Twiggy Baker In untouched Indo

This article is courtesy of Sufline (check out the entire log)  Twiggy and camerawoman aka twiggys girlfriend. Fellow saffa blaises a trail into rural  Indo. Reading this sent me quickly down memory lane from a trip me and my brother took to a very similar selection of spots around Sumatra (i stand corrected but I think the biggest of the Indonesian archipeligo). Like Twiggy, I am much more inclined to go looking for some uncrowded gems than to travel all that way to sit in the line up with 50 other expat dudes. Our trip took two days of dangerous 12hr taxi rides sitting on the back of motorcycles and even more treacherous Ferry rides, Twiggies boat sounds like a luxury to what we took and I am not entirely sure how it managed to stay afloat.  It was all worth it when we got a month of perfect barrell spitting right hander. It was a trip never to forget! I am not going to say trip of a life time because there are plenty more to come!
