And I haven’t even explored it in its entirety.
From volcanoes and rice fields to local villages and bustling towns, temples, caves, beaches, waterfalls, and all kinds of unique wildlife.
And to top it all off, incredibly kind, open, and welcoming people throughout the country — children waving and saying hello, adults smiling and offering help wherever they can.
Indonesia (outside of Bali) seems underrated.
