Banda Aceh is full of great people and lots to do | Banda Aceh (Indonesia Ep 2)
Banda Aceh is a long bus-ride from Medan, but we made it and settled in for a few days of exploring this unique city. The mainly muslim population are amazingly friendly, and loved helping us explore the sites of town, while getting a lot of selfies along the way. Banda Aceh was ravaged by the tsunami in 2004, but has recovered well. There are tsunami related attractions such as the museum, monuments and two awesome boats that were washed inland. We also found great markets, wonderful beaches, and enjoyed a look through the grounds of the beautiful Grand Mosque.

Al, from New Zealand and Kel from Australia met through work in 2010 and have been together ever since. Always infected by the travel bug they finally decided to head off on an adventure and started with Vietnam and Laos before heading to Sri Lanka, India, then Cambodia and Indonesia. Their mission is to explore as many off the beaten track places as possible through a slow travel philosophy on a tight budget.

Leave to Roam
We are Kel and Al, a couple from New Zealand and Australia who have always had a passion for travel. In January 2018 we left our full time jobs and started to travel the world. We spent two years travelling on a budget through South East Asia documenting our adventures as we went before we found a new dream, to buy a boat! Fours years of hard work scrimping and saving led us to our dream. We introduce you to our home Dakini. She is a 2010 Lagoon 421 and we love her. Purchased in Greece we started our adventure cruising the greek islands. Two years later we have sailed all over Greece, Italy, Turkey and Malta with a winter in Tunisia. Our plan for 2026 is to explore Albania, Italy, Malta, France and Spain before the biggest adventure of our lives, crossing the Atlantic around New Years. Exciting times ahead.
