July 2008 - A nice stretch of sandy white beach, just a few hundred meters long. The small road then turns inland over a few hills before ending up at the little harbour of Sadeng, in the remote southeastern corner of Yogyakarta province, at some two and a half hours drive from the city of Yogyakarta. Freshly caught fish is on sale here before the sun rises above the horison, good to buy here and eat a few beaches towards the west when the first rays of sun come over the hills.

Pictures from the daily life in Indonesia. Sometimes a serious topic, sometimes a funny picture received from one of the visitors. Also personally selected pictures can be found here. Since life is often very serious, this photobook is intended to make you smile.... sometimes.

June 2008 - The small terminal train station of the town of Purworejo, one hours drive to the west from the city of Yogyakarta, is in the middle of the town. It is the quiet environment - the only exception is the still fairly quiet main road passing directly in front of it - as well as the colonial design which make it seems you are going back in time some hundred years. Like time has stood still here at the very end of the railroad track where switches are moved by hand, the ticket booth only opens when a train is about to leave and that is only when there is a train, just a few times a week!

May 2008 - A bus terminal in Indonesia works slightly different than in most other countries. People working for the bus companies at the bus terminals will help you in a friendly way, but not without some pressure to take their bus, especially when you told them where you wanted to go. Every single passenger is fought over with some yelling, pushing and pulling. Your luggage can even be pulled out of your hands if you are not completely alert. Everything for the customer, but most of the time it does cross some lines indeed. Here are 34 pictures as 'evidence'.

April 2008 - Harvesting season is on it's way in Indonesia and for those who want to have a closer look there are several ways to do this. You can dive into some rice fields yourself, it should be fun but will maybe less be appreciated by the farmer. In Yogyakarta daytrips are organized so people who are interested can harvest themselves at ease while they are also able to learn something about the work of the average farmer here.

April 2008 - Located near the main road from Semarang to Yogyakarta, just outside the village of Ambarawa is the old Dutch fortress 'Willem II'. However since Indonesian independence it has become a military complex and prison, it has a past of serving as a fortress during the Dutch coloial time and a prison during the Japanese occupation and revolution afterwards. Nowadays the fortress can be visited, but you are not allowed to make any pictures because it's a military object.

January 2008 - Making coffee requires craftsmanship. Craftsmanship that has been taken over by machines that process modern day coffee from raw beans to packed bags of coffee. There are exceptions however and one of them you can find in Bandung. Behind the central post office in the old Chinese quarter is 'Koffiefabriek Aroma'. This is the place where they still make coffee in the traditional way like it used to be made in the 1930's. More information about Paberik Kopi Aroma can be found here.

2 February 2008 - When the regional government has the idea to push through with plans they made without informing the residents about it, that is at least something to be bothered about. The situation changed however when they arrive with bulldozers and other heavy equipment to flatten an entire neighorhood. That is exactly what happened at the beach of Parangtritis in the province of Yogyakarta.

26 October 2007 - After almost one and a half year continuous mud from the Lapindo Brantas drilling site near Gempol, just south of the town of Sidoarjo in the province of East Java, tens of thousands were forced to move, hundreds of hectare of village and estates are covered in mud and there is still no end in sight. Every single day some 150,000 cubic meter of hot toxic mud is exhausted by te mud volcano. Ever since it started, contractors have tried to build as many dams as possible and a part of the hot mud is directly diverged to the Brantas river, but that is not a permanent sollution at all. In a series of more than seventy pictures a look at the current situation around the volcano that is in continuous eruption for over a year now. 76 new pictures added!

25 October 2007 - As scientists announce that the Mount Kelud volcano in eastern Java is about to erupt, it was time to bring that volcano a visit for the first time. However I had passed it many times by travel, I never took the time to take a closer look at it. For now, no eruption pictures here however.
