island for a short visit. I was not expecting i will end trekking the Mount Rinjani for 3 days eight hours walk every day . Imagine a long walk through countryside and mountains surrounded by a huge volcano on a lake ! We were literally over the clouds ! Best sunset and sunrise on that  beautiful valley. We even bathed in a hot spring with volcanic stones !The most physical and adventurous trek i have ever done ! And that was so worth it i didn't regret it !
