Solo Backpacking trip to Indonesia - Bali, Gili Islands, Lombok
When I decided to start traveling the world, my first thought was about solo backpacking in Indonesia. It was almost an impromptu plan. I booked my return flights from Pune to Bali just 6 days before my trip. My project at IBM was keeping me super busy with tough routines. I only had 10 days of leave, and I wanted to make the most of it in Indonesia. My top priorities were getting certified as an Open Water Scuba Diver and going on a trek to an active volcano. I did some research on these and came up with the best plan I could. I chose Lombok for 3 days of trekking to Mount Rinjani and the Gili Islands for 4 days of diving. I had 3 more days left, so I decided to spend them in Bali. I flew out of Pune 2 days before I started my trip to the Gili Islands and the last day before I left.
I didn’t book anything and just had a plan in my mind. I had just enough time to collect dollars at a good exchange rate from my bank. The process was quick and easy. I even worked from the airports on my layovers in Chennai and Kuala Lumpur.
