Travel time to get there: A total mission
24 hours travel time

Lagundri Bay, Nias Island


Petronas Towers in Malaysia.
Just a pair of some pretty tall buildings.


The reef behind me used to covered in a meter of water before the earthquake in 2005. Now the reef is only covered by a few inches of water at high tide.

Before..

After.
 VIP lounge in Medan, Indonesia. For only 6 american dollars, we received buffet, private security line, and private bus to take us to our plane. Not a bad deal.
