there. Wa, there is a real life Barbie. Let’s go take a picture. Yeah. So, yeah. As you can see,
guys, this is the square. And you might think, “Wow, these buildings look so European and
so Dutch.” Well, that’s because of the Dutch colonization. So, in the early 1900s to 1945,
the Dutch colonized majority of Indonesia. Then the Japanese came in for about 3 to 5 years. Then
after that, Indonesia gained its independence. So, Indonesia has had a lot of history. Hinduism
and Buddhism was uh introduced about I believe like thousands of years ago. And then in the 13th
century, uh, Islam was introduced to the area. But that’s why Hinduism still exists in Bali because,
uh, Islam didn’t really go to Bali that much. So, super interesting. Hello. Hello. How are you?

busy, right? I love it. Yeah. Yeah. Like all the locals here are just chilling, having a
picnic. It’s not even a weekend. It’s like Imagine on Saturday, Sunday. Oh my gosh, it’d
be so busy. I’m glad that we came on a Monday. I thought that today would be quiet. No, all the
kids are out. It must be school holidays. I was thinking the same. I think that’s what it is.
It has to be school holidays. There’s so many little kids everywhere. So, you can see here all
the old uh European buildings. It’s just really, really nice. And they have all different street
art and things here. This is super, super cool. And yeah, as you can see, guys, they have heaps of
different street food here. Maybe we should find some ice cream, right? Yeah, I could really
go for some ice cream. It’s super hot. Okay, so now let’s cross the road here. They have all
of the different types of street food. Um, but we are looking for something cold. I’ve noticed a
lot of the street food here, guys, is fried. Like different types of fried food, right? M. Here’s

to get it going, we got it going. Jakarta, here we come to explore. Okay. And now we’re off.
I tell you what, guys. It is so hot in the tuk tuk here. I don’t know what they call these vehicles
in Indonesia. Let us know in the comments. Like, we know Rick Shaw, tuk tuk, tricycle. I’m not
sure. Let us know in the comments. Auto. So, yeah. This driver is crazy guys. Okay guys, so we are just arriving now from here.
Yeah. Okay. Have fun. Okay. Bye-bye. Bye. That was fun. Scary, but I wouldn’t want to do that again.
We just got married. Yeah. Yeah. Meaning Sophia doesn’t want us to get injured. So, here we have
124 years old church. Yeah. So, this was built by the Dutch in 1901, which is over 124 years old.
Okay. So, with the coming in of the new pope, uh I think the church will be quite busy today.
And you can see here, this is the old pope. God bless. Yeah. Let’s go inside. So, I don’t think
the public can go past these gates. I think there’s a church service going on and you have
to go through security and sign in. But yeah, we can definitely see it from the back here,
which is super, really, really beautiful. [Music] Okay, so we just came out of the church.
What did you think of that experience? It’s just beautiful and like we got to meditate there
and like my soul found rest. It’s really nice. Yeah. So, it’s really peaceful, right?
Yeah. And one thing that surprises me. So, this is the main church of the capital of the
country really. And right across is one of the main mosques which is crazy. So, it just shows
how Indonesia has religion in harmony, right? So, you have the church and directly across from that
you have the mosque. right here in Indonesia, they have such openness and I think that’s
really beautiful because why cause conflict over religion, you know? It’s uh Exactly. And love
is the greatest thing. Amen. Wow. And this mosque is actually huge. I didn’t even see this when we
arrived. So now we’re just waiting to cross the road. There’s so much traffic here. So guys, also
another fun fact uh about Indonesia is it’s the largest Muslim majority nation, Muslim majority
country in the world. Uh which is absolutely very surprising. Amazing. Yeah, I thought it was
Bangladesh. Yeah, with over 17,000 islands. Um, yeah, it’s the largest Muslim majority nation.
So, uh, here we have the beautiful mosque and it’s so big and this looks quite new to be honest.
It looks like it was actually built in the last 10 years. It’s really beautiful and clean. I think
we’ll just stay outside and marvel it from there because we’re not Muslim ourselves, so I’m not too
sure. But yeah, if you guys know if we can go in, let us know in the comments. But I’m not sure
because I haven’t seen any tourists go inside yet. So, another thing, guys, about uh Islamic
places of worship is they actually separate the men and women uh when they pray. So, on this side
is the men’s entrance and then on this side is the woman’s uh entrance. So, yeah, I don’t think
we’ll go inside today. I think it’ll be a bit tricky for us to film and also we don’t really
know what we’re doing and how to be respectful when walking into a mosque. We’re both Christians
and Sophia used to be Hindu, so she understands Buddhism and Hinduism temple as well. So, it’s
easy for us to go in. But yeah, with a mosque, we’re not really sure what to do. So, I don’t
think we’ll go in today, but I’ll just put up some photos now of what it looks like on the inside.
So far, Sophia, what’s your first impressions of the country? We’ve only It’s our first day, but
yeah, I think it’s like a mix between Thailand, Bangladesh, and Singapore. It’s like it’s like
every country I mean like um in one, right? It has like all these different vibes. For me, it’s
quite similar to the Philippines and Thailand. Hi. Hi. Hello. Just uh just speaking of that, how
friendly everyone is. So surprisingly friendly. Like I did not expect everyone to be so welcoming.
The Indonesian people are absolutely beautiful. Many countries have 7-Eleven. We have Indommart
here. Yeah. So let’s go and see Indomite for the first time. Hi Meow. Indomite cat. Wow. pregnant
Indommart cat. Okay, so they have all the chips. They have different ice cream. Oh my gosh. I
tell you what, if you want to cool down, come to Indomat because it’s super easy to cool down.
Guys, I think we’re going to get some bananas. Hello. Uh these bananas, please. So 17,000. So
that’s like $1 for all for four bananas, which is a pretty good price. Now we have heaps of change,
which is good, guys. Just next to Indomart, they have I thought was another Indomart, but
it’s a copy. It’s called Alpha Mart. And you see they have the exact same colors. Red, blue, and
yellow. Red, blue, yellow. So yeah, let us know in the comments what’s better, Indomart or Alpha
Mart. Guys, we just came inside this place here and they have all local shirts for men and women.
You can see how colorful they are. Sophia might be getting hit out by a local. Wow, that’s beautiful.
Show us one. Wow, that’s quite nice. This is made in Indonesia. Okay, Indonesia. Yeah. No Chinese.
Uh, no. No. Okay. Yellow. That’s cute. They don’t have a changing room, so you got to try it from
over the top. That’s really pretty, right? Yeah, I think I’ll get this one. Yeah, that’s beautiful.
Okay. Wow, this one looks good as well. I love it. That’s a beautiful one. We might get both.
And we’re going to try this long one, too. So, for the long one, Sophia, they don’t have they
don’t have the size. So, guys, they also have some really nice male shirts here, too. I think this
one might be pretty good for me, but I do have lots of shirts in my bag. I should have packed a
lot less. That one looks good, too. Yeah, I like that. I My favorite is the purple. Wow, that’s
that’s pretty good. Who’s that handsome? Yeah, this is the couple one. Wow. So, that’s yours.
And then this would be what mine looks like. So, you can see, guys, it’s like twins. Look at this,
guys. Look how big this note is. Wow. Bigger than my finger. Yeah. 700,000. Okay. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Okay, thank you. Okay, okay, byebye. Bye. Okay, now we’re finally going to look like locals with
our local dress. So, make sure you guys subscribe, like the video, turn on notifications so for the
next video, you can see us in our local dress. Wow. Hello. What one do you like? This one.
Pink one. Yeah. Yeah, that’s beautiful. Wow, that’s lovely. Very, very good. Oh, it needs
to be stitched. Very nice shop. Very beautiful. Wow. Let’s see. So, this is like a very VIP
shop, guys. So, they have all different suits and dresses. Probably for a wedding, right?
I think so. Yeah. I want to ask the price of this one. How much is this? It’s going to cost
around 5 to 6 million rupees. 5 to6 million. How much is that in dollars? Do you know? $375. It’s
like 40,000 Noli. It’s beautiful, right? This is stunning. Yeah. Well, thank you so much. Thank

mutton soup, no need rice, right? Uh no need. No need rice. Okay. Wow. I’m so glad we spoke to her
because we guys, we didn’t we don’t know what to order, right? So now that we know we can remember
these dishes and if we like these dishes, we’ll keep ordering them. So that’s exciting. Okay,
guys. So our orange just came out and look at that. It’s huge. It’s about as big as my head. M.
Wow, that is fresh. Thank you. Wow. Thank you. Oh, wow. Okay, so let’s try this. I think the locals
actually use their hands. Is it? Yeah. Okay guys, so we just went and washed our hands. Now I want

they’re made from nuts. So cheers guys. M tastes like peanut. Yeah. It’s like yummy eating eating

also the tofu. So, let’s try that. M. Oh, yeah. And last but not least, the soup. Oh yeah. It’s
like bit salty. Really fresh. Really good. I rate this for Indonesian dishes. I’d say a solid 9 out
of 10. It’s pretty good. Sophia, what do you rate this for Indonesian dish? Eight. Eight. Yeah, it’s
pretty good, guys. Okay, guys. And as you can see, we cleared our plates. That was really good. And
we were super hungry from walking around in the heat. Okay. So, now what we’re going to do is go
to CBD Central Business District. Yeah. Which is like the new part of town. So, we just went on
a little side quest. We didn’t vlog. We’ve just bought this beautiful material. So stunning. It’s
beautiful. And uh we’re going to wear this at a wedding that’s coming up. Uh well, Sophie’s going
to wear it, but yeah, we just bought this. It’s a little bit on the expensive side, but it’s
beautiful. And we can’t find anything like this in Nepole, right? Yeah. I think we can’t.
Yeah. Okay. Okay, so we just bought something else as well. Ta. We bought this fabric which is
beautiful. So, this will be for Sophie’s second wedding dress. Uh, no, well, wedding party
dress. We’re already married, by the way. And if you haven’t seen that video linked up here,
shameless plug. Okay, now let’s go to the CBD. Okay, so we are now at the CBD or the central
business district. This area is so beautiful. It’s absolutely amazing. So you can tell that this
is probably one of the nicest parts in the city if not in the country as terms of infrastructure,
pavement, roads. The buildings are beautiful. So this is where all the really five-star luxury
hotels are. all the big businesses, all the shopping malls like Gucci and all big malls. But
we’re going to go in here now. We actually need to buy something for this camera. So, we’ll quickly
buy that and then sort of explore around here. For some reason, I thought we were at the airport
cuz you have to do your bag checking. Yeah, right. It’s pretty nice. But jeez, look at this
place. It is stunning. Okay, let’s find what we need for our camera. Okay, this is DJI. This is
where we need to get our camera equipment. So, hopefully they have it. and they didn’t have
it. But I think another place might have it, he said. So, let’s go see. Okay. And this place
didn’t have it either. I think we can only find it in China. I think so. So, we go to China after
this trip and I think we can get it there cuz they usually have so many aftermarket or like OEM
products for cameras. Like our dog in Australia, Teddy. Yeah, we have a dog in Australia. His
name’s Teddy. What’s my family’s dog? But, uh, he looks like this. So, did we find what I
wanted? No. No. None of the stores have it. So, no worries. Still a amazing amazing mall. Yeah.
It’s absolutely beautiful. Like, just check this out, guys. Look at this. Isn’t that stunning?
Beautiful. Don’t mind the flickering. That’s not in real life. That’s just because of the
camera. But, as you can see, it is amazing. Such a brand new mall. If anyone knows when this
mall was built, let us know in the comments. Salomad Pagi or G and good morning guys from the
first highspeed train station here in Indonesia. This train station was built by the Belton road
initiative from China and today we’ll be going from Jakarta to Bang on the highspeed train going
350 km per hour which is absolutely insane. And today’s train is called Whoosh. Whoosh. Yeah,
that’s right. So, we’ll be whooshing through the country. This uh train used to take around
3 hours on their slow version, but nowadays it’s only 1 hour. So, come along with us today as
we experience Indonesia’s first highspeed rail. And yeah, see the countryside. It should be fun.
Come along with us and let’s go. Let’s go. Okay, so I also just learned that uh this train doesn’t
actually take an hour. It only takes half an hour. Wow. Which is even more crazy. So, from 3 hours
of travel time down to half an hour is just That’s insane. Insane. And it’s so good to see highspeed
rail in Indonesia. Uh even Australia, my country, doesn’t even have any highspeed rail in the
entire country yet, which is just crazy. So, first impressions of this terminal is pretty new,
guys. And it definitely has a lot of different things. You have shops here. Uh you have like a
subway, different types of eeries. You even have a Gojack lounge as well if you want to order
a Gojack taxi. Here you can get your tickets from the ticket machines. It’s pretty nice. And
then also over here you have a prayer room. You have your departure lounge. One thing I forgot to
tell you guys is we are going I almost said flying then we are traveling I should say in uh in first
class which should be epic. So, our ticket was, I believe, around $35, uh, which is pretty good
for a first class experience. And as you can see here as well, the, uh, the entrance to the LRT,
the light rail is from here. So, you can even get a taxi here or use the public transport from the
city center. Enough talking. Let’s get on this train. Okay, so first things first, we need to go
through security, which is quite good. They’ve got an airport style security, which is quite nice.
You know, you know that things are going to be safe once you get inside. But even upstairs now,
there is even so much more food places to eat at, which is great. All of these, I think, are
Texas chicken. I think that might be American, but I think this one is Indonesian. Let me
know in the comments. Whoosh. Whoosh. So, they even have whoosh official merch, which is
so cool. Hello. Wow. So, guys, you can tell the country is really proud of this uh this project.
This is how I roll. Whoosh. I just love the name. It’s so fun. Wow. All little even kids whoosh
t-shirts. So good. You want to get a whoosh hat? Wow. Pink. Pink whoosh. Whoosh. So after
coming through security, you can see that the layout here and the whole building is so nice.
And not just the train and the rail was built by the Belton Road Initiative by China, but also the
entire station, which you can tell because it’s just beautiful. And to be honest, anything that
China builds, it’s going to be big and beautiful. The 2Bs. And just here, we can actually see
the train itself. Uh, which is absolutely a, uh, a mega fast bullet train. The model
we’re going on today is the Fujing. And, uh, this is it right here, just in a smaller
version. So, we’ll be in first class. So, I say this will be where we’re sitting here. Right
here. Oh, that’s where we’re sitting. Y. Okay. So yeah, you can see here that they have a lot more
room compared to the uh ones back here. So yeah, should be fun. I love bullet train.
I’m so excited, right? Woohoo. [Music] Okay, so uh we’re because we’re in first class,
we’re going to the VIP room. So we’ve got our QR code here. Let’s scan this in. Hello. Hello. Oh,
I scan this. Okay, scan. Okay, thank you. Hey, you’re our time. Okay, sure. Oh, you’re first
class. Oh, first class. Okay, I don’t even need a scan, guys. I just go straight in. So, here
we are. The VIP room. Hello. Great. Thank you. Wow. This is the uh first class lounge, guys.
Pretty pretty cool. Nice big lounge. Hello. So, they’ve got some uh some water here and tea and
coffee and a few different snacks as well. So yeah, this will be a good spot to relax. We’ve got
about 25 minutes now before we board. So spacious. Yeah. Right. It’s huge. It’s beautiful. [Music]
Okay. So they just called us for the train. Are you ready? I’m so ready. Let’s do this. Okay.
So this is our train and as you can see it is long. Really long and brand new. Everyone keeps
on like speaking in Indonesian with me. Yeah, everyone thinks you’re Indonesian. Even when they
came to tell us the train was ready, they’re like talking to Sophia in Indonesian, she’s like, “I
don’t understand. I’m not Indonesian.” It’s so funny, right? Okay. Hopefully, they’ll let us take
a photo at the front of the train. As you can see, that is a cool train right there.
Wow, look at that. Let’s go. Let’s go. Okay, so Sophia and I will be here and our friend
Matt is here. I’m so excited. So, we’re in 1 A and C. These seats look absolutely amazing. So big,
right? Yeah. Oh my gosh. Wow. This is so cool. You want the window seat? You have it? Really? A Thank
you. That’s nice. So, you can see here they’ve got a little advertisement. This whole compartment
is uh is just to ourselves from here to here. So, it’s about 1 2 3 4 5 big steps. So, that’s like
maybe 7 m. It’s like a private jet but on a train. Okay, guys. So, we’ve just sat down. Um, and we’ve
got a few more minutes before we leave. I’m pretty sure it will leave exactly on the minute like
most Chinese trains do, but this is Indonesia, so it may take a little bit longer, but no
worries. But, as far as the room goes, we have a lot of room. So, we’ve got the button here to push
your seat back. Whoa. Where’d you go? Here. And we also have this. Oh, yeah. Nice footrest. Yeah.
And we’ve got a little pocket here for all your necessities. And if you fold it over, you can put
it put your feet on here, which is cool, too. So, no matter what way, that’s pretty good. And the
comfiness is Yeah. a solid tent. That’s really comfy. And uh got a nice big area here to put some
drinks or just rest and look out the window. The window’s nice and clean as well, so we can get
some good train window views for you guys. And we’ve also got a hook here as well, which you can
put your bags or anything. Yeah, there we go. So, just like that. So, yeah, not too bad. I have to
say for $34, this is a pretty good experience with the first class lounge as well. I think we’re
going to have a great trip. One other thing as well is they have a light switch which they can
turn the lights on and off. And here they have a nice window shade if you want to get some rest.
Oh, so a power socket which is really good. And what here? Oh yeah, and a power socket down here
as well which you can charge all your devices too. Really good. And we’ve got these little screens
here as well which tell our seat number. And here it will tell us the speed of the train. Currently
it’s 0 km an hour because we’re not moving. So guys, one cool thing here I noticed is just
under this armrest, they also have a table, which is super handy. So if you want to eat some
food or do some work, you can definitely do that, which is great. Hey guys, so we actually
left 2 minutes early, which is even more punctual than the Chinese trains because
we actually left early. It’s crazy. [Music] Thank you. Wow. Okay, so we’ve got our snack
box here or our snack bag, I should say. Living smarter. Moving faster, living smarter. Okay,
let’s see what we got. Water. What’s this? Bread. bread. Yeah. Nuts. Nuts. Mixed nuts. And a
chocolate. Chocolate. And a wipe. Wipe. Yep. Nice. Okay. So, our current speed is 75 km an hour. So,
yes, this train does get up to 350 km, but I’m only told just for a few seconds. uh most of the
speed is around 300 and then when you’re passing through stops it sort of slows down as well. Um
so yeah pretty exciting but uh still a train that goes 350 km an hour is always outstanding. So
if anyone’s wondering why they have these walls along the train the reason being is it stops the
noise pollution going into the city. So any houses that live like just here, it’s uh quite good for
them because you don’t see the train and then also it’s not as noisy. Uh so yeah, it’s quite good. On
this side though, they don’t have it. Uh probably because there’s not as many houses, but here you
can see all the apartments here. So it’s quite good and important to have [Music] just here for
half an hour. Okay guys, so we just went over 300 km an hour. 307 km. Let’s see the next update.
313. I think we’re approaching 350. Let’s see, guys. So, we just went 344 km per hour, which is
basically 350. I’m not going to look up there the whole entire trip. Oh, there we go. 347. So
yeah, basically 350 km an hour. Um, so wow, that is fast train travel right there. Indonesia
is definitely living in the future. 3:47. So good. [Music] Okay, guys. So, not long now until we reach
Bangdong. And once we do, I’m so excited to explore because the city is sort of famous for
its hot springs, its tea plantations, uh its local colonial vibes where the Dutch were here.
Okay, guys. And just like that, we have arrived in half an hour. I hope to see you again in another
journey. Thank you. Thank you. Okay, half an hour. So quick. Just like that. So, so, so quick. So
quick. Okay, let’s go. Where we are? We’re now in another city in Indonesia. Okay, guys. And for
those of you who are wondering what the other two classes look like, business class and general
class, uh here’s what business class looks like. And also here is what general class looks
like. Uh so, as you can see, it’s quite uh quite good. Business class is quite more spacious. And
general class, you know, it’s uh it’s still pretty good for what it is. I mean, the train journey
is only half an hour, so we could definitely go in general and we probably would have, but we
wanted to show you guys our first class and uh what it’s like in Indonesia. So, that’s why we did
that today. But normally, we probably would have picked general class. Okay. So, now we’re going
to get on our free connection on another train into the city. Uh because the highspeed train
doesn’t go direct into the city. So, we’ll get on a quick train now and then arrive in Bangalore.
So, right here, we just got to scan our QR code. So, the funny part about this train we’re going to
get on now is it takes about half an hour to get into the city center cuz it’s a slower train. So,
it’s quite ironic, isn’t it? One city to another, but not quite because yeah, it takes another
half an hour to get into the actual city. It would have been good if they could have
built the line all the way into the city, but I’d guess that cost a lot and would
create a lot more problems logistic wise. So, uh yeah, here’s still good. So the good
part is though for this next train, we actually have our own section which we
didn’t know. So for the next half an hour, we’ve got another first and business class
section. Okay, so here you go. You can see that it’s uh blocked out with this red tape.
Almost like feeling like we’re on a red carpet. Okay, so everyone’s just getting
on the train and then sorry, everyone’s just getting off the
train and then we’re going to get on station to the final station. Put our
bags down now. Time to find a seat. All right, half an hour more and then
we’ll be exploring Bangalore. So, I have to say this train is pretty spacious.
It has lo luggage racks above and also at the end of the train as well. You can
store your luggage. Uh windows are nice and big which is good. So yeah, not too bad
other than it not going 350 km an hour. So pretty comfy. I love this popping color.
It’s pretty nice. Okay, and here we go. [Music] So, I have no idea what’s happening,
but that noise is super irritating. It’s like the train struggling to go. It’s like a generator.
Yeah, the sound of the generator. Yeah. Right. So, this here, guys, was the highspeed line we were
just on. You can see it goes into the mountain there. So cool. So, what do you think so far about
our trip on the two trains? My favorite was bullet train. That’s so cool. And I wanted to spend
more time there, but it was so quick that I disl what do you think of the scenery so
far? Like the houses, the nature. Yeah, the nature is beautiful. And what I like most is
like in the other tree, the scenery is different. There we could see nature and beautiful trees
and everything. And here we see houses and more of like personal life of people living here.
Yeah, that’s right. So good. So good. All right, guys. We’re coming to a stop now. I must say
this train ride was like really loud. Yeah, you can hear the diesel engine. Yeah, it’s
a uh diesel engine, so it’s pretty loud, guys. But that’s okay. Okay. So, I don’t
know if you guys can see that, but it’s uh it’s raining right now. But the good part about
being in business and first class is we’re at the front of the train. So, we’re right near the exit
and we got to walk up this people mover hill. Or we could probably just stand still to be honest.
Are you ready to go to our hotel? Yeah. Yeah. It’s been a big day. Well, a big 1 hour. I know. I’m
tired. Yeah. Same. Most people think that travels, you know, it is fun, but it also is very tiring.
Yeah, especially when you’re always on the move. Okay, so we are now in the taxi going to our
hotel and uh I’ll show you guys the hotel when we get there. It’s booked a pretty nice place
and uh I believe it was only around $30 or $40, so pretty cheap for what we’re going to get.
So I’ll show you guys when we get there. Um, but yeah, first impressions of Bangdong.
Quite nice. Uh, it’s raining at the moment, which is a bit annoying, but the streets look
pretty lively and yeah, should be good. So, we’ll probably go and go out and explore a
bit later. Okay, so we’ve now arrived at Wow, it’s pink. It’s pink, right? Where are we? Moxy,
our new hotel. In our new hotel with our lovely hotel entrance with beautiful vines. Let’s go in
and check it out. I am so excited. I’m so excited, too. So different than we normally stay. Yeah.
By the way, guys, we definitely did pay for this hotel, okay? It’s not a sponsored hotel. Okay, you
go in first. Let’s go. Wow, I love the pink. Super nice. It’s like a boutique hotel, guys. Have
a pool table over there and even a telephone booth. Wow, look at that. Oh my gosh, this is
sick. So cool. Hi. Wow. I love that artwork, too. All right, let’s get checked in. Okay, cheers
to the welcome drink. Wow. Popcorn as well. Oh my gosh. Thank you so much. That’s really kind. Thank
you. M. Wow. And you said free tea and coffee, right? Yes. Wow. Jeez, that’s amazing. Only black
coffee. Only black coffee. Espresso or American. Okay. Okay. Okay, so we just arrived. Sophie’s
already taking selfies. I love it. It’s a nice hotel, right? So, it’s a nice boutique hotel,
beautiful toilet, lovely doors, I have to say. And uh this room is absolutely amazing. Nice big
bed and pretty good view as well. Uh so yeah, not bad at all, right? This is by far one
of my favorite hotels. Yeah. Salomad Pagy or goodday and good morning guys from the
beautiful country of Indonesia. So today we are in Yoga Carta visiting some of the
city’s most amazing and beautiful temples, Hindu temples and Buddhism temples that dating
back before the 13th century. So old temples. And today we’re actually with our guide Ryan.
He’s going to be taking us all around the city visiting some temples and maybe even a volcano
at the end. Yay. So, come along with us today. Let’s get in our drivers and tour guides car
and let’s have a great day. Let’s go. Let’s go. [Music] Hello. Thank you. Thank you. Bye. Okay, so we just
arrived to shopping. Shopping. Yes, there’s lots of shopping. So, we just arrived to Pranan Temple.
This is the main and largest temple in the whole of Indonesia for Hinduism, which is crazy. We’re
going to tell you guys some more history about that soon. But we just walked in and Sophia
is so excited cuz there’s markets everywhere. [Music] Welcome to Pranan. Pramman. We’re still still
learning how to say it. Prabaman temple. Praan. [Music] Welcome to Pramman temple. I
said before this is area is namely Pamaran temple area because this temple is presented in
Pramman village. First the main temple that you show in the Google etc. This is namely Ro Jungan
temple. This namely by Hindus uh god Shiva temple, Rama temple and Vishnu temple. So the tour in here
you will explore this temple first. After that you are have two option. You can directly back to the
exit gate or you want to explore the other temple is the Buddhist temple. Yeah. Namely Lun temple,
BRA temple and temple. You saw from the street. Okay. Perfect. Okay. Thank you. So they also
have brochures for each main country. English, German, French, Japanese, China, Russian, Korean.
Wow. So cool. Should we get the I think English, right? So this is a scaled down version of the
entire park. So the main temple is here and then there’s all different temples and then here is
the Buddhist one. So we’re going to sort of make our way around and sort of explore right now. I
have no idea but we’ll work it out. The stone on stone like that. But the the every stone they have
the interlock system. So like Lego if you see that if you if you see this uh like this one you know
understand. Yeah. Like this like like the groove just here. Ah this one this one met will the the
the line like this. Yeah. Okay. I understand. And why this is uh still not rebuilt? Because they
the the the the UNESCO and the official here, they difficult to find the correct expert for
the uh in system. So in the new uh temple, you see the the the origin stone is from the
lava stone. It’s really dark. But if you see the temple, there’s many color like black and then
a little bit white. That’s the white one is the new one. New one. Yeah. Because they they tried
to find the correct stone, but they didn’t find it. I see. Okay. So here we are at the temple.
Stunning. So beautiful. This is so beautiful, right? Absolutely amazing. So let’s go in. Let’s
explore. Okay, let’s go. Okay, so just here behind me is actually the interlocking stones that our
guide was talking about. He’s just went back to the car now and we have some time to explore by
ourselves. Like incredible to think that this was built in 8th century. Yeah, it’s just amazing.
But our guide was saying like you can’t really rebuild this kind of thing again. Mhm. Especially
with the same uh stone. Yeah. Right. So like all of these stones here, they interlock. So like
you can see all the grooves. It’s sort of like a Lego and that’s how they can stand so straight
and tall. Uh which is really really cool. But so this is the real life Lego. Yeah. But you’re
right. Like being built all the way in the 8th century when they had such limited technology.
Yeah. That’s what it is. And now it’s like what is it almost 1,200 years since then. That’s
insane. Still standing. Yeah. Still standing to this day. They’ve done a lot of restoration
work on it, which we’ll talk about in a minute, but super cool. Okay, so now it’s starting to get
quite busy. We’ve got a few school kids behind us as well. This is quite a famous attraction
here. So, we can just see here now we’re at the uh one of the main ones in the center. And this
they actually call the Shiva Temple. And then the other I think it’s Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva. They
say Shiva is the creator. No. So he was in the center. I think Vishnu is the creator. Is it? I
thought Shiva was the main god. Isn’t it? Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva. This I don’t know. Well, I’m pretty
sure our guide was saying that uh Shiva was in the middle and then Vishnu was here and then Brahman
was on the other side. So, one thing I want to show you guys is that you can see here the stones
that are are lighter color. These are actually new stones that have been carved out into the
temple. And the ones that are really old like sort of this color, this is all um the original
and these stones are made from uh volcanic rock. Whereas the new stones, they couldn’t find any
new stones matching this same texture. So, uh, yeah, they decided to just get the closest
they could to that. But you can see here, like this one, this corner one is a super old
piece. Super interesting how they did that. And you can see these old black ones here.
And then you’ve got a new light color here, which is the new stone that has been used
to restore the building. [Music] Okay. So, unfortunately, we couldn’t film too much
inside cuz there was a no photo sign. So, we got to respect that. But, uh, yeah. What
do you think of inside? Pretty cool. [Music] One, two, three. Yeah. So, for those of you
who are wondering like why is Hindu temples here? I thought Indonesia was a Muslim
country, an Islamic country. Well, it is, but uh Hinduism was actually introduced in the
4th century via the maritime silk road. Indians came on ships into Indonesia and actually did
a lot of trading and also brought with them a lot of Hindu priests and a lot of these things
and this ideology of idol worship and Hinduism came into the area and that’s when they started to
build these temples. Um later in the 13th century uh Islam was introduced into the country and it
took over majority of the country except for a few different islands and few different areas. Uh
so yeah that’s sort of a bit of history about how it happens today. Y interesting. So interesting.
So sort of from the South Asia subcontinent where you’re from Hinduism was introduced all the way
to here to Indonesia which is just crazy. Yeah. I tell you what, guys. I am sweating. We’re now
in the trees. It’s a lot cooler, right? But jeez, it is hot today. Um thankfully, there’s a bit of
a breeze, but I am sweating bullets. Uh so yeah, what we’ll do now, we’ll go to the Buddhism temple
and then uh we’ll go to get in go and see our guide and then drive to our next destination.
Okay. So, we’ve now decided to get a golf cart because walking in this heat is just too much.
So, it’s 20,000 per person, which is like $1. So, not a bad price. Yeah. For this. Yeah. Wow.
Pretty good. So, we didn’t even wait 5 minutes, like 2 seconds, and now we’re already going. Let’s
go. So, we’ve got some Indonesians doing scouts, which is Oh, scouts. Super cool. So, they’re
learning how to do all different things, camping and everything. Hi. Yeah. Whoever thought
there’d be scouts in the temple grounds. That’s uh that’s pretty unique. Were you ever a part
of scout? No, I wasn’t. Did you do it? No, I didn’t. You did scouts? That’s good. Nice.
Yeah. I wish I did scouts actually. It would have been quite a good um skill to have. One
thing that I’m really loving about Indonesia is how much they’re respecting this Hinduism area
and this culture uh this religion I should say. uh because you know in today’s world as you know a
lot of countries are fighting because of religion uh and because of land but ultimately religion
and a whole heap of different other things. So to see a country that’s very accepting like
the other day when we were uh at the cathedral, the Catholic cathedral and just across the road
was the um was the mosque. It just goes to see the harmony and and the Indonesian people think about
different religions together which is awesome cuz yeah, so many places around the world now they’re
fighting because of religion. It’s so good to see that here from Indonesia. So good job Indonesia.
Tada. We’re now at the Buddhism one. And the only way I can sort of tell immediately from it being
Buddhism is I was about to say this is the fat laughing Buddha, but it’s not. Okay. Well, yeah,
I I don’t know how to tell the difference. Let’s let’s go and explore then. So, here guys, you can
see these are all of the old pieces, the old lava stone that was used to create many temples here.
And uh I think some of these have even been taken out and placed nicely in the restoration of this.
Now, the restoration is still going on and we’ll see those workers today working inside to try and
restore this to its once natural glory. Um, when they’re doing the restoration work, they try and
do a exact copy piece by piece down to the, you know, down to the inches. But the strange thing is
I still can’t see how this is a Buddhism temple. Yeah. If anyone knows how to tell the difference,
please let us know in the comments. [Music] Okay. So, we just came out and I think
a fresh coconut is due, right? Yes. What What coconut one do you like? What looks
the best? Do you like this one? Hello. Uh, you want one to share? Yes. Let’s Yeah. Uh, can we
get one, please? Yeah. One coconut, please. Okay. Yeah. Sit down. Thank you so much. Thank you. Wow.
Ice. No ice. No ice. Thank you. Okay. You want to taste? Uhhuh. Wa. That’s cool. And we can even
eat the coconut meat cuz we’ve got a spoon. Yeah. I think it’s good. Is it nice?
Yeah. It’s so good. It’s so hot. Yeah. That’s nice and sweet. M. Good. Okay, so after that really nice coconut
for just $15,000, we’re uh going, which is about just about a dollar, maybe even under a dollar, uh
we’re going to check out the markets. And Sophia’s been waiting for this the whole time. Let’s check
out these markets. Let’s go. Starting from [Music] Okay, let’s have a look. Hello. Hello. How much
How much is this? This 50,000 50 M. Okay. And this one? Uh, 100. 100. Okay. You have anything for uh
20? Huh? 20. 20. No. 20. No 20. Okay. What’s your What’s your final price? Okay. Final price.
Okay. 150,000. No. That’s a bit much, right? Okay. How much? It’s okay. Thank you. 100. Okay.
Already? 100? No, that’s okay. Well, this is our first We’re just looking. So, I feel a bit bad,
guys. But we’ve only That’s our That’s our first store. So, we should explore and try and find
the best price. 70. Yeah, that looks pretty good. This one. This one. How much is this one? 70. 70.
Last price. This 60. And this one, how much? Same. Same. Yeah. And this one? 85. 65. 85. 85. A 85.
Thought you said 65. Okay. I like this. I like the white one the best. This is really nice. You can
do 50. 50. 55. Yeah. Okay. Let’s do 55. 55. Yeah. Okay. So, we just ordered some lunch and we both
got a fresh juice. Cheers, darling. Cheers. Sophia got watermelon and I got orange. That’s pretty
good. So, um I ordered a soup and Sophia ordered um a spaghetti bolognese. So, we’ll see what
that’s like when it comes out. It was pretty cheap. And uh this restaurant’s quite nice, too.
Okay, so we were so hungry we forgot to film, but so far the food is pretty good. My spaghetti.
Well, I’m eating Sophie’s spaghetti. is eating my soup and rice cuz she likes mine more. But uh
yeah, pretty good so far. The portion sizes are a little bit small though, which is a bit
annoying, but other than that, a pretty cheap and tasty meal. So, we are now at a cafe, the Luak
Cafe. This is a luak. It’s like a raccoon. It eats coffee beans. Really keen to taste its food.
I’m not. So guys, anyone who doesn’t know what’s behind us right now, it’s essentially a local
animal like a raccoon that only eats coffee beans and then they collect the poo because it just eats
coffee beans and process it and then you drink the coffee. So we’re basically drinking raccoon poo
coffee. Let’s go try. Oh, wait. It’s you. Yeah, I’m only going to try, not Sophia. So guys, this
is the animal here. It looks a lot like a raccoon. So this is this is what it eats. Yeah, they’re
eating the cherries. Coffee cherries. Oh my gosh. So yeah, basically uh coffee lak is coffee
cherries that is eaten by this animal. We call them luak. Yes. And uh that’s why the name of
the coffee is coffee because they are digested by them. Also because of their uh sensitive nose,
they can save the best coffee cherries. That’s why every beans that come out of them are the greatest
ones. So yeah. So do these guys normally eat beans or these they’re eating something else? They are
futarian which means only eat fruits. No insect, no meat, just fruits and also coffee cherries.
Wow. Okay. So let’s try to open it up here. So you just peel it like this and then you simply take
off each of the shells and then like that. There you have it. Pretty cool. Hours at 120°. Okay. And
then you can see the result over here. Very hot. Yeah. Oh wow. This is more familiar for you guys.
Yeah. Wow. Oh my gosh. Oh, it smells amazing. Yes. Actually, they’re edible. Yeah. I know. I always
eat coffee beans. Oh my gosh. That’s crazy. You can eat them with coconut sugar. No, I just eat
them on their own. No, you have to try. Okay, I’ll try. I’ll try. Wow. It’s going to taste
like coffee caramel. Thank you. Wow. Okay, so we’ve got coconut sugar and coffee
beans. Let’s try. Thank you. You’re welcome. Wow, the flavor is really smooth.
A lot of coffee. Okay, guys. So, let’s try the coffee. So, first I’m going to
taste it without the sugar. Sophia won’t be trying it cuz she doesn’t really like coffee
that much. But I do want to try. You want to try? Okay. It’s quite Oh, it’s very hot. I’ll
put this down. The flavor is quite smooth. It’s like a It’s really rich, but not rich
strong. More like rich in flavor. Low caffeine, low bitterness, low acidity. Yeah. You
want to try? Just take a little sip. You got it. It’s good. Do you like it or I like it? Yeah.
Could you drink the whole cup? No. You’re not a coffee lover. But yeah, guys. is pretty good.
Not bad for poo coffee. I’ve just been let inside the cage. And you can see here the luak is just
chilling. So, they’re actually nocturnal animals, which means they normally sleep during the day,
but this guy, he’s quite fat, too. But, uh, pretty cool. Thank you. Wow. Amazing. I didn’t think
I’d be let in the cage with it. I really want to pat it, but you shouldn’t touch it. No. No. No.
No. Yeah. It’s dangerous. Wow. Okay. Bye. [Music] That is that is soft. Oh my
gosh, it is pouring. Here, hold this. I’ll get it. No, I’ll get
it. You’ll get it? Yeah. No. No. Oh no. Matt, you’re here. Are you okay? No, I’m not. We
got so wet and all of the stuff from the car fell out as we were running out. Oh my gosh, guys.
There is so much rain. Look at these stairs up here. This is like something out of a movie. Oh
my gosh. That is crazy. So much water. Waterfall. Oh my gosh. Okay, so now we got to cross all
the way over there. Ready? Yes. Let’s go. Is that wonderful? Oh my gosh. Put it on. Put
it on. No, that was not fun, guys. My shoes are soaked. Oh my gosh. Are you all right? Okay.
So, turns out we can’t reschedu for later in the day because this is the last session. So, we’re
going to go in these golf carts anyway and then just sit in the waiting area near the temple and
hope that the rain stops so we can walk around the temple. Originally, we got permission to walk
up to the top, but that’s not going to happen in this in this weather. So, um yeah, really
really sucks. Be a fun adventure. Yeah. So, let’s go. You can see, guys, how flooded it is.
It’s just crazy. Oh my gosh. Okay, here we go. Gosh. Okay, so we arrived at the temple. Here
it is. It’s very, very rainy and we are very, very wet. Yeah, we’re very wet and there’s
lightning and thunder everywhere, which isn’t too safe because we’re holding an metal
umbrella. Um, yeah. So, we can climb up there, but I don’t think we’re going to. It’s uh
it’s too wet. It’s not safe. So, yeah. Uh, we’ll see you guys later. Okay. So, we’re
now in a we’re now in a horror film. Uh, we’re about to look for lava coming from the
volcano. So, this is our last stop for today. And our guide is just taking us now. Ryan is just
taking us now. Ryan, do you think we’ll find lava? I’m not sure because 50/50. So, this is what it’s
meant to look like. Obviously, it’s night time, but uh yeah, let’s see. Hello. Okay, so we’re
just going now. It doesn’t look that promising, but let’s see. Okay, so I don’t know if you guys
can see anything, but it’s meant to be there, but the clouds are covering it. So, from here, guys,
there’s dark behind here, but yeah, we’re meant to see it. But unfortunately, the clouds are covering
it, so no worries. But we have this photo. So guys, I just took a night mode shot, right? And
then I zoomed in on the photo and look at this, right? Look how scary that looks. That looks like
someone’s there, right? And then look that that’s what it was. But it was so scary because on here,
look, it looks like a ghost. And then here it just looks normal. Pugy orday and good morning guys
from the beautiful city of Suraya in our favorite country of Indonesia. So today we’re going to
be exploring around Suraya and understanding this amazing city. I believe this is the second
biggest city in the Java region of Indonesia. At the moment we are at one of the very significant
monuments here in Suraya. And this monument represents in 1945 essentially the local uh
Indonesian people were fighting the Dutch and the British for a kind of independence. And uh once
that happened they sort of built this monument. Now, this monument actually represents a uh bamboo
stick showing how the fighters from the Indonesian side were actually young youths and they were
untrained, right? So, that sort of just represents the realness and the rawness and how they sort
of got their uh independence from that. So, yeah, super cool to visit this site today. That looks
spectacular. Yeah. And we’re here in a beautiful blue sky day. So, uh yeah, let’s explore this
beautiful city together. Let’s explore. [Music] So, I’ve came around to uh this side of the
monument and there’s all little fish in here. I don’t know how well you guys can see that, but
yeah, there’s uh there’s fish in here. They have fish. Yeah, we need to find It’s in the plastic.
Oh, it’s stuck in the plastic. Oh my gosh, it’s come right into the plastic. Oh no. Oh, I
don’t know if you guys can see that. I wonder if we can get a stick to help him. And as you can
see here, this shows the uh the movement between the uh the local people and the Dutch and British
forces. So, yeah, quite cool to see. And uh the monument actually stands at 41 m tall. And I have
to say it’s quite a beautiful site to see. So, I’m just going to see now if we can buy food for the
fish. Couldn’t really find a stick to help save that fish, but yeah. Let’s see. You have a fish
food. Food for fish. This? Yeah. Like, is it this? Yeah. How much? 5,000. 5,000. Okay. Thank you,
Kamakasi. So, we got our fish food. Hopefully, what I’m thinking is if we put heaps of fish food
where that fish is stuck in the bag, then all the fish around it will move and hopefully free
the fish. But, I don’t know. It’s hard to say, guys. Oh, there’s the fish there. See, I don’t
know if you can see that, guys, but the fish is in the bag just here. It just needs to turn
around. So, what I’m going to try and do is make all the fish crowd around it, and then hopefully
it will sort of free free the fish. Let’s see. Come on. There we go. All right, that might help
free the fish. Okay, guys. So, sort of good news. I can’t see the fish in the bag, so I’m thinking
either the fish has escaped or it’s underneath the water. I think my plan worked. You can put more
food than that. Yeah, there you go. [Applause] So, I’m hoping, guys, the fish got knocked out of
the bag, but let’s see. But this is really bad, guys. If you come here, please don’t litter.
Like, we literally just saw firsthand how plastic just ruins our environment. Should we
feed the fish on this side? Fish on this side, would you like some food? Woohoo! food. Come. Wow.
I was going to see if I can feed it with my hand, guys, but it’s pretty um it’s pretty dirty as
well, so I don’t think I’ll bother. Here, guys. Take my food. Will they jump up? Yeah. And we’ll
put the rubbish in the bin, guys. Right here. So, no fish get drowned again. Okay, guys. I bought
one more bag cuz I’ve always wanted to just put the whole bag in at once. So, let’s see. I’m
going to put the whole bag in at once and see how crazy they go. First, I’ll get them all here.
Come on, fish. I’ll just put a little bit. So, they come just a little bit. Okay, now I’m just
going to put the whole bag. Let’s see. Wa! They’re just going crazy. Okay, so we are now going to
the other side of the city to the seaside to uh see the ocean in Indonesia here for the first
time. Uh and there’s a whole heap of different other uh like statues and temples and let’s see
a whole heap of other things there. So yeah, let’s go there now and explore. Are you
excited? I’m so excited. One thing, guys, it is so hot today. Already sweating and we’ve
only been out for 10 minutes. Our driver’s on the way now. We’re using the GoJack app. Super easy

mean suraya. So yeah, let’s explore around here. There’s a whole different heap of cool things
happening here. So, uh, there’s horse riding, there’s markets, there’s people. So, yeah,

collect fish, and bring them back. So, yeah, they even have horse riding over here as well.
Ready to Yeah. And it looks like they’ve even dyed the hor’s hair. Let’s Let’s go have a look.

So, I’m just starting to hear that now. Oh, you can see. Wow, look at all the shells. Oh, this
is beautiful. You can see all the kids swimming, too. See all the shells, Sophia? Yeah. So
beautiful, right? I guess it comes off when they when they’re fishing, but maybe this is just
part of the natural beach as well, I think. So, we can see here. I have no idea what this is,
but this looks like a local snack of some sort. It’s really weird. I think it’s from the ocean,
guys. If you know, let me know in the comments. So, right now, we’re just walking through a
little local community. And you can see here, they’re just processing the seafood. Oh my gosh.
Wow. They’re about to open this up and pull something out. They’re shocking. Wow. So, in there
is the seafood. Hello. Hello. Hi. I’m not sure what’s inside there, guys, but these are the empty
shells. You can see that she’s hitting the end off and then opening it up. Wow. Very cool. Thank

this morning. And yeah, more down here is uh is more local area. So, pretty cool. So you can see
here guys, all the locals utilize all the public space as well, just to even hang their laundry,
which is what I love. So you can really see that this is a a local spot. And these little kids

bananas on the inside for them to eat. Okay, guys. So, we’re just getting our next taxi. But while we
wait, I’ve just spotted this uh Everyone’s yelling bully. I just spotted this horse with stars on it
and I think they’ve spray painted stars onto the horse. Oh my gosh. Hello. Oh my gosh. I thought
it was going to charge at me, guys. But yeah, you can see all the stars on it and it’s having
a nice feed. I think the guy who owns the horse knows that I don’t want to ride it, but just
take a photo. So, what do you think so far? I think people are very friendly, especially kids
and like everyone is so confident and trying to talk to you and I’ve always wanted to experience
this in Indo Indonesia. Like I wanted to see the local vibe and local people and everything.
So yeah, this is great. That’s good. Yeah, I agree. Like the local experience has just
been awesome and everyone’s so like they’re so not shy just come and talk to you and then I
get shy now. Yeah, that’s true. Right. [Music] Okay, so we’ve just came to the Song Han
Tang Temple which is actually behind us and we’ll try and go there in a minute. It actually
looks closed. But here is the other side. And uh this is a Buddhism temple and is actually uh
built I believe by uh for the Chinese for Chinese Buddhism. Even though guys it actually looks quite
similar to Hinduism. Now I definitely know that this temple is Chinese here, but I’m guessing this
one is Chinese as well because it’s next door. But if I’m wrong, uh let me know in the comments.
I couldn’t find any information about this one. But you can see Buddha there with uh four heads.
Usually uh when Buddha has more than one head, it usually represents like some type of Hinduism.
They do have Ganesha over here which is part of the Hinduism god as well. So I’m not too
sure. Hello. Hello. Hello. I am Jack. Jack. Jack. What’s your name? Sh. Sean, this is your
brother. Kids here are so cute. Let’s see if we can get inside the Chinese temple. Oh, he’s in
trouble. Flower. Oh, you gave her your flower. Oh, so cute. Curly hair. Wow. So pretty. So
pretty. Wow. I love your hair. A lot of Indonesians don’t have hair like that. Beautiful.
Hi. So pretty. Wow. Oh, thumbs up. Nice. So guys, good news. It’s not closed. Just the two main
gates are shut and the side gate is open. Uh, which is good. Okay. Ready to explore? ready to
explore. Oh, Mickey Mouse is here. Hi, Mickey. Hi, Pink Dormon. Hi, Doron. Okay, guys. I’m not sure
if we can film inside, but let’s see. [Music] Okay, so we just arrived and we walked through
the temple. Uh, it was a little bit weird cuz you had to walk through the temple to come here,
but no worries. But what do you think of this? Just beautiful, right? It’s just stunning. It’s
like China, right? Yeah. So, this is actually a Confucianism uh temple built for Chinese and
Buddhists here in Indonesia. And they say this is like the gateway to the ocean. So, really
beautiful. So, this is Confucism and Towism, which is the sect of the uh of the Buddhism
religion. I didn’t know they prayed to um laughing Buddha, you know, like that. The fat
laughing Buddha. I just thought like there was this like decorative thing. Yeah. But
they they do pray. So you see here they’ve got the incense sticks and everything.
So yeah. And also over here this guy is um selling the ability to take photos with
owls. Um which we which we might do. Should we do this? Yes. Maybe. Yeah. I mean I think
it’s okay. The owls look pretty healthy. Okay. Oh wow. Okay. Oh, he’s only light. And you can see
here, guys, they’ve put band-aids around its claws cuz its claws are really sharp. It looks like
looks a little bit sad, but it’s hard to tell. So guys, these guys are still standing and having
a cigarette. Hello. Hello. Where are you from, sir? Australia. Australia. Nice to meet you,
brother. You’re having you’re having a vape. Yeah. Yeah. Nice. It’s hot, right? Yes. Yeah. Very
hot. You working every day this job. Okay. Well, let me give you some money. Oh, wow. You’ve done
well for yourself. Alhamdulillah. Wow. Indonesia. No. Indonesia. Nepal. Nepal. I was really
surprised, guys, because as soon as I looked in their donation box, they had lots of money. I
thought that they didn’t have much money in there, but it’s still good to give, so that’s good.
Okay, now here’s our next taxi. Onto the next adventure. [Music] Okay, so good day and good
morning guys or saloman pugi from the beautiful Flores Island here in Lumban Bajjo in Indonesia.
We finally made it to paradise. So today’s video is going to be filled of excitement, fun,
diving, beach activities, and most importantly, Komoto Island. That’s right, we are going
to see the Komoto dragons in real life. Today’s going to be a great day and Sophia is so
excited. She’s packing our bags getting ready for our overnight tour today. But what I just wanted
to tell you guys is how we got to this island. A lot of people are quite curious. Do you take a
boat from Bali? Do you fly in? Well, I’m glad that you asked. Uh so we flew from Surabaya. Uh you can
also fly from Jakarta. You can fly from Bali. Many other major cities in Indonesia. And once you
arrive, you can actually uh then book a taxi to your hotel. When we booked the taxi, we used uh
Gojack, which is the app here. But to do that, to book our taxi, we actually used Nomad ESIM.
And you might be wondering, what is an eSIM? Well, an ESIM is essentially just a SIM card, but in
form of an app. So rather lining up for your physical SIM card at an airport where there’s so
many people lining up and it’s super stressful. You can actually download the EIM on the app the
night before. And like as soon as we touched down, we had data. I literally just booked
a taxi to come to this beautiful hotel as you can see here behind me with this
amazing, beautiful beach view. So yeah, quite helpful. So if you’re coming here, make sure
that you download the Grab app, the Go Jack app, especially for anywhere in Indonesia. And uh yeah,
use Nomad to uh to stay connected. So yeah, I’ll uh I’ll go see Sophia. We’ll eat some breakfast
and let’s get today started. Should be good. Okay, so we’re now waiting for our uh for our
guide to pick us up in the van and we’re going to Find Nemo. Find Nemo. But we’re going to where?
Komodo Island. Yeah, we’re going to Komodo Island. So, not just are we going to see the Komodo
dragons, but we’re also going to see Nemo, Dory, and all the other amazing fish. I’m so
excited. So, yeah. Come along with us today. Let’s have fun. Let’s have fun. Okay, our car
is here. Ready to go. Ready to go. Let’s go. Good morning. Morning. How are you? I’m good.
How about you? Good, thank you. Where you from, sir? Australia. Ah, Australia. Nepal.
Yeah. Good night. Good day, mate. [Music] Okay, so we just arrived to the boat terminal and
there’s lots of people trying to sell us things, but uh yeah, let’s see if we can get on this boat. Okay, let’s go. I love the ocean. All right. So,
we are waiting here for half an hour until we get on the boat. And yeah, pretty. Yeah. Yeah. There’s
a whole heap of different shops in the background here. So, this is your last chance to buy any
snacks or beer or anything. I’m good. Yeah, I’m good, too. So, apparently on the islands, like
the alcohol and everything’s quite expensive. Um, so definitely bring snacks and alcohol and
anything that you want to bring from the main island because otherwise you’re going to be
paying probably double on the Komodo Island. So, and I think it’s going to be so much fun.
The ocean looks so beautiful like blue sky, blue ocean like and all the other people that
we’ve seemed to meet who are I believe coming on our boat have seemed quite nice so far.
So, yeah, it should be a good good group of people. What you doing? What are you searching
on traje? I just wanted to know about island, right? Oh. Oh, okay. But it’s just so good
cuz I have nomads. Yeah. There’s no Wi-Fi, right? It’s hot. And I just wanted to know what
where we are about this island. So So Komodo, it has over 2,000 Komodo dragons and diving
and snorkeling, pink beach, hiking and views, island hopping. I think we’re in for a real treat.
Isn’t it good though? Cuz like with your data, you don’t have a physical SIM card. So, you’re
using Nomad, which is just like an app and you just install the SIM card. Super easy, right?
Yeah. Cool. So, you can see guys here behind me. This is a SIM card place for a physical SIM card.
And I just looked at the prices. Super expensive. $40 for 7 days. And imagine like having to stand
there for hours to wait your turn to buy a SIM card. Yeah. Then you have to give your passport.
you have to show your ID, your phone number, all these unnecessary things. Whereas with Nomad,
you just make an account and I checked for the same deal. It was only $15. So much cheaper
and easier, too, cuz you can just lie in bed and install it. These guys, you know, they’re
stressed. They’re not sure when their boat’s about to go and they have to rush and get a SIM
card. Nomad is the way, let me tell you. Sim card, no problem. Nomad’s here. That’s right. Okay,
so finally after 1 hour. Yeah. Not half an hour. 1 hour. 1 hour. We’re finally boarding. We’re
following the orange shirt guy. He’s our guide for the next day. So, yeah, should be good. So,
we have to get on a small boat first and then get on a big boat. So, four people on the small boat
first. So, we can see there’s so many different boats going to all the main boats. Okay. So, here
is our little boat. [Music] Get on. All right. Thank you. Welcome. Okay, this should be good.
It’s quite hot today, isn’t it? Yeah. Okay, bye-bye. Bye. Woohoo. Let’s go.
Okay, I wonder what boat is ours, guys. I wonder if it’s wooden
or white. Let’s find out. Okay, guys. Looks like our boat was the wooden
one just here. So, very quick. Hello. This looks pretty nice, guys. So, beautiful
little chill area and uh a lovely deck where we can take photos. So cool. First impressions.
Amazing. Amazing. Yeah. Got fruit, tea, coffee, biscuits. Beautiful. Lovely. Beautiful view.
The boat is a little bit on the older side, but hey, that’s okay. Adds character. Wow. And
uh this is the captain’s deck down here, guys. looks like where everyone else is sleeping. So,
this is like the shared accommodation. And then this is one of the private rooms with their
own door, which is what Safare and I have. So, uh yeah, this is pretty cool, guys, I have to
say. So, here is another chill out spot at the back. Here’s what the toilet and shower situation
looks like. Pretty basic, but western toilet. Can’t complain. Here’s the back of the boat, the
kitchen. Hello. Hello. And lovely kitchen here. And look at that view. Beautiful. Wow. You’re
the cook. Okay, we’ll get some good food then, right? Yeah. Yummy food. Okay. Very good. And
another toilet in here. And this one, I think, might be a private cabin. I’m not sure. Oh,
yeah. And here is another private cabin. So, yeah. Pretty cool. Wow. Oh, and it even has AC.
That’s uh that’s something I did not expect. I think all of the rooms have AC, actually,
cuz you can see the AC units here. [Music] Okay, so we are finally off and away and moving.
I’m not too sure how long until our first stop. Maybe an hour or so. Yeah. Let’s see how many
actual tours are going to the same spot we are. Hopefully, it’s not too overcrowded.
We’ll uh we’ll soon find out. Okay. So, do you want in the down or in the wrong?
Um I think uh which is which is cooler, not hot in here. It’s cold. No hot. Okay. Okay.
This is good then. Oh, we have AC. Yeah. Air on. Yes. Okay. Great. Not turn on yet. Let me
turn on. Yeah. No problem. Okay. Thank you. So, you can open the Yeah. Wow. Yeah. Perfect. This
is great on the top. We’ve got windows in this one. I’m pretty sure the other ones didn’t have
windows, so this is really good. Downstairs. Yeah. And this is going to be good. We got AC. Perfect.
Woohoo. So, good morning for everyone. How are you this morning? Good. All right. Okay. So, all the
crew belonging agency would like to say welcome to Flores Island. So, my name is Maggas SU tour
guy and the captain his name is Mr. Rama. [Music] Okay, so we just got a briefing from Vgas.
Really, really nice guide, right? Yeah, really lovely. And uh they’ve got a chill
out spot at the back as well. And so, yeah, about an hour and a half to our first stop where
we’re going to see baby sharks. I’m so excited. Are you scared? Yeah, I’m a little bit scared. It
should be okay though. Why is that wood then? Oh, this is like just in case this boat uh stops
working, then we have a emergency boat, but it will also be used to take us to the
island. Pretty cool. You remind everything. Yeah. Speaking of I wonder if we
have data out here. Let’s see. Oh, we do. Oh my gosh. We have five bars, guys.
I don’t know if you can see that. Let me show you. You can see that we’ve got five bars of
data. We don’t have Wi-Fi on board. So, yeah. Thank you to Nomad for saving us. Nomad eim. So
good. The best. So good. [Music] So guys, I don’t know if you can see that. We’ll zoom in, but just
there is our hotel that we just stayed in. So, uh, pretty cool to see. So, there was our hotel
and the mainland, the main town is just there. So, not too far. Relaxing, steering the
boat with your feet. How are you? I’m good. What is your name? Uh, Arum. Arum. You.
Jack. Jack. Nice to meet you. From Australia. Australia. Oh, good. Yeah. Australia. Yeah.
Wow. Nice. Nice. Yeah. Yeah. Very good. So, 1 hour. 1 hour. Time. Time. Okay. Okay. So, we
just arrived to our first spot and uh yeah, this where we’re going to see the baby sharks. Okay.
So, we’re uh just getting changed now and yeah, we’re going to switch over to the waterproof
camera. So, I’ll see you guys there. Okay. So, this will be your first time using this, right?
Yeah. All right. I’ll have to show you what to do. So, yeah, we just got here, guys. As you can
see, it’s so beautiful. And I’ve already spotted a few sharks in the water. Uh but we’ll show
you guys that on the underwater camera. [Music] Okay. So, what happened? Finally, I was able
to swim. You swam for the first time? Guys, we’ve been My mom and myself have been
teaching Sophia to swim for the past year, and she finally swam by herself. This is
the best. You swam from like here all the way out like 20 m. Yeah, it was so much
fun. And we saw so many sharks as well. I’m so proud of you. Thank you so much.
Mom’s going to be so proud of you. Yeah, mom. She swam. You can see, guys, right here
is a baby shark. Oh my gosh. So close. [Music] Guys, I didn’t realize it, but when I
was exploring, taking some shots, I just realized there’s a whole little beach just here.
Wow. How cool is this? Wow. Let’s go. [Music] Guys, look at just how clear this water is. You
can literally see to the bottom. Wow. I love the water. Oh, it’s so cold as well. So nice.
Like not too cold, but really refreshing. Oh, beautiful. Wow. So, this I’m going to take
home. You’re going to take that home? Okay. Found a little treasure treasure memory that
I swam for the first time. It’s amazing. You swam for the first time with baby sharks with
baby sharks in crystal clear waters on a remote island. Couldn’t do much better than that. Thank
you, Lord. Wow. So guys, I just spotted something really interesting. So this guy just came from
one of the neighboring islands, drove all the way here, and then just started throwing coconuts
in the water. And I thought, what’s he doing? Well, he can’t actually come right to the shore
because you’re not allowed to. So, the coconuts actually float when they’re in the water. So,
now he’s collecting them all and he’ll drag them all the way up to this pile here so they can sell
coconuts to tourists. How cool is that? So, yeah, there you go. Didn’t think that was possible.
Okay, look at the size of that. Oh my gosh, it just leaked. Leaking again. How is it? So good.
You want to try? Oh, that’s sweet. That’s really nice. It’s so big, too. Look at the size of it.
It’s almost bigger than my head. It’s bigger than your head. Yeah. Wow. I got a beer for later
as well, guys. I got a bint tang lemon. It’s pretty cheap, too. Only 50,000 for the beer
and 30,000 for the coconut. So, on a island, it’s pretty good prices. So far, so good. I’m just
loving it. It’s really awesome. Wa! Very good. That’s one way to start diving. Okay, so there
is lunch done. We’re here for the next 3 and 1/2 hours on this spot. And uh they’re going to
bring us on this little boat here to the reef. So, are you excited? So, first we got to put on
some sunscreen and then yeah, we’ll get our snorkels and go and explore the reef. We’ll find
Nemo and Dory and all sorts hopefully. Okay, guys. We just saw a massive turtle in the
water here. Now, I ran to get my camera, but now it’s disappeared. It’s about this big. It
was humongous. Um hopefully we see another one, but let’s see. Oh my god. Somebody take a picture.
There’s the turtle right there, guys. Oh my gosh. About to warm up. Wow. Wow. So guys, I just wanted
to show you where we are on the map right now. And as you can see, we’re in between all of these
little islands. And you can see here all of the coral reefs. And we’re about to swim just here
in this coral reef here. But uh yeah, out here in the middle of the ocean, still connected to
Wi-Fi, which is just crazy. Photos to my dad of uh of Sophia and I snorkeling before and all of
this because we had Nomad Eim. So, super easy and definitely recommend you guys downloading the
Nomad app to be able to send photos in real time when you’re on your travels. So, right now we’re
just chilling for the next hour or so and then uh we’ll go and do some more snorkeling.
But I have to say this is just so beautiful. Okay, so we just got to the jetty and uh yeah,
the guy just took us here. Just the that’s our just the three of us. So yeah, look at this
water, guys. This just looks crystal clear. We’ve got our fins as well. So we’re going to have
a good dive and see all the fish. Are you excited? I am super excited. Ready to swim again?
Yeah. Okay. All right. Should be good, guys. [Music] [Music] All right. So, we’re back on the
boat and I’m sorry to do this to you, Sophia. I know that you’re hurting, but what
happened? A jellyfish stung me. So, we just put some alcohol on it. That’s what the guide said to
do, but I don’t know. And then she was like, “Ow, ow, Oh, and I quickly picked her up and put her
in the boat. Thank you. It’s okay. But yeah, she’s going to have a shower now. Everyone else
is still down there, but there was little fish as well that were biting her legs like piranhas. I’ve
never seen that before. So, yeah, it to be honest, it wasn’t that pleasant. Fish biting you and
then Sophia got stung by the jellyfish. It was uh pretty full on. But uh anyway, yeah. So, uh
yeah, she’s going to have a shower now and guess we’ll just relax for the next hour or two. But
really beautiful. There was a lot of fish. Okay, so they’ve now got the tunes going. We’ve got a
few snacks. Mostly everyone’s back now from doing the snorkeling. Got some papaya, some fruit, some
fried banana there. Sun’s coming down a little bit now. Absolutely beautiful. Not too hot either.
Really lovely. And for those of you wondering, Sophia is feeling a little bit better now, but
it still really, really stings for her guys. So, I think we might chill in the bean bags or
something and just have a bit of a break. So, uh it’s sunset time and these boys rode
rode their boat all the way to our boat just to sell us some cool toys and different crafts
that they’ve made, which is super cool. I think this one will look better. This is looks more
natural. So guys, we ended up buying this one, this little manta ray. And this was 50,000.
So about $2 US for this. Pretty good price. [Music] So the boys were just saying that
their home is actually all the way over there, guys. Really far away. And they rode on their
boats for 1 hour just to get here to sell this So, um, yeah, good on them. They’re they’re
on the hustle. So, guys, this village, this village all the way over there, that is where
they live. That is very far. Crazy, right? [Music] Okay, guys. It’s now food time. Look at all
of this beautiful food. So, we got fish, we’ve got chicken, maybe beef, corn, and prawns,
watermelon, some type of something in here. Okay, so we’ve got our food. How’s your food? To be
honest, this is the best food I’ve tried in Indonesia. Really? It’s a lot different to
the Indonesian food we’ve normally had. So homey. Yeah, like on the orangutang tour. It was
quite good there, too. But I prefer this one. You like this one more? Wow. Awesome. Okay, guys.
So, it’s hard to see at night time, but all of these boats here are Indonesian fishing boats, and
they’re only allowed to fish in this area in just small nets. Uh they’re not allowed to use any big
nets, and these are real local fishermen that live uh and have rights to these waters. So, it’s super
interesting. Okay, so after driving around 2 hours from the bats, we’re now about to anchor. And the
boys here are just getting ready to anchor. Sophia is over there. And time to go to bed. Time to go
to bed. So, here’s our room. Half AC. Other people are in the other half. And yeah, the engine’s just
turned off. So, we’re definitely stopping now. And uh yeah, this will be our bed for tonight. See you
guys in the morning. See you. Okay, good morning, guys. It is now 4:00 a.m. and we have woken up
early to go and see the sunrise. All of the other boats here have also woken up and we are going on
a hill just there. Right. Mhm. Just there. See, I just took a picture. Yeah, Sophia just
took a picture. There’s a hill just there, believe it or not. You can’t really see it on
camera, but Sophia’s night mode has got it up looking pretty good. So yeah, we’re going to
climb up the top of that and watch the sunrise. I didn’t know that you’re climbing that. Yeah,
that’s what we’re doing. Oh yeah. Wow. So yeah, it’s going to be good. Yeah, should be good. Okay,
be careful. You okay? Yeah. Yeah. We just made it to the shore. Yeah. This looks so beautiful.
So grand. Let’s uh let’s go. We’re wearing uh flipflops apparently. Uh, let’s see if that’s
good hiking shoes or we might have to change. Everyone else is wearing flip flops, so we should
be okay. Okay, so we just started and flip flops. Hiking with flip flops. And he just said that
it’s going to be around uh 10 or 20 minutes, maybe even 30, depends how slow we are. Wow, guys.
So, we made it. Look how beautiful that is. That’s just stunning. So beautiful, right? Yeah. Oh my
gosh. And uh we’re the only ones in this sort of spot here. There’s a few people over there, but ah
this is so beautiful, right? Yeah. Okay, guys. So, we’ve now got the GoPro on a time lapse for you.
And we just found an even more secluded spot away from everyone else. We’re the only ones here. The
sky is orange, purple, pink. So beautiful. Yeah. Okay, so we’re currently pink and purple. The
colors, guys, are absolutely beautiful. And yeah, you can see there’s more people all crowding up
there. But as we learned on our travels, don’t be a sheep and follow the rest of the crowds.
Sometimes you have to make your own path. So, we’ve came up to the stop no trespassing danger
area. No, we we were told that as long as we don’t go past these signs, then it’s all good. So, we’re
fine here. But, uh yeah, super beautiful. And uh I can’t remember honestly can’t remember the last
time I woke up to watch a sunrise. Can you see? Uhhuh. So this is I’m not a morning person. Yeah,
we’re not morning people. More sunset people, right? Yeah. Yeah. Sunny. This is beautiful.
[Music] Hard to see on the camera, guys, but we’ve got purple, then we’ve got orange, then
we’ve got green, then we’ve got orange again. So beautiful. Now the purple is turning pink. Yeah.
And we can now see the rest of the mountains and stuff now that the light’s coming out. Even down
here, there’s a beautiful little bay area here as well. Black sand. So beautiful. And we can see all
the people as well climbing up. So many different boats, different groups of people. But hey, we’ve
got this whole area to ourselves. Not bad at all. [Music] Okay, so the sun has officially rose and uh
we’re going to walk back down now. And uh yeah, this is what it sort of looked like before cuz we
couldn’t really show you guys. But uh some people are already walking down now. Uh we were told to
meet back down at 6:45. It’s around 6:30 now. So yeah, such a beautiful view though. Amazing. Deer.
Oh my gosh, two deer. Guys, there’s deer just here on the mountain. That is so cool. Oh my goodness.
I didn’t know there’d be deer on these islands, guys. These islands are so small. And just deer
us. Deer is right here. No one has any idea there’s deer here. Any idea? Get it? Wow, guys.
Look at this deer. Oh my gosh, that is amazing. [Music] Okay, it’s breakfast time.
What a amazing day. What amazing way I should say to start the morning. A
lovely climb and then a nice breakfast. Okay, so you probably can’t see that guys, but
it’s currently raining. The floor is a bit wet as well. Uh, so hopefully once we get to the pink
beach, it’s going to stop, but let’s see. Uh, yeah, the weather is a little bit miserable. So,
one thing I just realized, guys, is tomorrow we are actually flying uh to Jakarta to then go on
to China for our next trip. We’re going to China. I just realized we don’t have a hotel booked for
tomorrow night in Jakarta. So, I quickly went onto a go and I just booked the cheapest hotel uh near
the airport. And uh yeah, this hotel is quite nice actually. But I did all of this because of Nomad
Eim. Uh so, right here in the middle of the ocean, two bars of internet, and I just booked the hotel
for tomorrow night. No good. Having an eim is perfect because you can literally do all your
work wherever. Their coverage is just so good. [Music] Okay, so we’re coming up to the pink beach now.
And as you can see, it’s not that pink, guys. Um, yeah, I think over tourism has sort of destroyed
the pinkness. But let’s see how pink it is once we actually arrive. But from here doesn’t seem
too pink. Okay, we’re off to Pink Beach for some more snorkeling. Woohoo. And the water, guys, is
so beautiful. Look at that. Wow. Amazing. Okay, guys. So, we’ve made it to Pink Beach. And it’s
a little bit pink. Just a little bit. Um, just a little bit. You can see the pigmentation in there.
Uh but yeah, we’ve just stopped at this number three uh restaurant and our friend Matt is already
out there snorkeling, but there’s not much coral here. It’s just beautiful clear water. So, it’ll
be really nice to go in. I think Sophia wants a few photos and then we’ll uh we’ll go swimming.
So, you can see guys, this pink coral here is what used to cover most of the beach, but now it’s sort
of dissipated. And you can see here when you come in there’s tiny little pink pieces of coral and
that’s what makes the pink effect. Uh yeah, pretty cool. [Music] So what happened? We were just about
to go in and then we see a jellyfish. Yeah. And I don’t want to get stung again. Yeah. Sophia got
stung yesterday and we just saw a jellyfish and our friend Bin, she just got stuck strung by
a jellyfish as well, right? So, don’t want to do that again. Yeah. Okay, so we’re now back on
the boat. Uh it was raining so much over there, guys. Uh and yeah, it wasn’t that pleasant and the
jellyfish didn’t help either, so we came back. But gosh, the view is just beautiful. So lovely. Okay,
so we’re just going to chill here for a little bit and then go to Komodo Island itself, which is
the one with the Komodo dragon. The famous Komodo dragon. I can’t wait. Are you excited for the
Komodo dragon? Yes. Should be good. Mhm. What is Komodo dragon? It’s like a big lizard. Yeah,
we’ll soon see. Excited. Yeah. Okay, so the rain has finally disappeared. And where are we going
now? Komodo Island. Yeah. So, we’re finally going to see dragon. Finally going to see the Komodo
dragon. So, I think it’s pretty much just straight ahead. I mean, that’s where we’re going. So, yeah,
it’ll be interesting to see once we get there. Okay, so here we are. Komodo Island. I had no
idea it was an actual town. I thought that it was just an island with heaps of komodo dragons, but
turns out it’s a town. It even has its own mosque. Lots of boats are mowed here. There’s plenty
of houses. It’s like a whole happening town, which is really cool. Okay, so we just arrived and
all of these guys here with the sticks look like that they’re guides to show us the Komodo dragon.
So, I guess it’s up in the hills. I’ll show you an image now behind the town. You can see here
guys, all their houses are on stilts. Just the concrete’s just held up by bamboo. So fascinating.
Now you are in Komodo village and let me introduce smell safe. My name is D. I will be your guide
today for seeing the Komodo animal and then to give you information about the Komodo dragon.
Okay, so we’re off. So just before we left, he explained to us how someone died from getting
bitten. Six local people and two foreigners. Two foreigners. And the foreigners were from Singapore
and they went too close to the dragon and they were swinging their bags and this like disturbs
the Komodo dragon. The Komodo dragon bit their leg and the bacteria from the bite in their saliva
actually ended up killing them like about a week later once they got back to Singapore. Hello. This
guy’s going to protect us with his stick. So yeah, we got to watch out. We got to be really careful
cuz we don’t want to get bitten. No thank you. Oh, and wow, this is really a a little
village. They have little goats here. Hi, goat. Hi. Hello. Wow, they
have a big football oval. Okay, so we’re just taking a quick rest. So,
one interesting fact is there’s 1,600 Komodo dragons on this island. Now, our guide was
just saying that on four of the other islands, the Komodo dragons are quite aggressive, but
on this island, they’re not so much because they’re more used to people. So, super
interesting to understand that. Okay. So, one interesting thing we just learned was that
they actually have a antibiotic, an antivenenom, I guess you could say, for the bite nowadays. Um,
so in 2018 when the people from Singapore got bit, they didn’t have that antibiotic, but
now they do, and they have it here uh in the area. So, if any of of any of
us get bitten, then we should be okay. So, that makes me feel a lot better because
I was thinking, what are we walking into? So, guys, here this white stuff on the ground,
that’s actually the Komodo dragons uh feces, their poo. You might be thinking, why is it white?
Well, what they do is they actually eat uh here’s some more here. They actually eat uh all of the
bones and muscles and everything from the deers, from the goats, from the pigs, which is
the type of stuff that they eat. So yeah, believe it or not, they the bones and everything.
They swallow it all. And it’s stomach acid, I guess, manages that. So yeah, really uh really
scary to think about that. Bones and all. Why they eat once a month? Yeah, that’s another good
point. Yeah. So they only eat once a month. They only need to eat once a month and then after
that they’re good. So they sort of like, you know, just go in slow mode and hibernation mode. This
is it. This is real. Wow. What? Why is it so close to the town? Like why isn’t it in the jungle? Uh
because they’re cold blooded animals. Okay. Yes. They’ll stay here. They’ll stay here for control
the Okay. To heat up. I understand. Just mornings. Yes. But afternoons they can leg from under the
tree. Oh. But no sleep just for control the body body temperature. Okay. Wow. You want to take a
picture with Kimodo Dos everyone? Of course. I don’t know. We can take picture with Kimodo like
this. How close do we get? You stay behind her with me. Close. All right. Like this. Like this.
Is this a male or female? Do you know? Is a male dragon. Oh, okay. You stay here. Only stay here
if you want. Wow. Gosh, guys. I’ve never seen anything like this. It’s like a crocodile. Yeah.
Okay, so there’s quite a few people around now and uh they’ve worked out a really good way to
take photos. Uh you can see here, this is our photos. See how cool is that? So they’ve worked
out a way you stand behind the Komodo dragon to take the photo. You can’t get within 5 m.
Otherwise, they’re uh they they don’t like it. So, and I hope this guy isn’t hungry today, by the
way, guys. Hope he’s already eaten like yesterday, so he’s not uh you know, agitated. So, another
thing our guide was just saying is that uh they pretend to be lazy. They pretend to be
asleep like that. And uh when they’re ready, they’ll just come and attack. So, that’s really
crazy. So, they’ll if an animal just comes up, they’ll just attack it. Can they climb trees? Uh
just a baby. Oh, just only baby ones. Otherwise, they get too heavy. So, if we put a baby goat just
there, it would eat it or no? Yeah. Yeah. If they see the baby goat from there, you see the Yeah.
Yeah. There’s one down there. Yes. Yeah. If there see the goat, you can see their move. They’re
fast for a goat tree right there. Yeah. So guys, one thing I’m seeing everywhere is goats. And
uh probably from the people they’re farming the goats, but I can see where the Komodo dragon
gets all of its food from because there’s everywhere. I look like there’s more goats
over there as well. Everywhere is goats. So, uh yeah, he’s a big boy, let me tell you.
This one looks even more big now. [Music] So the the fork in the stick blocks
its neck, right? Or block the neck. Oh, the back of the neck. Oh, you
push it down. Yes. Like Oh, okay. I see. Yeah. Like I see. Okay. Okay. So,
we’re now in the jungle now. And apparently the chances of seeing a Komodo dragon down
here are a lot less. Um, but to be honest, guys, I’m a little bit suspicious as to why
there was so conveniently two of them under the tree. I don’t know. It just seemed too good
to be true. I don’t want to speculate anything, but it seems a bit weird because there’s a
lot of tourism here, so I don’t know. [Music] So, we just found two more by the river here.
These guys are together this time, which is interesting. So, guys, just then the uh the Komodo
dragon opened its mouth. You could see all of its saliva and bacteria inside that it uses to kill
all its prey. Got to say that was pretty scary. I couldn’t see any teeth though, so it must really
do a good bite to uh really get it. So they have total 67 teeth. Yeah. But very tiny like this.
Oh, that’s why I couldn’t see it. Okay. So they’re small teeth, but their jaws must be really strong.
Crocodile. Wow. It’s moving. Oh, what happened? So guys, this nest here behind me is actually used
for the Komodo dragons. Now, they can lay up to 20 to 30 eggs, but once they lay the eggs, they
sometimes actually eat them. And after, you know, after some time, maybe they’ll only end up having
five babies. This is super interesting. Yeah. I just I’m not too sure about this tour, guys. Like,
these next lot of Komodo dragons were placed right next to the souvenir market. Something seems a
little bit off, but I don’t know. I don’t know. I’m not too sure. I don’t know if the uh if the
Komodo dragons have been drugged or if they’re fed every day here. I don’t want to speculate, but
it seems all too convenient. I don’t know. Anyway, but it’s still quite interesting. We’re
we’re learning a lot of stuff about them. So, what do you think about the tour, baby? Like the
whole tour or just this one? Just this part. I think we got really lucky cuz we saw four komoded
dragons without even trying. Yeah. Like just like 5 minutes walk and you bump into one and then
the other. That’s true. Yeah. Kind of felt like easy track. That’s right. We definitely got
lucky, but I Yeah, I don’t know, guys. I’m still a bit suspicious. It’s a bit weird. Like, just
so convenient. Maybe I’m overthinking, but let us know in the comments if you’ve experienced the
exact same spots you saw the Komodo dragons. I’d love to know in the comments. So, a lot of people
in this village mainly rely on tourism. That’s why it’s such a big village. though people are either
making souvenirs, selling souvenirs, guides, um or you know, selling cold drinks and stuff like
that. Um so yeah, it’s quite good for the village. I mean, I’m sure that there was a lot of people uh
when this village first started and uh yeah, they really made a business off the Komodo dragons.
So, it’s quite good for the people here. [Music] Okay, so right now we are about I’d say about 20
or 15 minutes away from the manta rays. Uh this will be our last stop for the trip and I cannot
wait to see manta rays to be honest with you. Uh I don’t think I’ve ever seen one before snorkeling.
I’ve definitely seen one like looking at the water. Uh, so this should be a amazing experience.
Now, I believe that they don’t sting as far as I’m concerned. Um, but yeah, we’ll soon find out, I
guess. Okay, so we have finally arrived to where supposedly the manta rays are. And as you can see,
the water here is so crystal clear and blue and full of coral, I’m sure. So, I think we’ll park
our boat somewhere here, like the other boats. [Music] Okay, guys. I can’t wipe the smile off my
face. We were in there in the middle of the ocean. There was so many currents and everything.
All the boats were going around. The manta came right next to us. We can see here. Matt got the
footage just there, right next to us. You could literally touch its wing, its tail or whatever
it is. Just crazy. That was so cool. I’m It sucks that you couldn’t go, but yeah, it would have it
would have been too dangerous. It was It was so strong. Puggy or GD. And good morning, guys, from
the beautiful island of Borneo. That’s right. We are in Borneo for me. This is the third time on
the world’s fourth biggest island. There’s Borneo, Malaysia, Borneo, Indonesia, and Borneo Brunai.
Today we are on Borneo, Indonesia and we are going to see canonized monkey or what is commonly
known as the orangutang. We’re going to spend the next 2 days on a river cruise seeing different
types of monkeys, birds, and most importantly orangutangs in their natural habitat in the
jungle of Borneo. So come along with us today. We’re just packed up in our hotel. Let’s go
and let’s have fun. Let’s go. Woohoo. [Music] Okay, so we’ve just arrived and uh here we go down
to the river. Let’s go. Wow, this is super local, guys. So, uh the river is just behind these
houses. Are you excited? I’m so excited. So, uh right now, guys, we’re walking on top of water.
This is all uh just a deck and we’re about to board the boat. Some of the staff members came out
to help with our bags. Wow, look at this. Amazing. Okay, my new head. Okay, here we go. My new head.
You said tall. Very tall. Okay. My head. Good job. That wasn’t hard. No, that wasn’t hard. Wow.
Hello. Hello. Wow. This is I can tell it’s already going to be a local experience. This one. Okay.
Well, I think guys, this is our this going to be our room. They’ll shut all the curtains. This is
going to be our room for the next two nights. Wow. This is going to be so in nature. Yeah. All right.
Oh my gosh. Wow. I didn’t expect this. I thought it was going to be enclosed, but they’ll roll all
the blinds down, I guess. Whole chill out area, hammock, bean bags. Oh, I can get used to this for
2 days. Oh my gosh, it’s already so quiet as well. I thought there was going to be more tourists
coming, but it’s only us. Okay, so we’re just up the top now. So, are you excited for the next 2
days? I’m very excited. I can’t believe this whole boat is to ourselves. I know. I thought there’d
be other tourists on here, but we booked a public tour, but there’s only us booking it, so now it’s
turned into a private tour. Lucky. Yeah, guys, the private tour was like quite more expensive.
So, this is uh this is really good. So lucky. And there’s three of us. And then there’s going
to be four crew. So, more crew than guests. I love our bedroom. It’s so nice, right? So,
we just got a tour of the toilet, guys. So, it even has its own shower and you just flick
that switch to turn on the pump. It has a toilet and a sink. I mean, what more could you ask for?
This is amazing. Hello. How are you? How are you? Good. How are you? Very well, thank you. I’m nice
to meet you. I’m tell Okay. Uh your backup right here. Please come upstairs. Okay. Perfect. Welcome
on board. So this is a home way from your home. So you’re going to sit right here 3 days and two
night with us with the crew right here on this board. Right. We have a two cabin. We have a royal
master cabin with a private bathroom. In the night time later on we going to covering one side and
then we keep open one side. So there is air come inside to you in the night time. And then your bed
also is going to be set up with a mosquito on it. There is no mosquitoes down. That would be
really good, right? Yeah. This is important things. You know, during in the daytime there is
no mosquitoes on the boat, but later on when you start to walk to the jungle. Yes, for sure. It’s
going to be lot of mosquitoes and then they will love you so much. For sure. Very mosquito. Very
smart, you know. They know it’s the new member, the fresh one coming. Okay, guys. So, now we are
at the mosque. You can see we’re currently docked up, but uh soon we’ll be uh we’ll be heading
off. This is really cool. You can see this is where they steer the boat and everything.
This is the uh whole area for the crew. So, this where all the crew will be staying.
They’ve got all their mattresses. And uh this is bathroom number one, bathroom number two,
and bathroom number three. So, a lot of bathrooms, which is good. Yeah. In here, the kitchen. And
uh they’re currently cooking up some lunch. And uh she’s got all of the food ready for us for the
next 2 days, which will be great. And then yeah, you can see here this is where we can look out.
Yeah. So in here they have one uh bedroom for the guests and then another bedroom here on this
side as well, which you can see here. So right now we’re just putting on some mosquito repellent.
It’s very important. It’s very important. Like there’s no mosquitoes currently, but it’s best to
just be protected. always important to, you know, get protected before it actually happens. Okay,
so the engines have started. We’re coming off the dock now. Careful. Okay, now we won’t return
back to this spot for another two nights and 3 days. Bye. Now that we’ve started moving,
the breeze is coming in the hair as well, so it’s a lot less hot. Yeah, this is
going to be a perfect trip. [Music] Okay, lunch time. Wow. Have some
noodles, rice, vegetables. Wow, fish. Okay, so let’s give this a try. We
got the fish, rice, vegetables. Let’s go. I’m not even exaggerating for the camera. That
is beautiful. So fresh. Okay, guys. So, right now we’re heading into the jungle into the smaller
rivers, into the mangroves. So, this is where we’re going to be a lot closer to the riverside
where we’ll see monkeys, birds, orangutans, crocodiles, you name it, it’s uh it’s in this
water. Okay. So now if you can see that we’re 15 km down this little river here into the Sukum
Yen River off the main river into the smaller river. So what what what palm did you say this is?
The nippa palm. And what what is the fruit name? Uh Timbatu. Timbatu. And orangutangs eat it. And
human human. Okay cool. Wow. So the fruit guys uh hangs around the bottom of the palms and yeah the
orangutangs eat this as well. [Music] So enjoy. Thank you so much. Wow. Bit of fruit. I I’ll feed
you. Okay. Okay. Shall I sing a song for you? It’s okay. Okay. [Music] Okay, guys. So, it’s almost uh
1:00 and we’ve got 2 hours to get to the feeding platform before the orangutangs come. So every day
at 3 p.m. the orangutangs they come to the feeding platform and uh yeah so the orangutans are still
wild animals but they feed them to sort of you know help them along their journey of surviving
in the wild due to all of the uh deforestation and palm plants coming in for the palm oil. A lot
of their natural habitat has been destroyed. So rather than keeping them in cages, they’ve left
them in the jungle. these feeding platforms every day. Give them a little bit of food to keep going.
Are you excited to see the rangutangs? I am heaps excited. Never been this excited before. Have
you ever seen Rangutangs before? No, I’ve never seen it. Awesome. I think I’m going to cry cuz
I’m really excited. You know that they share 98% of our DNA. Wow. Yeah. Yeah. I was wondering why
does it look like you? So that’s why Sophia thinks I look like a orangutang, guys. Okay, so we just
saw our first gibbon. That was a gibbon, right? Proboscus. Proboscus. We just saw a proboscus. I’m
getting confused with the names, guys. And uh this was the second family that we saw, but apparently
there’s all of them all along here. So we just got to look in the treetops. And if the trees move,
that means they’re jumping in between. So, we just got to find moving trades. Okay, so we’re just
passing through Sukuna village now and this has a population of around 200 people. Okay, so we just
arrived to camp 1 where feeding starts in about 1 hour and there’s the information center just
here. So, we’re going to go check that out. Okay, so now we’re going to the information center. We
just got across on the boats here. Okay, awesome. So, we’re just in the little village information
center. They’ve got some local chickens here. And apparently there’s a orangutang just over here.
Let’s go have a look. Okay, so we’re just walking through the jungle now to uh find the orangutang.
All the other tourists are on the boat. Um well, most of them. So yeah, let’s see if we can find
it. Wow, guys. So he’s just sitting here chilling, eating some sweet potato. That is so cool. I’ve
never been this close and personal with a ring thing before. This is absolutely amazing. You
can see how big they are. It’s just crazy. So, this is a young male. His name is Fo. And he’s
just so chill as well. Like, he’s so used to humans. So, what he’s currently doing, guys, is
he’s peeling off the outer skin with his teeth and then dropping it on the ground. From there, he’ll
eat all the juicy part of the sweet potato. It’s such a smart animal. Okay, bye. Okay, guys. So,
this is the museum, and it shows all the different types of wildlife, unique wildlife that we’ll see
over the coming days. So, there are the different monkey. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 nine species. Wow. And
these are all the fruits that they eat, too. Where are we? Here. M yeah. Okay. Oh, they’re different.
They’re big mouse. So guys, in the forest floor, they have clouded leopard. They also have
orangutang, monkey, possum looking thing, bat, and birds. So each segment of the forest. Okay guys,
so that museum was super interesting. Here you can see the different scientists coming to the forest
and doing their research about orangutans, about different species. They even have clouded leopards
here, which is just insane. Now this whole village was actually built uh for the feeding platform but
for also to research and uh for scientists to come here and stay and uh do their research from here.
So it’s super interesting as our guide was just saying that the different types of orangutangs
it is possible for them to have babies but the babies may not you know come out the best
uh so it’s best not to breed them. So yeah uh when these type of orangutangs different
orangutangs are in conservation they usually don’t keep them together. So, what do you think
of the research facility? It’s really cool cuz we would we know like what we are doing and what we
have here and what can we expect. Yeah. Right. So, maybe we might even get to see a clouded leopard.
Yeah. And that this is my first time uh seeing the egg of crocodile. Oh, there you go. Okay, cool.
So, right now our guide is just sorting out the paperwork for us to enter into the uh to the
national park and the ranger. We’ll find the ranger inside as well. And at 3:00, they do all
of the feeding. So, I can’t wait to see how many orangutangs we’ll see. Uh, right now, our guide
was just saying that it’s not fruit season. Uh, which is actually a good thing to be honest
because we’ll get to see more orangutang. But when it’s fruit season, there’s so much fruit that
most of the time the orangutans don’t even really come because they can’t be bothered. There’s just
so much fruit where they live. So, just here, guys, is a whole heap of different signs. These
are endemic herbs. That means they only grow here. Yeah. Yeah. Which are used for medicine. So
there’s all different types. And they’ve got all the samples and put it all into one spot. So we
can see those and they’re used for all different types of medicine. [Music] [Applause] [Music]
That’s orangutang, right? Yeah. Yeah. I think. Yeah. The big one. Roger. Roger. Roger. Okay.
Roger’s making some noise. He’s ready. He’s the king. He’s the king. Roger is the alpha male.
Yes. Okay, guys. So, we just spotted a baby. Two babies, actually. And their mom. This little one
here, guys, is just so cute. It’s just chilling up there in the tree, looking down at us. So curious.
We are half an hour until the feeding. So, these guys are just waiting patiently for their
fruit and their bananas cuz there’s not much fruit this season. So, they’re here early. So, guys, now
we came around to this side of the tree. It has a much better view of mom and the baby. Now, our
guide was just saying that the baby is only 1 year old. Uh, and you can tell by looking at it, it’s
so cute and just learning the ways of the forest. So, guys, another interesting fact is the other
one is just 3 years old and it will stay with its mom until 7 years old. Uh so after this one was
born, the male from the group came to the female again and that’s why she has an upper baby. But
uh the males don’t really stick around. They are more just solitire. So it looks like we’ve spotted
another one. So we’re just trying to find it. But we can see it moving up in the trees. Is that the
big one? Roger. This is the main one. Roger. Wow. Roger’s very big. Okay, guys. The alpha male Roger
is just chilling here. He’s the big boy. That was so scary. He stopped, looked back, and I thought
he was going to come and charge at us. Here he goes again. Oh my gosh. This is crazy, guys. What
do you think? Oh my gosh. This is such a cool experience. Wow. So, here’s Roger, the alpha male.
And everyone’s around him right now. Wow. Big boy. [Music] So you can see here as well guys, we have
another baby and mom. The baby’s currently just having milk for mom. Okay, guys. So, as
you can see, there’s another lover and the baby just waiting. And here’s the feeding platform.
So, only 20 minutes now until it starts. So, all the orangutan tanks are arriving. And
the orangutangs are super smart because they don’t wear watches on their wrist, but
they know what time of day is feeding. So, you can see this orangutang up here. Unlike
monkeys, they jump in between the trees, but orangutangs actually swing. So, they’ll grab
another branch and pull it towards them to go to the next tree. So, as you can see, guys,
up here, this is uh this is a orangutang nest and actually build a new nest every day,
believe it or not. So, uh yeah, that’s super interesting to see one so close. Guys, I’ve
just got a dragonfly that landed on my fan. [Music] Heat. Heat. [Music] So, we just got some beautiful cold towels.
Ice cold towers. Ice cold towers. Oh, it is uh it is warm on this boat and through the
forest. It’s so humid. You can see all the boats, guys, all piled up. So, yeah,
we’re going to head off soon. But the company’s been so kind to give us some
cold drinks as well. Shotgun the Sprite. I have to say our boat’s pretty good compared to the
others. Okay, so we’re now just pushing off. I love all the crew though. All the crew
help each other. Make sure that the boat isn’t going to crash into another boat.
So, we’ve just been given some lovely fried banana. Look at that. Wow. Yum. I
love banana. Okay. How is it? So yummy. Not bad. So that was an amazing experience
at the feeding platforms. Now I have to say it was a little bit like touristy. There was a
lot of people there. And it’s interesting cuz the orangutans are very used to the people. I
think it’s like quite a good system, you know, because the humans can keep monitor of the
orangutan tanks to make sure that they’re healthy, to make sure they’re okay. At the same time,
it’s like should humans be interfering with the wildlife? It’s hard to say, but I think like
education about the orangutangs, about how they’re losing their habitat, about palm oil, these trips
are really good for that. And it’s, you know, really educating people about our environment,
how to take care of it. So far, I think the way that they’re doing it is really respectful to the
orangutangs and quite interesting. So, right now, we’ve just stopped and just here we’ve got a
rangutang and then up here is a monkey. Bit hard to see cuz they’re quite far away, but yeah,
this jungle is just full full of life. So cool. So, they’re just anchoring for tonight. And
uh yeah, this is where they normally stay. So, they’re just saying that this spot is a really
good spot because it’s quiet and not many boats actually come here. Well, that’s a good way to
uh get it out. So, he’s just anchoring the boat now. Strong. Not going anywhere. Okay. Okay.
So, now that we’ve tied up for the evening, uh they’re even fishing off there. Yeah. Time to
have a shower, maybe play some games, play some, you know, eat dinner, and have an early night.
What do you think so far of the whole tour? It’s really good. It’s very rare also. And I like how
we are outside of the city in the nature and you can literally hear birds and it’s just so quiet
and beautiful. Yeah. It’s amazing. I love it. Yeah. It’s so good. It’s incredible. Yeah. Okay,
guys. I don’t know how well you can see us, but right now I’m getting a really nice massage from
Sophia. And it’s almost dark here now. The sun is just going down. Okay, so we’ve got our candle
light dinner here. Watermelon, chicken, rice, some chili, sambol, uh noodles, and veg. This
should be good. Excited. And good night, guys.

Istiqlal Mosque in Jakarta is open to tourists, both local and international. Non-Muslim visitors are welcome to enter and explore the mosque’s beautiful architecture and learn about its cultural and historical significance, as long as they dress modestly and respect the ongoing religious activities.
The mosque also provides *free guided tours* in several languages, including English, where guides explain the history, architecture, and spiritual meaning of the mosque. It’s recommended to visit outside prayer times to avoid interrupting worshippers.
Get out, trush
Your video is really amazing mister
Diremehkan dan diberitakan jelek oleh media-media barat. Kenapa ? Karena Indonesia 🇮🇩 adalah surga dunia dan mayoritas orang barat lebih memilih neraka di dunia. Selamat Datang di Surga Dunia
Why is Indonesia the most underestimated country in the world?
