Sumba

On our travels around Indonesia we were drawn to the island of Sumba with talk of its rich culture and nature. Rolling hillsides, wild horses, tumbling waterfalls, expansive, open landscapes & traditional villages.

Sulawesi: South to North

Indonesia is vast. It’s the world’s largest archipelagic state, stretching 5,000km from west to east. So we really shouldn’t have been surprised at how long it took us to get from Medan, Sumatra to Makassar, Sulawesi.

New Caledonia

We’d thought New Caledonia would be different to the other Pacific island nations we’d visited, but it turned out to be a very peculiar place.

The Solomon Islands: Part 1

We started the WWII history tour in the airport before the slow, busy journey to the homestay along the most ridiculously potholed roads. We had a whole apartment amidst a lush, jungle like garden & a jumble of wooden buildings.

Sydney & the Blue Mountains

We’re trying to travel on a fairly tight budget so it was probably a tad extravagant to decide we were going to Sydney purely for the opera. But it was so very worth it.
