My Trip to Indonesia by Kyra Schroder https://padlet.com/22kyra_schroder/obrp2liimnys My fact loaded travel journal en-us 2017-03-17 16:06:08 UTC 2026-02-07 11:10:58 UTC hello@padlet.com March 20, 2017, I am going to Indonesia. Before leaving, I'm going to pack: my phone, a charger, bug-spray, a toothbrush, a water filter, poisonous plant book, backpack, Indonesian currency (rupees), fishing pole, and some other essentials. I will fly over 9,000 miles and it will take about 18 hours to get there. Indonesia has a very hot climate, due to it being right on the equator. People there wear colorful skirts and blouses to keep cool. I’m excited to see the Uluwatu temple. My 1,000 American dollars are worth 6,560,000 rupees, which is quite a lot of money. I can't wait to explore the jungles and forests in Borneo. I feel a bit sad though, because millions of acres of forests are cut down every year. Indonesia has a lot of mixed living styles, (rural, and big city) so I hope to see both. 22kyra_schroder https://padlet.com/22kyra_schroder/obrp2liimnys/wish/160838876 2017-03-17 16:12:03 UTC https://padlet.com/22kyra_schroder/obrp2liimnys/wish/160838876 My map 22kyra_schroder https://padlet.com/22kyra_schroder/obrp2liimnys/wish/160842335 (click on it) Places I will go in Indonesia]]> 2017-03-17 16:25:38 UTC https://padlet.com/22kyra_schroder/obrp2liimnys/wish/160842335 Uluwatu Temple 22kyra_schroder https://padlet.com/22kyra_schroder/obrp2liimnys/wish/161233749 2017-03-20 16:05:44 UTC https://padlet.com/22kyra_schroder/obrp2liimnys/wish/161233749 I will be traveling to: Jakarta,Borneo, Java, and the Uluwatu Temple. I’m really excited because the Uluwatu temple is a place where I can empty my mind. Borneo will be really fun because I love nature and all the excotic plants. 22kyra_schroder https://padlet.com/22kyra_schroder/obrp2liimnys/wish/161234361 2017-03-20 16:07:15 UTC https://padlet.com/22kyra_schroder/obrp2liimnys/wish/161234361 Indonesian Fried rice 22kyra_schroder https://padlet.com/22kyra_schroder/obrp2liimnys/wish/161237125 This website gives instructions, ingredients, and pictures. ]]> 2017-03-20 16:13:51 UTC https://padlet.com/22kyra_schroder/obrp2liimnys/wish/161237125 Jakarta, March 23, 2017, Here in Indonesia, they eat: rice, veggies, fish, and other meats, usually topped with hot spices. While here, I will only eat the rice and veggies because I don't trust the meat, and I’m a vegetarian. I got this recipe from a local: 22kyra_schroder https://padlet.com/22kyra_schroder/obrp2liimnys/wish/161237953 2017-03-20 16:15:50 UTC https://padlet.com/22kyra_schroder/obrp2liimnys/wish/161237953 March 21, 2017, Java, I’ve just got to the island Java. There are volcanoes everywhere, about a total of seventy-six are active. Indonesia is home to more volcanoes than any other country. In Java , I’m going to a city called Jakarta. Jakarta is the capital of Indonesia, and one of the island's busiest places. The absolute location is 6.17 degrees N, and 106.8 degrees E, right near the equator. It is extremely humid, and I am glad I brought proper attire. I hear jumbled talking as people crowd the streets, with not many cars, but shuttle buses. I decided to take a trip to China Town. I found one of those little metal cats the move their arm up and down. Beings American money is worth so much here, I’m basically rich, and buy a ton of souvenirs. 22kyra_schroder https://padlet.com/22kyra_schroder/obrp2liimnys/wish/161238800 2017-03-20 16:17:49 UTC https://padlet.com/22kyra_schroder/obrp2liimnys/wish/161238800 Bali, March 22, 2017 I walked alone on the beach with nothing but the sound of crashing waves. I sat down for a while in the warm sand. A few hours later I decided to take a trip to the Uluwatu temple. It took a while to get there, but when I saw the grassy chunk of plateau, I got really excited. The Uluwatu temple was thought to be built in the eleventh century. I looked at it for a while until a family of friendly Balinese people came over. They seemed to know a lot of facts, and they spoke English so I listened. They taught me some new words. What is your name, translates to ‘Siapa namamu’. Permisi means ‘excuse me’ , and how are you today is said ‘ Apa kabarnya. I had a a great time and was glad to have experience. 22kyra_schroder https://padlet.com/22kyra_schroder/obrp2liimnys/wish/161239013 2017-03-20 16:18:23 UTC https://padlet.com/22kyra_schroder/obrp2liimnys/wish/161239013 Borneo, March 24, 2017, I have just traveled to Borneo, a very tropical island. Before taking the tour, I sprayed enough bug spray for the whole world. Mosquitoes are a huge problem. I feel a bit bad just casually touring it because thousands of animals live peacefully. I don't like to disturb them. Just because of loggers, 1,438 species (including plants) are endangered, and that's just from the Borneo. I get onto a white cart that's attached to a zip line cord. It takes me, and my group up high into the trees. I saw some leaf-cutter ants, plenty of monkeys, banana trees, the oil palm tree, the sago palm, toucans, and many more wonderful forms of life. Borneo is one of the two only places where rhinos, orangutans, and elephants live together. After being there and exploring all the layers of the rain forest, the tour came to an end. 22kyra_schroder https://padlet.com/22kyra_schroder/obrp2liimnys/wish/161239425 2017-03-20 16:19:22 UTC https://padlet.com/22kyra_schroder/obrp2liimnys/wish/161239425 Going home, March 25, 2017, I am sad to have to leave, but I'm slightly glad to get home. Over the week I learned that people here really enjoy surfing, fishing, and being at the beach. It's just a normal thing for them. The Balinese people told me most people like to go caving and do outdoor things. I like how people wear colorful clothes, because each one is unique. I also learned that Indonesia has more Muslim people than any other place. With over 82% of the population, having that religion.I am glad I got to experience this trip and hope to go back soon. 22kyra_schroder https://padlet.com/22kyra_schroder/obrp2liimnys/wish/161239725 2017-03-20 16:20:03 UTC https://padlet.com/22kyra_schroder/obrp2liimnys/wish/161239725 Borneo Jungle 22kyra_schroder https://padlet.com/22kyra_schroder/obrp2liimnys/wish/161558184 2017-03-21 16:03:33 UTC https://padlet.com/22kyra_schroder/obrp2liimnys/wish/161558184 Jakarta 22kyra_schroder https://padlet.com/22kyra_schroder/obrp2liimnys/wish/161558841 2017-03-21 16:05:27 UTC https://padlet.com/22kyra_schroder/obrp2liimnys/wish/161558841 bali 22kyra_schroder https://padlet.com/22kyra_schroder/obrp2liimnys/wish/161570079 2017-03-21 16:29:28 UTC https://padlet.com/22kyra_schroder/obrp2liimnys/wish/161570079 Citations: 22kyra_schroder https://padlet.com/22kyra_schroder/obrp2liimnys/wish/161869183 "Indonesia."
