Gili Islands (Gili Trawangan)

About 3 weeks ago, Johannes, Holger, Martin, Robert, Nina and myself decided to go to the Gili Islands (near Lombok) and visit our “fellow student” ;-) Gili-Chris who’s already been on the island for a while. I don’t wanna write too much about the trip, you should rather have a look on the pictures. All we did was relaxing…. We spent all day at the beach: reading, swimming or snorkelling (which I really enjoyed!!!!). And we deserved it! University is stressful sometimes and if it’s not, it’s boring. Actually, it’s always kind of boring.

Anyway, it took us a whole day to get to the island (motorbike, ferry, bus, boat), but it was definitely worth it. The islands (Gili Air, Gili Meno and Gili Trawangan where we stayed at) are so small that there is no police. Of course everybody is taking advantage of it, just look at the Magic Mushroom picture. J It was a fun trip although one of us got sick on the last day. We had pizza in a restaurant next to the Irish Pub on the island on our last evening. Well, what can I say: one of us almost didn’t make it back home (nope, it wasn’t me – thank God!!). Little “food poisoning”. Funny that I told Judith the story about our sick man including a detailed description about where the restaurant was – did she learn anything from my story??? No, she forgot and took her boyfriend to the exact same place the next weekend. Guess who ended up in the toilet and having fever afterwards???

Anyway, have fun with the pictures:
