Who is not dreaming about diving in Maldives? Or what about a liveaboard in Raja Ampat or diving in Sipadan, Malysia. These are just some of the most amazing scuba diving destinations in the world that I have been to. However I haven't been diving since 2014 now. Why not? Long lasting ear problems are keeping me out of the water, despite an eardrum surgery.

Planning a trip to Indonesia and looking for the best prepaid SIM card in Indonesia in 2026? In this guide I will show you everything you need to know about buying a SIM card for your trip: where to buy one, how much it costs, which mobile network has the best coverage and what the best alternative eSIM is.

I have traveled to Indonesia more than 15 times and explored islands like Bali, Java, Sumatra, Kalimantan, Sulawesi and West Papua. From busy cities to remote islands, I have tested mobile networks all over the country and one thing is clear: choosing the right SIM card for traveling in Indonesia makes a huge difference for your trip.

Travelling is not only about the destination; the journey is sometimes just as incredible! This famous quote was definitely applicable to my trip to Raja Ampat. If you have read my blog Sailing through the Raja Ampat Islands with Mutiara Laut you know how I ended up on this amazing luxury sailing ship and that I had the time of my life.

Everyone has that one trip in his mind that he dreams of taking once in his life. Some will never even turn their dreams into reality, but when it comes down to travelling there is always a way to make it happen. Sailing the Raja Ampat islands of West Papua was one of those trips for me where I kept on saying some day. That day lately became reality as I set sail with the Mutiara Laut to explore my number one destination on my bucketlist.
