My husband is a lucky man for a number of reasons (I like to think), but one of the most recent reasons is that he has been working in Timor-Leste for the last few weeks so has been able to do a bit of travelling (even though he’d have me believe he spent most of the time working).
Unfortunately, as he is social media’s number one enemy there is no chance of a blog entry from him, but he did manage to take a few photos – after I’d snuck a camera into his suitcase and then sent him a stern email warning him what would happen if he didn’t use it.
So here are a few reluctant photos with his ‘helpful’ commentary from Dili in Timor-Leste, and then Bali in Indonesia, where he was apparently forced by his boss to stop-over on the way back to Cambodia for some task or other (I told you he’s lucky).
and “that’s the sea.” |
“They are boats by the sea.” |
“That’s the beach.” |
“Cocktail bar. Nice!” |
“That’s the sea again.” |
“Sunset.” |
“A martini and a memory stick. Long story” |
So there you have it. A wonderfully thoughtful and detailed description of Timor-Leste and Bali in the insightful words of my verbally-challenged husband. Who said some men have difficulty communicating?

Awesome post. Intriguing headline and so funny reading your husband’s commentary. Guess this explains why there are so many more female bloggers!
Thanks Arianwen. I read somewhere that women talk three times as much as men. I think I have just proven that thesis, but am surprised it is not more actually. π
I love the comments that follow your photos in this one ;-D Thanks for making me laugh!
