• Also on Flores continued what we had already experienced on other Indonesian islands: the people are incredibly friendly and when driving across the country you are - especially in a rather unusual and therefore conspicuous car - the whole day busy waving and greeting people.⠀ We are often surprised from which places they spot us, no matter if they are standing right on the street, or are working on the field. It's amazing how quick they react to our sighting and take a second to greet us. ⠀ __________________________________⠀ ⠀ 🗺️ #TravelDiary⠀ 📅 Day 516 of our trip around the world⠀ 📆 Date: 2019-10-07⠀ 🌍 Country: #Indonesia 🇮🇩⠀ 📌 Place: #Flores⠀ 📷 Cam: #NikonZ6⠀ 🔎 Lense: #NikkorZ2470f4⠀ 🔖 #ALifeLessOrdinary⠀ __________________________________⠀ ⠀ #Farmers #FloresIndonesia #FloresIsland #ExploreFlores #FloresTrip #visitflores #WonderfulIndonesia #PesonaIndonesia #exploreindonesia #Indonesia_photography #discoverindonesia #indonesiaparadise #indonesiatrip #NatGeoIndonesia #triparoundtheworld #worldtrip #traveltheplanetoverland #yukmulaimotret #nikonindonesia

  • Oh yes, recently we had been watching a lot of sunrises ... ⠀ After our visit at the Kelimutu National Park, we camped again at around 1200 meter above sea level and learned from passing locals that unintentionally we had chosen a spot which offers great views of the rising sun each morning. So, we couldn't help than waking up early and letting us again mesmerize by the colors of the #sunrise. ⠀ __________________________________⠀ ⠀ 🗺️ #TravelDiary⠀ 📅 Day 512 of our trip around the world⠀ 📆 Date: 2019-10-03⠀ 🌍 Country: #Indonesia 🇮🇩⠀ 📌 Place: #Kelimutu⠀ 📷 Cam: #NikonZ6⠀ 🔎 Lense: #NikkorZ2470f4⠀ 🔖 #ALifeLessOrdinary⠀ __________________________________⠀ ⠀ #sunriseview #epicsunrise #Flores #FloresIsland #FloresTrip #exploreindonesia #indonesiatrip #triparoundtheworld #Overlander #overlanding #OverlandLife #traveltheplanetoverland #id4wd #Mercedes #GClass #GWagon #StrongerThanTime #HomeIsWhereYouParkIt #Campspot #HomeOnWheels #ExpeditionVehicle #GLife #yukmulaimotret @exploreindonesia @provenoverland @overlandnation @forgeoverland @overlandjournal

  • The three crater lakes that nestle inside the Kelimutu #volcano are of haunting beauty. For hours, we marveled at the otherworldly, tricolored lakes. ⠀ ⠀ Scientific explanations aside, there are many myths about the origin of Kelimutu and its chameleonic color scheme. Mount Kelimutu was, and still is sacred to local people, who consider it as a resting place for the departed souls. They believe that those who died will sit by the lakes based on their merits in life. The twin lakes of Tiwu Nuwa Muri Koofai, where the spirits of the Young go, and Tiwu Ata Polo, where the bewitched and bad spirits rest, are separated by a steep, narrow wall. The latter had shifted its color in the past between red, black and, now, sky blue. About 1.5 km away, the usually dark colored Tiwu Ata Mbupu is located. For the locals, this is the resting place for old people’s spirits. ⠀ Over the years, the crater lakes have often shifted its colors. There’s no certain pattern of when and into what color the lakes will change. Some local explanation suggests that the changing colors are caused by the neglected ancestral souls. ⠀ __________________________________⠀ ⠀ 🗺️ #TravelDiary⠀ 📅 Day 511 of our trip around the world⠀ 📆 Date: 2019-10-02⠀ 🌍 Country: #Indonesia 🇮🇩⠀ 📌 Place: #Kelimutu⠀ 📷 Cam: #DJIMavicAir⠀ 🔖 #ALifeLessOrdinary⠀ __________________________________⠀ ⠀ #mavicair #gameofdrones #dronepals #dronestagram #dronepic #droneshot #aerialshot #fromwhereidrone #birdseyeview #kelimutunationalpark #crater #craterlake #volcanolake #Flores #FloresIsland #ExploreFlores #FloresTrip #WonderfulIndonesia #PesonaIndonesia #exploreindonesia #indonesiaparadise #indonesiatrip #NatGeoIndonesia #triparoundtheworld @indtravel @pesonaid_travel @folkindonesia @exploreindonesia @discoverindonesia

  • Shortly after the sun had risen, the masses of tourists left Kelimutu National Park and the moonscape around the #volcano was totally deserted. ⠀ ⠀ We relished this ethereal atmosphere and stayed for several hours, roaming around to see the colorful lakes from different angles. Each of the three crater lakes sparkled with a different color, so dense, that we almost had the feeling they are filled with paint instead of water. ⠀ __________________________________⠀ ⠀ 🗺️ #TravelDiary⠀ 📅 Day 511 of our trip around the world⠀ 📆 Date: 2019-10-02⠀ 🌍 Country: #Indonesia 🇮🇩⠀ 📌 Place: #Kelimutu⠀ 📷 Cam: #NikonZ6⠀ 🔎 Lense: #NikkorZ2470f4⠀ 🔖 #ALifeLessOrdinary⠀ __________________________________⠀ ⠀ #roamingaround #kelimutunationalpark #crater #craterlake #volcanolake #Flores #FloresIndonesia #FloresIsland #ExploreFlores #FloresTrip #WonderfulIndonesia #PesonaIndonesia #exploreindonesia #indonesiaparadise #indonesiatrip #NatGeoIndonesia #triparoundtheworld #AdventureLife #TravellersLife #neverstopexploring #placestovisit #yukmulaimotret #meinglobetrottermoment @globetrottermagazin @indtravel @folkindonesia @exploreindonesia @discoverindonesia

  • No better reason for getting out of bed before dawn than hiking up a #volcano to watch the sun rising behind the rim of the #crater.⠀ ⠀ We had camped close to the Kelimutu National Park which made it easier to reach the summit in time for the #sunrise. Nevertheless, the alarm rang at 3:30 am, outside it was still pitchblack and our eyes were sleepy. But we didn't mind, because for a long time, we had been looking forward to visiting the 1600 meter high Kelimutu volcano which contains three crater lakes of varying colors. In the past, their colors have been shifting between turquoise, blue, green, black and even red. It is assumed that the colors change due to a chemical reaction resulting from the minerals in the water. ⠀ ⠀ For us, the sunrise at Kelimutu was certainly a sight to behold. But, don't think we were the only ones getting up early ... to our taste, the summit was a bit too crowded with visitors which made it difficult to entirely enjoy it. ⠀ __________________________________⠀ ⠀ 🗺️ #TravelDiary⠀ 📅 Day 511 of our trip around the world⠀ 📆 Date: 2019-10-02⠀ 🌍 Country: #Indonesia 🇮🇩⠀ 📌 Place: #Kelimutu⠀ 📷 Cam: #NikonZ6⠀ 🔎 Lense: #NikkorZ2470f4⠀ 🔖 #ALifeLessOrdinary⠀ __________________________________⠀ ⠀ #kelimutunationalpark #sunriseview #sunriseoftheday #epicsunrise #Flores #FloresIndonesia #FloresIsland #ExploreFlores #FloresTrip #WonderfulIndonesia #PesonaIndonesia #exploreindonesia #indonesiaparadise #indonesiatrip #NatGeoIndonesia #triparoundtheworld #AdventureLife #TravellersLife #WorldTrip #placestovisit #yukmulaimotret @indtravel @pesonaid_travel @folkindonesia @exploreindonesia @discoverindonesia
