The ocean, the isle, and the vessel evoke memories of the simple island folk I encountered. Traveling by rowboat across the water to dine on freshly caught fish from the sea, and feeling the unassuming comfort of sleeping on a wooden floor, even amid a downpour.
Indonesia is a nation composed of multiple islands, where one can encounter humble individuals on the isles while witnessing those who yearn for liberation amid the intricate metropolis of industrialization. The tropical climate, with its alternating torrents of rain and gentle, swelling waves, is an enduring memory of this land.
