Warming Yourself on the Driest Island in Indonesia

There is no doubt that Sumba is the driest island in Indonesia. The issue of water supply which is still the main issue of the island is still heard today. However, luckily under the current government water supply has increasingly reached the Sumba community so that their lives are now increasingly prosperous. However, behind the heat and dryness of Sumba, it turns out that the island is also the most beautiful island in Indonesia. I call it the “Resting Place of the Gods”

Actually I have reviewed about Sumba in previous uploads, however, after I searched further, Sumba still holds thousands of great diverse destinations. Whether it’s savanna, hills, beaches, lakes, dams, and others. Here are the places that I offer to you, Sumba!
