3 hours away from the ferry to timor :)

in one hour i will be taking a motorbike to the harbour in waingapu to get my ticket and hopp on the ferry to kupang. it goes via flores, so the route is waingapu - ende - kupang, and it should take a day and a half :) so i'll be in west timor on sunday!

i might go to the little island called rote just southwest of kupang because it looks so peaceful :) and then i'll start going east to timor leste until i hit dili xx i'm so curious with that part of the world!!

the trip by ferry will be an adventure itself, as they always are :) there is a communal area where entire families and everyone else sits down with all their luggage and also with chicken, goats, cabbages, tabacco and anything else you can think of. that is also where everyone sleeps, on the same ground :) and you have breakfast, lunch and dinner on the same spot. it's quite an event! and i can't wait to board it!
