    A big thanks to Jou and his team at joutrekking.com/ for this unforgettable experience. Jou is a local (previously a porter himself) who runs thoughtful and considered tours to Mount Rinjani. His staff go above and beyond in any way possible. Of course, there are many other tour companies that offer Mt Rinjani hikes but BEWARE as some do not have proper training, are not actually local to the area, guides and porters are not always paid fairly and they certainly do not go out of their way to collect rubbish from the trail in the way that Jou Trekking does. This is why we can wholeheartedly recommend joutrekking.com/ - tell them we said hello, please!!

      I want to help you improve your episodes. Great show about Indonesia! I vacationed in Indonesia as a teen with my parents. I was impressed with the people and country. They are very artistic and talented. I get to travel vicariously through you two.
      I want to say something that might improve your shows. The Bhutan episode was my first one to watch. The cinematography was stunning, your access to locations was interesting, and the portrait pictures made it more real. I looked at the portraits and features of the faces. Obviously, some people were not "beautiful" in the traditional sense. For example, the subject was an old Bhutanese woman. I saw the many lines in here face, her oval eyes, and the depiction of her was beautiful. I wondered what about her story and what kind of life is she lived. I firmly believe using portrait pictures in your episodes will make the experiences for the viewers more real.
      I will continue to watch your videos. Keep up the good work and stay extroverted! :) Do you folks like to cook? I am working on a cookbook titled Flavors From The World. I will be wrapping it up in a few months. :)

    I think the guides are the real heroes. Carrying all thst gear. Setting up the tents. Cooking all the meals. Breaking down the camp and hiking the same distances as the tourist.

    • @JitsIntoTheSunset
      @JitsIntoTheSunset  Před rokem +34

      Absolutely!! We couldn’t agree more, Priscilla! Our porters are superhuman… incredibly hard working and physically strong beyond measure. I still can’t get over the fact that they do this trek each week and sometimes more, in FLIP FLOPS 🤯 xx T

    I wanted to give Tania a big hug at the end of the video (and Adam, but Tania looked like she needed it more 😄). Everyone who completed that hike has my respect, it looked like a challenging time. I think we all should occasionally push ourselves mentally and physically, you are often stronger than you think you are.

So happy for you guys you have this experience. Well done and dont forget this quote “After Rinjani, life is better” 😂👍

    • @JitsIntoTheSunset
      @JitsIntoTheSunset  Před rokem +3

      Thank you! I’m glad that this has resonated with you 💛 At the time of the trek, I felt like I had to internalise my deep discomfort but in retrospect, I wished I had been more honest on camera of how I was feeling. That’s why I’m delighted to have found a way to still tell this (important) part of the story since I would hate to disillusion anyone about what to expect from this trek. Rinjani is equally challenging and beautiful ❤ xx Tania

      Hello lovely, Joana!! 💛 Thank you so much for your kind message. You know, the morning after this trek, I remember being so disappointed in myself for not filming the hard parts. The parts where I looked and felt defeated…. and so it’s been such a relief to find a way to tell the full story in how we’ve edited this film because I wouldn’t hate to mislead or disillusion anyone of what they can expect from Mount Rinjani. It is TOUGH but equally breathtaking and rewarding 😍 xx Tania

      I’m so glad you enjoyed it, Lynn!! I was so disappointed in myself afterwards for not letting on how hard I found it and only pressing record for the joyous moments, so I wanted to make sure that the hardship came across in the edit. Last thing I’d want is to misrepresent this trek to anyone that’s interested in doing it. It is beautiful but it is equally hard 😅 And I agree, I’m so proud of Adam - never ceases to amaze me with his talent for storytelling 💛 Thank you again for being here, Lynn! Xx T

Your videos are not only cinematic & beautiful, but always capture emotion and tell a story in a way that the average "travel vlog" doesn't.
    Funny enough, we also just did a volcano hike in Guatemala that was also by far our hardest hike to date!

Ended up hiking 15km to the nearest town, soaking wet, unsure of the direction and barefoot! My feet were bloodied, my limbs ached and i was was so scared but knowing that i was able to do that, really helps me push through challenges now.

    I remember hiking a section of the Pacific Crest Trail in my late teens with a group of 8, we had been out for over a week before we all got very ill with a stomach flu/food poisoning issue. We were so weakened but had to push on after a forced rest of several days and running out of food. A father and son came upon us and fished for us and shared their food so we could go on. I remember dreaming of a man on a horse coming to rescue me, and kept telling myself, on the next rise I will see the horse, I can make it till then, and so on. We were all delirious but we made it back after a week plus and some antibiotics and time in the sweat lodge and the cold lake helped recovery a lot. No satphones back then but if this happened now we would probably have called for a rescue. Watching your hike makes me realize with regret these hiking days are no longer possible and how much that trip would never happen today to anyone, probably not a bad thing.

    Incredible film!! We were in Lombok 2 days ago and have actually been considering doing this trek. Not sure if we are ready to take it on yet but your film is making us think we can do it! Thank you for your transparency and sharing this with us all

    • @JitsIntoTheSunset
      @JitsIntoTheSunset  Před rokem +2

      Yes!!! You can do it!!! 💪 If you’re nervous or hesitant, I think the secret is to book with a small or private group because that will allow you do go at a slower pace without feeling the pressures and therefore you will enjoy it so much more! ❤ For example, for us, we ended up camping by the lake although that wasn’t part of the original plan. That was meant to be a stopover for a swim and then back up to the crater rim… but my legs just couldn’t take it, and hence why Lim readjusted the itinerary for us 🥰 Whatever you decide, I hope you have the best time! ❤ Thank you for watching ✨ xx Tania

    Another fab walk is the Tongariro Alpine Crossing of the volcanos on the North Island in New Zealand. It is 20km in 1 day. You can add in the climb up to Mount Ngauruhoe to the walk which makes it even longer and more challenging. I did it in Winter when everything was covered in snow with crampons. It was AMAZINGLY STUNNING...only 12 people did it on the day I did.. because most don't want the added snow/crampon challenge.. i have heard, in summer there are hundreds walking it daily.

    Well done. Epic effort and beautifully filmed as always. The porters are unbelievable. I'm no hiking expert but gaiters help keep the gravel out of your boots and on descents keeping your trekking poles (preferably two) in front of you will take a lot of weight off your legs. Also I've just had a month in Sumatra and the litter is heartbreaking. Pristine tropical beaches covered in plastic bottles and every ferry I took people just tossed rubbish overboard. There's no awareness of the problem and how it appears to us.
