In late July I hitched a ride from Darwin to Indonesia on a sailboat called Kay-Tee with captain Joe and my German friend Anja.
Four days was the quoted amount of time it should take us to get to Indonesia. 11 days later we arrived in Kupang with a broken motor eager to set our sea legs on land! To answer some questions about how those 11 days went I have included a snipit from my journal...
"Day 8- Small amount of wind. Started catching jellyfish in buckets for entertainment. observed glowing organisms in water. Good celestial experience.
Day 9- 200 meters deep. No Wind, No Motor! Went Swimming!! Was good and freaky! Fantasized about eating amazing food. No Wind. Calm and Smooth as my goddess belly. 140 miles to Kupang.
Day 10..... No Wind!!!!!"
This was an awesome experience, never to be forgotten. Indonesia blew my mind. One month seemed like a whole life time and now only one month after returning to australia it seems like a faded dream. one day i will return...
