Bromo volcano north eastern Java, cycling in here was like returning to the deserts of Jordan. However the consciousness of the local vendors was more similar to that of the Orangutans found in the Jungles of Kalimantan. I was so disappointed that I chose to pedal off alone on a small path, rather than climb to the observation peak.

Waking up to a packed sunrise. I was standing in my tent when this picture was taken and was literally surrounded by 3 am. An old Chinese man had the nerve to wake me up, and tell me that my tent was taking up too much of his precious standing space.

Sunset Lovina beach, Bali. Another great camping spot on the beach in front of a  5 star hotel.

My local hosts, East Java.

Fermented Cassava, sold in banana leafs in a Indonesia store near you. You can find all sorts of lunch and snack products folded up and sold in these biodegradable bags from rice with chicken to noodles with beef. My favorite is the fermented rice, called Tapeh.

Root vegetables grown near Bromo mtn. En route to the Pasar

Hours after sunrise, Bromo Volcano. The morning after a steep 9,000 ft climb!
