In this episode, I take you deep into the heart of Sumatra, starting from the jungle village of Bukit Lawang a gateway to the vast Gunung Leuser National Park, one of Southeast Asia’s last true wildernesses. Trekking through dense rainforest, I encountered wild orangutans, swinging gibbons, and even bioluminescent millipedes lighting up the jungle floor at night. I camped on the edge of a jungle river, surrounded by the sounds of the wild, and spent time in the village connecting with locals sharing laughter, music, and late night jam sessions with guitars and dancing.
This is a story of raw nature, wildlife encounters, and the rich human spirit found deep in the Sumatran jungle.
