Since the start of February we have been running a photo competition on Facebook in which entrants stand the chance of winning an amazing $8,000 trip in Asia. We’ve been asking for inspirational photographs to be sent in of your own village, town or city so we can get a taste of what life is like in your very own “Backyard”. So far we have had some really inspirational pictures sent in to us and in our latest blog we thought we would feature some of the very best sent in for Indonesia along with the entrants comments.

“Wakatobi in Indonesia is a haven for lovers of the underwater beauty. Known for its wealth of marine life because it is located between the three clusters of the world’s coral. The beach and the sea are very clean and clear. The photo above is Nda’a island waters, one of the islands in the archipelago Wakatobi, Southeast Sulawesi.”

“Bajo, Indonesia is a village where those who live there earn their livelihood by fishing. It’s located in the eastern Sulawesi’s islands and this picture shows you a small corner of  this village on water.”
