The city boy had some issues here, as even if I tought I was on my own.. well let's say I was indeed sharing with various elements of the local fauna. Now that I've been here a few days I realise I was being a bit fussy (I've changed accomodation meawhile though), and when opening a shower curtains some spider or small insect come up I consider myself lucky (big guys coming out from the Homestay shower) and think: the more the marrier! Pics are my room in the Homestay and the view from my ruma (veranda).

Arrival in Lombok
Well first of all as there were no seats available i managed to book this flight in business class for the same price. Being the only one in biz class I was very well looked after, with hostesses rifilling my wine glasses Irish-style (that is everytime the level was just about half the glass) from before take off to landing. This meant that I had constantly a Mr. Bean face on, and arrived in Lombok in spectacular mood.
After the first confusion with the currency (thought i paid the taxi 28 euros for 20 mins ride, while actually it was 2.89 euro!) and the first impression of the island (I used to tell my mother thaat I was going in the middle of a jungle to scare her a bit, but I wasn't too far) I checked in this B'n'B, or Homestay as they called them here.
