The island is full of new unexpected things! What's so obvious about the island is the fact that you have to get used to living in the jungle. Haha, JK! But true that living here feels like living in the jungle, in some way. You can't find taxis here, only cars that happen to be "taxis". We tend to call them 'angkot'.
I am living in a shared house with some foreigners who work as English teachers for English First (EF) company. They are Marcus, Wendy, Alvie, Michael and Antonia. I enjoy hanging around them. Anyway, on the second day since I arrived, me, Wendy and Alvie went to the local festival called "Lake Sentani Festival". We had so much fun taking pics with local people which are called the Papuans (obviously!).
The lake is super wide. I even thought it was the sea before being told that it was the lake Sentani. The people here are friendly and even sometimes they give a ride to us. We entered and exited the festival area by hitching a car. Hey, it was 2,5kms from the entrance to the lake where the festival was held.
