Mount Kinabalu - Summit @ 4095m, Low's Peak

I have to apologize for the late update. Even though it appears we have all the time in the world, there is so much to do and not to do, resulting in a feeling of time shortage. At the moment we are Cambodia's capital Phnom Penh on our way to northeastern Cambodia. Since we both have been here last year, there is loads of time to work on the travel blog for Borneo: An island famous for it's primary jungles, longhouse communities and top quality nature reserves, but also notorious for their logging, deforestation and endless palm oil [View Full Entry]

Banda Islands - View from our little plane

August 12th was for us an exciting day, because our plane from Makassar - Sulawesi would take us to Ambon, capital of Maluku Province. This is what we have been looking forward to for a long time. Ever since we planned this trip, we have been talking, dreaming and reading about this archipelago in the far east of Indonesia, with it's tiny remote islands, clear blue waters and perfect beaches. Now we got to see whether all these expectations are justified. The answer is a definite Yes! Ambon When we arrived in Ambon, we got a pi [View Full Entry]

Thousands of bats flying over typical Torajan style houses

It has been a wile ago since I last updated this travel blog. Traveling the remote islands of Maluku - Indonesia makes it very difficult to stay in touch. A dead slow internet connection and mobile phone service are only available in capital of Kota Ambon, a place were we didn't stay very long and we only used as a hub to get to the different Islands of the region. A full update on this great experience has to wait for a wile. First things first: Because Tana Toraja was one of my highlights last year, I didn't mind at all [View Full Entry]

National Monument Monas: Jakarta

It has been 4 months ago that Anna and me had to say goodbye because of her internship in Jakarta. Though I was most excited for her being able to have such an experience and nowadays the means of communication are cheap and easy, spending longer time without each other would have been out of the question. You can imagine how thrilled I was on that tuesday July 14th, when I could pack my backpack and catch the plain to London, from where I'd have my flight the following day to Kuala Lumpur and connecting flight to Jakarta to finally meet [View Full Entry]

Cambodian Ride
Motobiking in Battambang... our first day together.

Welcome to my travelblog! During my travels in Asia 2007/2008 I met my girlfriend Anna from Finland in Cambodia in the city of Battambang. When I returned in Europe and after a year of traveling to and from Berlin and Finland, because she was studying and living there, we decided to take on another epic journey. This time we are going together! Meanwhile Anna got a 4 month internship for the Finnish embassy in Jakarta. This made the decision "when to go and where to start" a lot easier. Half July her work in JK ends and our travels together starts. [View Full Entry]
