@weftyarn LOL don't get fooled with the IG post of them wearing the heavy stuffs! But if you are indoor, like the mall, shorts or berms will be a bit too cold. I always have friends from overseas saying our indoor air-conditions is set too low!!!!
yeah the photography part will be nice for you, check out the national gallery

@T4920 Oh wow, what a stunner!!
We actually thought about Flores and Komodo but I guess we have to save them for the next time. There’s just so many islands and beautiful places I can’t wrap my head around it.
We’ll spend some time on Sumatra though. Lake Toba and Gunung Leuser NP is the plan. Let’s see how it goes

Morgan and I love backpacking. We’ve heard of the rifugio huttes of the Dolomites and had to include them in our honeymoon trip of Italy. They most certainly did not disappoint.
Now, I understand that there are much more technical fabrics to hike in. Fabrics that are lighter, more water resistant, quick drying, and all around better for long hikes. Sure I knew my new wife would tease me the whole four days of our hiking trip. I didn’t wear my SBGs for the style. I didn’t wear them for the practicality. I didn’t wear them out of ignorance (or did I? ) So why in the hell did I wear these black, 21oz denim beasts for four days, 7,000 ft of elevation gain, through snow, sun, rain, and odd looks from other hikers…
I did it for the fades!

Terima Kasih @endo or Matur Nuwun as they say here in Java.
I can absolutely understand why it’s your favorite country. The people are so overwhelmingly nice here. Add stunning nature, inspiring culture (and the food) and it’s like a dream come true.
Only the humid temperatures took me some days to get used to haha.
@Mizmazzle Oh man, that looks like a great place to hike. Enjoy the nature! have to add this to our „hike list“
Greets from Yogyakarta Airport. Off to Medan to explore Sumatra Jungles.

@Mizmazzle - for the last 10 yrs i'm hiking in denim, for the sole reason that i destroyed 2 pairs of technical hiking pants from patagonia and in less than a year. i got recommendations to go for fjallraven but denim is good enough for me. it does dry a bit longer but it doesn't tear on any occasion, and the zippers dont fall apart. i do use technical clothing for cycling but for hiking and trekking i go with denim and nike dri fit shirts. also i dropped the boots for approach shoes, but that's another story. ATM hiking in dolomites, no sun, therefore no spectacular photos but i'll do my best here

@prpx Not too shabby of a view to be honest Habe fun!!
I also hiked in denim for the past years but i sometimes don’t like how sweaty that can get. I think I found my dream outdoor pants in the 734 Rip Stop Cargos Haven’t tried them in colder weather but they were phenomenal in Indonesia.
