We began our day three with a quick shopping at a local batik shop. To be honest, I was confused whether it’s a Thai batik or Indonesian batik since the wrapping bore Indonesian language. Anyhow, if you are looking for a souvenir to bring home, batik is a sarong you can give to your family […]

Continuation from Koh Adang – Day 1 We skipped sunrise throughout this trip. Our sole purpose was to give comfort to ourselves; screw sunrises and sunsets. We chose to sleep in our little camp and only body clock would wake us up. Jaja woke up earlier than me. She zipped down the tent door and […]
