Summer in Lombok, Indonesia

My first visit to Lombok in Indonesia and surprisingly I like it. Things over there are not relatively very cheap but it's affordable and food wise is alright. If there's a chance, I will visit other places in Indonesia too! 

I went to Lombok during May and we visit two places. Lombok city itself and one island called Gili Trawangan. Since there are three islands, why do we chose Gili Trawangan instead? Through researches, Gili Trawangan is the largest island among the gilis, hence it's more happening compared to the two. However, expenses over Gili Trawangan will be slightly higher because there's a lot of tourists, especially westerns.

These gilis are famous for scuba diving without a diving license. It allows us to experience diving for one time. But the pricing is not cheap though.

This is how the island map looks like.



The first night we arrived in Lombok was late, hence we only went to Gili Trawangan the next day and stayed there for four days three nights.

In Lombok, we stayed at Kebun Villas & Resort. Their room is spacious but there's nothing much can do during night time. This place mainly for travelers to relax during their trip.
