Let Travels With Sheila teach you how to Travel on a Budget, or go for broke and wallow in luxury on Lombok! Most importantly, let her ease your fears about languages, currencies, personal safety and staying healthy. The word, "Budget," in Indonesia is just another word for so cheap, you won't believe it. HERE'S SOME OF THE INFORMATION YOU'LL FIND INSIDE... - Planning Information for a Trip to Indonesia. - See the Best of the Lesser Sundra Islands. - How to Save Money! Are you ready to visit The Lesser Sundra Islands? If so, you'll definitely be on the "road less traveled," smack in the middle of Indonesia's Ring of Fire. Sumbawa Island, for example, sees (perhaps) 60 tourists a year! Very few tourists are able to pry themselves away from fabulous Bali, a short boat ride away from Lombok, the most popular Island in the Lesser Sundras.
