How about a trip to Indonesia North Kalimantan

Indonesia North Kalimantan Jan

SummaryA Brief Summary

There are good things and bad things about almost every location on earth and North Kalimantan is no exception. The pros of this sparsely populated region of Borneo are some spectacular beaches on the east coast, azure coloured seas, truly wild and remote inland forest areas, largely untouched and unseen by all but a tiny number of people, some fabulous, if quite tricky to get to, diving sites and of course, the big orange apes live here in abundance.. orangutans!
On the less favourable side, this region is one of Indonesia’s primary wood harvesting regions and as such huge swathes of land have been munched and chewed away by voracious logging machinery over the years and the scars which have been left will take many, many years to heal. That being said, none of this is readily visible to visitors, although does leave a slightly bitter taste in the mouth knowing this
