Indonesia – Land of the sea
From the heart of the Jungle, Borneo, our journey led us to the land of the sea - Indonesia. After our short detour to Derawan Islands, we continued our route via Plane to Makassar on Sulawesi. While we initially wanted to stay longer on Sulawesi, we had to adapt to our journey to our low budget and time, so that, after three days in Makassar (not a very pretty...

Everest, Nuptse, Lhotse, and many more. During our hike we saw the beautiful landscape of the Himalaya and experienced the struggle of small oxygen levels at high altitude. We tried to capture the beauty of this place...
