Indonesia 🇮🇩 Where to Stay for Bromo and Ijen: Rim, Malang, Licin or Banyuwangi Sleep on or just below the Bromo rim for the sunrise, in Licin for Ijen, and put a rest night between the two: the seven-hour drive and two 2 am starts are what break people, not the volcanoes.
Indonesia 🇮🇩 Where to Stay in Bali and Gili Air: Ubud, Amed and the Coast Bali works best as two or three bases, not one: an inland base around Ubud for the day-trips, then a coast that matches your trip, which for families means Amed or a hop across to Gili Air.
China Where to Stay in Yunnan: Kunming to Shangri-La, Stop by Stop Yunnan is a route, not a base: sleep in the terrace villages, inside the old towns and on the gorge trail itself, and gain altitude one stop at a time.
South East Asia 🍜 Where to Stay in Bohol, Siquijor & South Cebu: An Island-Hop Guide Treat it as a one-way line, not three holidays: three nights on Bohol, three or four on Siquijor's west coast, then two or three in south Cebu before flying out of Mactan. Sleep where the next boat leaves from.
