While visting Mount Bromo, I decided to stay a little bit longer to explore a less touristy mountain (Mount Ijen 2380 meters above sea level) which is further east of Java island.

While we were in in Java (Indonesia), home to the Java coffee and the now instinct java tiger, a local colleague recommended me to climb the volcanic mountains. I didn’t realise Indonesia consisted of so many islands. Volcanic mountains can be found in many places in the country.
