Hi, there!
Today is #LoveFriday day, by @liliana.duarte.
As you know, my daughter and her bestie are here with me in East Timor. So today we're heading to Jaco, a small island on the East point of the country. If there is a paradise somewhere, this place would be it.
But, first, we have to get there. And to get to paradise we have to spend a whole day on the worst road ever, with a sleepover in the middle of the way.
125 km so far, 5 hours. Because the roads are worst than ever. In East Timor we measure the distance by time, not by miles or Km.
The landscape is perfect, as this country is all surrounded by beauty... everywhere. Just check the photos out!
We were happy, although I had to be with my full attention to the road... it was even dangerous. Sometimes I didn't even know if there was a road or not, as it seemed to disappear into the abyss...
The landscape was changing every mile... sea, rice fields, palm trees... awesome! I could never be tired of it!
Then, the sunset and the almost fun moon rising... at the same time.
The road was so bad that even the phone got weird... look at the pics it took, lol!
We passed by some villages and even saw a cockfight setting in. Furak, the word in the photo, means awesome in the local language. And awesome it was!
We arrived in Baucau, our stopover, already by evening. And I was tired. But, you know? We never get tired when we run with love in our hearts. Even when the roads are bad, beauty can be showing up all the way. All we have to do is look at it with love. I had to come. My heart is full of love and I wanted to fulfill this dream of my daughter... she wanted to show paradise to her friend, in her first visit to East Timor.
So, here we are, heading to it. I'm writing this post in Baucau. Next stop, Jaco!
All you need is love! With love, everything is possible!
So here is my Hymn for today. Enjoy!
