I am a typical girly girl I'm not going to lie (at the best of times anyway) so when Martijn mentioned adding a jungle trek into our travel plans I was slightly apprehensive. Flying from modern Singapore to Medan airport was a culture shock to say the least but a good one! I am usually on my phone when I have a few minutes to myself never mind a five-hour car journey but from the second we got our private car to the time we arrived to Bukit Lawang I did not take my eyes from the car window, it was just incredible to see the way the locals lived their lives which was so different to home.
