• It was #snorkeling time again! ⠀ Only a few kilometers off the #Lombok mainland lie Gili Trawangan, Gili Meno and Gili Air. ⠀ The powdery white sand beaches and crystal-clear waters around the Gili Islands draw visitors from all over the world, getting more and more popular each year. That was the main reason why we first hesitated if we should pay the islands a visit or not. Fortunately we decided to give it a try and hired a boat for a snorkeling trip around the three islands. Snorkeling in the calm and azure waters with its coral reefs teeming of marine life was already striking, but the encounter with sea turtles made it an outstanding, memorable experience. ⠀ __________________________________⠀ ⠀ 🗺️ #TravelDiary⠀ 📅 Day 537 of our trip around the world⠀ 📆 Date: 2019-10-28⠀ 🌍 Country: #Indonesia 🇮🇩⠀ 📌 Place: #GiliIslands⠀ 📷 Cam: #YI4KPlus⠀ 🔖#ALifeLessOrdinary⠀ __________________________________⠀ ⠀ #seaturtle #turtletime #turtlelove #instaturtle #spotmydive #underwaterphoto #underwaterlife #uwphotography #snorkelinglombok #snorkelingtrip #gililife #lombokisland #lomboktrip #explorelombok #lombokexperience #placestovisit #PesonaIndonesia #exploreindonesia #indonesiatrip #triparoundtheworld #YIFamily #yi4k #xiaomiyi4k @yitechnology @thegiliway

  • Day three of camping on the secluded beach in the north of Lombok. In the early morning, our only neighbours - big coconut palm trees - still offered us some shade, but during the day it got incredible hot. Good that the sea was not too far away 😉 ⠀ __________________________________⠀ ⠀ 🗺️ #TravelDiary⠀ 📅 Day 536 of our trip around the world⠀ 📆 Date: 2019-10-27⠀ 🌍 Country: #Indonesia 🇮🇩⠀ 📌 Place: #Lombok⠀ 📷 Cam: #NikonZ6⠀ 🔎 Lense: #NikkorZ2470f4⠀ 🔖 #ALifeLessOrdinary⠀ __________________________________⠀ ⠀ #coconuttree #campspot #lombokisland #lomboktrip #explorelombok #lombokexperience #exploreindonesia #discoverindonesia #indonesiatrip #Overlander #overlanding #OverlandLife #traveltheplanetoverland #indonesia4wd #GWagon #GClass #StrongerThanTime #HomeIsWhereYouParkIt #HomeOnWheels #ExpeditionVehicle #AdventureMobile #GLife #campingcar #campingday

  • By following the palm trees further and further, we luckily landed on a flat spot where we could park our #GWagon without risking to get hit by a falling coconut. A #campspot where only a few fisherman passed by and where we could fully indulge into a kind of Robinson-Crusoe-feeling. This was definitely worth the efforts we put in to get there. ⠀ __________________________________⠀ ⠀ 🗺️ #TravelDiary⠀ 📅 Day 535 of our trip around the world⠀ 📆 Date: 2019-10-26⠀ 🌍 Country: #Indonesia 🇮🇩⠀ 📌 Place: #Lombok⠀ 📷 Cam: #DJIMavicAir⠀ 🔖 #ALifeLessOrdinary⠀ __________________________________⠀ ⠀ #lombokisland #lomboktrip #lombokexperience #exploreindonesia #indonesiatrip #overlanding #OverlandLife #traveltheplanetoverland #id4wd #Mercedes #GClass #StrongerThanTime #HomeIsWhereYouParkIt #HomeOnWheels #ExpeditionVehicle #AdventureMobile #GLife #gameofdrones #dronestagram #dronepic #droneshot #aerialshot #birdseyeview

  • To avoid more crowds, we tried hard to find a secluded and quiet place to camp. The tracks that lead to this places are often rough or almost non-existent. Sometimes this can be challenging with a car, especially if you care about the surroundings and do not want to destroy any plants or leave otherwise any unwanted trace. But also this time our efforts paid off: by slowly following this track we found a fantastic camp spot on the beach. ⠀ __________________________________⠀ ⠀ 🗺️ #TravelDiary⠀ 📅 Day 534 of our trip around the world⠀ 📆 Date: 2019-10-25⠀ 🌍 Country: #Indonesia 🇮🇩⠀ 📌 Place: #Lombok⠀ 📷 Cam: #NikonZ6⠀ 🔎 Lense: #NikkorZ2470f4⠀ 🔖 #ALifeLessOrdinary⠀ __________________________________⠀ ⠀ #lombokisland #lomboktrip #explorelombok #PesonaIndonesia #exploreindonesia #indonesiatrip #triparoundtheworld #Overlander #overlanding #OverlandLife #traveltheplanetoverland #id4wd #iofindonesia #offroadindonesia #Mercedes #GClass #GWagon #W460 #StrongerThanTime #OffroadCamper #AdventureMobile #ExpeditionVehicle #GLife #yukmulaimotret

  • We haven't been at a waterfall for quite some time. The more did we look forward to visiting this impressive #waterfall close to Mount Rinjani on Lombok.⠀ ⠀ Fortunately, we did start the hike to the waterfall early in the morning and so we had this beauty to ourselves for a while, admiring the mesmerizing cascades. But it did not take long before big tourist groups invaded this peaceful place and turned it into a random Instagram selfie station 😒 ⠀ __________________________________⠀ ⠀ 🗺️ #TravelDiary⠀ 📅 Day 533 of our trip around the world⠀ 📆 Date: 2019-10-24⠀ 🌍 Country: #Indonesia 🇮🇩⠀ 📌 Place: #TiuKelep⠀ 📷 Cam: #NikonZ6⠀ 🔎 Lense: #NikkorZ2470f4⠀ #ALifeLessOrdinary⠀ __________________________________⠀ ⠀ #airterjuntiukelep #tiukelepwaterfall #waterfallphotography #Senaru #lombok #lombokisland #lomboktrip #explorelombok #lombokexperience #lombokexplore #placestovisit #PesonaIndonesia #exploreindonesia #discoverindonesia #indonesiatrip #triparoundtheworld #worldtrip #placestovisit #yukmulaimotret #nikonindonesia

  • A stop at a hostel in Senaru, a small village that sits right at the base of Mount Rinjani.⠀ Normally, the village is the jump-off point for hiking the active volcano that towers over the island of Lombok. But currently all trekking activities are prohibited due to raging forest fires. The smoke was so dense that it was swallowing the entire mountain and we couldn't get a single glimpse of the volcano. So we used our stop there to get some car #maintenance works done. ⠀ __________________________________⠀ ⠀ 🗺️ #TravelDiary⠀ 📅 Day 532 of our trip around the world⠀ 📆 Date: 2019-10-23⠀ 🌍 Country: #Indonesia 🇮🇩⠀ 📌 Place: #Senaru⠀ 📷 Cam: #NikonZ6⠀ 🔎 Lense: #NikkorZ2470f4⠀ 🔖 #ALifeLessOrdinary⠀ __________________________________⠀ ⠀ #lombokisland #lomboktrip #explorelombok #lombokexperience #lombokexplore #lombok #PesonaIndonesia #exploreindonesia #discoverindonesia #indonesiatrip #triparoundtheworld #Overlander #overlanding #OverlandLife #traveltheplanetoverland #GWagon #GClass #Puch #GLife #StrongerThanTime #HomeIsWhereYouParkIt #HomeOnWheels #yukmulaimotret @rinjanisunsethostel

  • The spontaneous ideas are often the best ones ...⠀ We just drove for about ten minutes in the morning, when we passed an inconspicuous sign for #snorkeling around some tiny islands. We turned, inquired at the shabby kiosk about the costs of hiring a boat and 30 minutes later our boat was already on the way to the first island. What a lucky find! Not only that there was not a single tourist around, also the snorkeling at the coral reef around Gili Bidara was simply fantastic. ⠀ __________________________________⠀ ⠀ 🗺️ #TravelDiary⠀ 📅 Day 531 of our trip around the world⠀ 📆 Date: 2019-10-22⠀ 🌍 Country: #Indonesia 🇮🇩⠀ 📌 Place: #GiliBidara⠀ 📷 Cam: #NikonZ6⠀ 🔎 Lense: #NikkorZ2470f4⠀ 🔖 #ALifeLessOrdinary⠀ __________________________________⠀ ⠀ #snorkelinglombok #snorkelingtrip #beachview #pantaiindonesia #lombokisland #lomboktrip #explorelombok #lombokexperience #lombokexplore #placestovisit #PesonaIndonesia #exploreindonesia #discoverindonesia #indonesiatrip #islandparadise #TravellersLife #beachlife #worldtrip #triparoundtheworld #yukmulaimotret #nikonindonesia

  • After only three days on Sumbawa, we arrived on Lombok by ferry. First act on this island? #Laundry! ⠀ ⠀ Unfortunately, in Indonesia the much appreciated coin laundries are almost non-existent. Luckily we found a small dive hostel (@eastlombokdivehotel) directly on the beach with a washing machine. There we could not only do our overdue laundry, but were also allowed to camp and use their other facilities for a small fee. ⠀ __________________________________⠀ ⠀ 🗺️ #TravelDiary⠀ 📅 Day 530 of our trip around the world⠀ 📆 Date: 2019-10-21⠀ 🌍 Country: #Indonesia 🇮🇩⠀ 📌 Place: #Lombok⠀ 📷 Cam: #NikonZ6⠀ 🔎 Lense: #NikkorZ2470f4⠀ 🔖 #ALifeLessOrdinary⠀ __________________________________⠀ ⠀ #laundryday #lombokisland #lomboktrip #lombokexperience #lombokexplore #PesonaIndonesia #exploreindonesia #discoverindonesia #indonesiatrip #TravellersLife #Overlander #overlanding #OverlandLife #traveltheplanetoverland #iofindonesia #Mercedes #GWagon #StrongerThanTime #HomeIsWhereYouParkIt #HomeOnWheels #ExpeditionVehicle #AdventureMobile #yukmulaimotret

  • Dry expanses as far as the eye can reach … that's what we saw when looking out of our car's windows while driving along the mostly traffic-free Trans-Sumbawa Highway. We had to cross the island of Sumbawa, which lies between Flores and Lombok from east to west and planned to do this quite quick. Nevertheless, we still had time to search and find well hidden camp spots along the route. The earth there was actually so dry that - for the first time on our trip - we were surrounded by #cactuses. ⠀ __________________________________⠀ ⠀ 🗺️ #TravelDiary⠀ 📅 Day 529 of our trip around the world⠀ 📆 Date: 2019-10-20⠀ 🌍 Country: #Indonesia 🇮🇩⠀ 📌 Place: #Sumbawa⠀ 📷 Cam: #NikonZ6⠀ 🔎 Lense: #NikkorZ2470f4⠀ 🔖 #ALifeLessOrdinary⠀ __________________________________⠀ ⠀ #cactus #cactusofinstagram #campspot #gosumbawa #sumbawaisland #amazingsumbawa #sumbawabesar #sumbawaexplorer #exploresumbawa #PesonaIndonesia #exploreindonesia #discoverindonesia #indonesiatrip #Overlander #overlanding #OverlandLife #traveltheplanetoverland #iofindonesia #GWagon #StrongerThanTime #HomeIsWhereYouParkIt #HomeOnWheels #yukmulaimotret
