Baucau District, Timor Leste


Tourists will usually not travel to other districts of Timor Leste, as those places seems out of reach by tourists. In order for us to get to our destination at Viqueque, we would need to drive pass Manatuto district and Baucau district along the costal and up the cliff. The roads are super narrow without safety road structure. If you have motion sickness, my advice is that you take your motion sickness pill or wear nausea bands. Simply because you will be on an extreme bumpy journey all the way till you reach your destination.

At Baucau, the petrol kiosk is where we went for toilet break and pump petrol for our next lap to Viqueque. Have you stay in kampong before? If you had, then you will know what to expect from the toilet. No flushing facilities, no hand dryer, no mirror, no hanger and no lighting. Just squat, do your business and out of the place.
