In January 2017 I finally fulfilled my other dream. I went to Sumatra to the National Park named Gunung Leuser to see The Rain Forest.
Well, to see... I got blind almost straight after my arrival and saw nothing for 2 days!
Anyway, I survived with a help of the other volunteers in the base camp. They led me... They fed me... Btw. Thanks, mates! But I got to the rainforest at last. To be ill for the most of the time. Yeah! My legs got swollen and heavy that I could barely walk, my whole body was covered with itchy rush which only disappeared two weeks later in Pulau Banyak. (That is the second part of my short adventure in Sumatra.
I even didn´t get to see any big animals like orangutans, elephants or tigers!
And you know what?
I do NOT regret any minute I spent there!
In co-operation with Green Life
Thanks a lot! You do a great job down there! Keep it goin!

Sumatra Kids RESCUED ME from Bukit Lawang River! ????????
I left the big city of Medan to travel to the more peaceful and serene Bukit Lawang. A jungle village of Sumatra, located in the Gunung Leuser National Park, that's famous for it's wild orangutans and rivers.
I took the cheap public bus which leaves from outside Mawar Bakery on the street called Pinang Baris. There's a common scam there where touts will try to convince you to pay for your ticket up front at an extortionate rate. I'd read about this before hand and sure enough it happened to me while I was sitting on the bus waiting for it to leave. Unfortunately I didn't get that on camera. The correct fare is only 30,000 and it paid AFTER reaching your destination.
The food in the Mawar Bakery is excellent and very good value, so it's worth stocking up there before getting on the bus.
At Bukit Lawang Bus Station there were many touts. They are just trying to help you by sell orangutan trekking tours. I just told them all no as I would prefer to book a trusted guide through my hotel. They were very persistent and sticky though.
In Bukit Lawang village, which is only 1.3 km away on a flat road, so is easily walkable, I checked in to my hotel: Wisma Leuser Sibayak. It's one of the more costly hotels in the area but still very cheap. I took one of their best rooms at 400,000 IDR but it seemed like other than size there wasn't much difference between that and the cheaper rooms, starting at 200,000 IDR.
I started the stay with a light meal in the hotel restaurant. Gado Gado is a local Indonesian meal of boiled vegetables and peanut sauce. The healthiest food I'd eaten in a while.
My main activity of the day was tubing and swimming in the river. It didn't start off too well and I had to rely on the locals kids to rescue me.
My first (half) day concluded with a delicious goat barbecue beside the river, hosted by the hotel owner Bob.

Eine Nacht im Dschungel - Orang Utans hautnah - Tubing in Bukit Lawang - Weltreise | VLOG #120
Hier nun Teil 2 unserer Orang Utan Trekking Tour von Bukit Lawang aus, in welchem ihr u.a. unsere Nacht im Dschungel seht, Orang Utans hautnah, unser Camp, wie man sich in einem Camp im Dschungel wäscht, viele Tiere und natürlich auch weitere Action in Form von Tubing, vom Camp im Dschungel, zurück zur Thomas Retreat Unterkunft in Bukit Lawang, über den wilden Fluss.
Wir hatten eine wirklich tolle Zeit in Bukit Lawang, siehe auch die letzten Videos, und die Trekking Tour zu den wilden Orang Utans hat uns extrem begeistert.
Wir hatten 70€ pro Person gezahlt, und die Tour bei Thomas Jungle Tours gebucht, da wir dort auch gewohnt hatten:
Man muss jedoch sagen, dass im Nachhinein die Fütterung und das Anlocken der wilden Tiere nicht wirklich ok war.
In den Momenten waren wir nur fasziniert, aber zurückblickend greifen die Guides so doch schon sehr stark in den Lebensraum ein und ändern das Verhalten der Tiere...
Darüber sollte man sich also auch zuvor einmal Gedanken machen!

Ach ja, übernachtet haben wir in Bukit Lawang hier:

Dort hatten wir Vor-Ort auch die Tour gebucht!
Alternativ können wir euch für Übernachtung und Tour (dann auch ohne anlocken und füttern der Tiere), diese 2 Eco Stays empfehlen:

Gunung Leuser - Sumatra 2018
Gunung Leuser National Park, Sumatra, Indonesia. In December 2018.
Excitingly beautiful, but also a fragile environment. Particularly palm oil plantations and poaching remain serious threats. However, the local population of Bukit Lawang seems to understand the benefits and importance of preserving nature well.
