Dennis Schmelz youtuber Travelled Indonesia and according to his view this country best place to travel for travelers.
According to Dennis SchmelzView:
"I had the great honor to travel to Indonesia for three weeks this summer. Besides the spectacular landscapes in Bali, Komodo and Java, I also wanted to learn more about the culture and the people. Especially Bali, the island of the gods, holds many stories and myths.
During my stay there was Galungan, a Balinese holiday celebrating the victory of dharma (good) over adharma (evil). It marks the beginning of the most important recurring religious ceremonies and the time when the ancestral spirits visit the Earth.
The Barong dance featured battle between Barong and Rangda to represent the eternal battle between good and evil. Barong is the king of the spirits, leader of the hosts of good, and enemy of Rangda, the demon queen and mother of all spirit guarders in the mythological traditions of Bali.
It is an important part of the magic of Bali to understand that everything flows as one here – the divine, humankind and nature – every individual is in one way or another contributing to the overall energy that transmits throughout the island.
Every household offers their reverence and hospitality through offerings and prayer. A so-called ‘penjor’ – a curved bamboo pole decorated with offerings made from coconut and palm leaves and flowers – arch the roads serving as enchanting reminders of its ancient past.
Besides the celebration, I also had the opportunity to shoot with some traditional Balinese dancers. One of the most beautiful dances is Rejang. Dressed in great costumes with headdresses, this dance is traditionally performed by young women at a ceremony in the inner courtyard of the temple. This dance is also one of the holiest sacrificial dances to entertain the visiting gods and spirits.
Another very common dance is the Legong dance. It tells the story of 13th century Java and is a cultural treasure of Bali, known for its physically demanding postures and fast-paced movements which require a significant level of flexibility among its generally young female performers.
Thanks to my friend and fellow photographer Daniel Kordan (check out his workshops in Bali and Java) and Odi Gudang (knows every corner in Bali). Without you I would never have been able to get to know all
Jay Withey, a technician from New York, tried to aid a buddy by driving out into the dangerous snowstorm that slammed Buffalo, New York, but instead found himself trapped. He had no idea that his tragedy would really turn out to be a godsend. On December 23, Withey stepped outside into the hazardous blizzard, but he became mired in the snow. He anxiously knocked on doors in a Cheektowaga area asking $500 in exchange for refuge from the fierce storm but was repeatedly turned away. He was in risk of freezing to death. He would now be acclaimed as a hero because of the horrible turn of events. "If one one those households had allowed me in, I wouldn't have had this opportunity to rescue so many lives," Withey subsequently said. The remarkable tale of Withey, 27, who broke into a school to save himself and others after not receiving assistance that night was told. He couldn't locate any refuge from the cold that night, so he spent the night in his vehicle with two strange...

She is known as "The Carrot." The fish has been avoiding most fishers for about 15 years while swimming in the Bluewater Lakes in Champagne, France. However, British angler Andy Hacket recently pulled her in for some wonderful pictures before letting her go back into the sea. According to the Bluewater Lakes Facebook page, the goldfish, or more particularly a female koi carp, is 20 years old and weighs an incredible 67.4 pounds. The Carrot was introduced to Bluewater Lakes, a carp fishery, according to the company's representative Jason Cowler, who talked with FTW Outdoors, "as something unusual for the fishermen to try to catch." If you can reel her in, she makes a remarkable catch with her vivid orange hue. For his part, Hacket was ecstatic to have caught The Carrot since he had given up hope of ever doing so. "I knew it was a monster fish when it seized my bait and ran off side to side and up and down with it," he told The Daily Mail. After that, it...
