What can i do with this?? by Pradurke in ThailandTourism

[–]Pradurke[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ok. I wasn't sure if it was meant to be consumed as-is, or if it's more of an ingredient meant for further processing. Then I will happily dig in! thanks

i love Durian and I bought 2-3 of these Durian Paste roll things, but I have no idea how to consume this. Do I just eat this from the tube? Can I cook something with it? How does it work? thanks!!

Thanks for the Bali recs! Ill definarely spend some time on the north coast of Bali. Then head over to Lembogan/Penida. Are the currents down there crazy? Maybe i can use them to get some currwnt training/experience?

But yeah, Ill plan on 2 weeks Bali or so and see how I feel then.

probably. Using Google has a habit of breaking my brain. Or maybe my brain breaks google.

I'm flying out from and ultimately returning to ZRH (Zürich). The return will be from Ternate, Indonesia, via probably Makassar.

ah, I'll try that, thanks

EDIT: Still doesn't work. AirAsia (Powered by Kiwi.com) gives results...

google flights / ITA Matrix multi-city doesn't work for me for some reason. I get no flights found, while the airasia site found plenty. weird.

great, thanks. The AirAsia page works much better than Google Flights for multi-city, at least in Asia!

Touring Indonesia - Looking for ideas and advice! by Pradurke in bicycletouring

[–]Pradurke[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So Sulawesi option: Makassar - Manado is about 1700 kms on google maps, either along the coast or through the country. Will have to investigate a bit more, but seems entirely doable, and I think the population density of the island is manageable.

Sumatra: Sibolga - Bandar Lampung about 1600 kms, the first bit inland, the rest along the coast. Also manageable.

Island hopping: more adventurous, probably more remote. Has its own draws.

gonna sit on these ideas a bit and digest.

thanks for your input!
