Friday Photo

Rice Paddy at Danau Ranau, Sumatra, Indonesia

Indonesia is, without question, the most beautiful country I have visited. The lush beauty of the islands is incredible, standing in stark contrast to the extreme poverty in which most people dwell, particularly those outside of the cities. The people we met were friendly, especially the children who tagged along after us learning to count in English or showing us special places in their schools and villages.

Nusantara Inda!

Beautiful is not the only superlative to describe it but it was definitely beautiful.

The coffee was excellent.

Terima Kasih
