Diving: Tours & activities in Bali (2)

At some point I realized I was tired of living a life that had become way too comfortable and predictable. I wanted to get away from civilization for a few days, see something completely different and step outside the world we’re all so used to. That’s exactly why I chose this trip. It’s hard to explain what places like this make you feel. When you see people living the way humanity used to live hundreds of years ago, without all the things we now consider normal, you start looking at a lot of things differently. I caught myself thinking that I hadn’t stopped and reflected like this in a very long time. Sometimes you need to go somewhere far enough from the modern world just to remember who you actually are. For me, this trip was exactly that.

Girls, it's just a heartbreak!! Went with a friend for 3 days and still impressed. If you think Komodo is only about lizards, absolutely not! It's unreal aesthetics. One sunrise on Padar is worth it, we got up at 5 am, crawled to the top, but when we saw those three bays... tears just fell from my eyes because of the beauty!!! Special respect to the boat team, they fed us incredibly tasty, always some fruits, care at every step. In the evening we sat on the deck with wine under the stars, a complete reboot.

My friend and I booked this trip mainly because we wanted to see Komodo and whale sharks, and we honestly didn't regret it for a second. Everything was just wow 😍 The whale sharks were definitely the highlight. I was so nervous about getting into the water at first because they're HUGE. But after a couple of minutes, I didn't want to get out anymore. They're so calm and beautiful. The whole route was amazing too. I don't think I've seen so many beautiful places in one trip before. And a special thanks for the organization — we didn't have to think about anything, we could just enjoy ourselves. After the trip, we spent weeks showing everyone our photos and telling them we'd swum next to a fish almost the size of a bus

We’d wanted to see orangutans for a long time. It was one of those things we kept saying “one day we should do this”, but once we started looking into how to get to Kalimantan by ourselves, it honestly looked like a whole mission 😄 Then we found this trip and thought okay… this is probably the way to do it. And honestly the whole experience felt super different from anything we’ve done before. Just being on a boat in the middle of the jungle already feels unreal. Total silence, sometimes you hear monkeys somewhere in the trees and that’s basically it. And then suddenly you see orangutans right there in front of you… not in a zoo, not behind glass, just living their normal life. Very very cool experience. Definitely one of those trips you sit and think about afterwards like damn… the world is actually huge.
