Day 99: Gili Air, Indonesia
May 5, 2023 — I moved accommodation today; as you’ll remember, I booked a different hostel for my next two nights in Gili Air since I was originally supposed to climb Mount Rinjani and then decided against it. I woke up late and skipped vinyasa yoga in the morning (it’s not my favourite style). I…

Day 96: Gili Meno, Indonesia
May 2, 2023 — Yesterday, when I arrived in Gili Meno, I booked a snorkelling tour through my hostel! I’d wanted to do this on Gili T, but never did, and I’m actually glad I waited for Gili Meno to go on one. For 150,000IDR (or about $15CAD), I got to explore four snorkel sites…

Day 92: Serangan to Gili Trawangan
April 28, 2023 — I was up at 5:45am to pack the rest of the way and have breakfast at 6:15am. Kadek was so accommodating — I’d booked my ticket to the ferry with her and she’d said that I could have breakfast early, before I had to be picked up for the ferry, since…

Day 91: Serangan, Indonesia
April 27, 2023 — I woke up on my first full day in Indonesia after a solid sleep. When I crashed, I crashed hard, and woke up the next morning ready to go. After months of having to fix my own breakfasts (even though there really was nothing to this most of the time), it…

April 22, 2023 — Our second day on the Great Barrier Reef started at 6:45am as our first dive was at 7:30am. We changed, grabbed towels and gear, and headed up to the sun deck for a briefing. We were still anchored off the Petag Bommie on Malln Reef but the relative calm of the…

Day 85: The Great Barrier Reef
April 21, 2023 — I was in a dead sleep when, at approximately seven a.m., I was woken up by one of the security officers and another person who were looking for someone because they were about to miss a tour that they were booked on. Initially, the name they were calling sounded like a…

Day 84: Cairns, Australia
April 20, 2023 — We started the next morning even brighter and earlier than the day before, waking at 5:45am for breakfast at 6:00am, in order for us to be on the bus at 7:00am. We did quite a bit of driving the morning, but that didn’t mean that we didn’t make several awesome stops…

Day 83: Cairns, Australia
April 19, 2023 — For the first time in several days, I woke up at a very decent hour — I would go so far as to say early, in fact — as I was going on Uncle Brian’s two-day Best of Both Worlds tour, which combines their Waterfalls tour with their day trip to…
