Amélie Gagné's video: The longest time spent in a bus by any human

Follow us on our Javanese adventure! We crossed Java East to West starting from Jakarta to Banyuwangi. We didn’t enjoy West Java. The cities were crowded, polluted and lacking any redeeming features. But if a destination is disappointing in itself, imagine how much worse you feel about it after trekking fifteen hours on the bus to get there. Swish that a little through in your mind, now repeat three times. We found ourselves wishing we’d skipped straight to Yogyakarta - but if you want to give the west a try, do yourself a favour and follow our example from that point onward: take the bloody train. East Java, however, was such a whirlwind of out-of-this-world sights and experiences that I wondered at times if I wasn't having post-traumatic hallucinations from the bus commute. The feeling could have also been caused by the fact that we slept 8 hours in the course of a 72 hour period. But to successively witness three sublime sunrises, one day at Borobudur temple, the next day overlooking the smoking caldera of mount Bromo and the last day looking into the neon turquoise acid lake of Kawah Ijen after having descended right into its flaming sulphur crater with the now famous miners at 1am, I felt privileged and exhilarated like never before. Java has redeemed itself big time with its other-worldly, volatile and epic landscape. - More from us here: http://mostlyamelie.com Follow what we're up to: https://www.facebook.com/mostlyamelie http://instagram.com/mostlyamelie https://twitter.com/mostlyamelie http://www.pinterest.com/mostlyamelie/ Subscribe! http://www.youtube.com/subscription_center?add_user=mostlyamelie Music: Full Set by Dengue Fever http://freemusicarchive.org/music/Dengue_Fever/Live_at_WFMU_on_Terre_Ts_Show_on_7162008/FullSet Cute by Bensound http://www.bensound.com/royalty-free-music/track/cute Alchemy by Willow Beats http://willowbeats.bandcamp.com/track/alchemy
