First Impressions of Bukit Lawang, Sumatra, Indonesia 🇮🇩 | Orangutan Jungle Trek
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 1 มิ.ย. 2024
- Well, it’s always bittersweet to say goodbye. In this video, we are leaving Medan and heading to Bukit Lawang. Bukit Lawang is about a 3-hour drive from Medan City. Bukit Lawang is a growing village settled on the banks of the Bohorok River, at the edge of the Gunung Leuser National Park. This park is famous for its protection of the Sumatran Orangutans. There are only two places in the world where you can see these beautiful animals in the wild, both in Indonesia: Sumatra and Kalimantan (Borneo). Today, we will walk around the village, get settled at Thomas Resort, and meet our guide, Bendy, from Trekking Orangutan Sumatra.
In our next video, we head out for a 2-day/ 1-night Jungle Trek. We go in search of wildlife sightings, play in the river, sleep in rustic accommodations, eat an amazing dinner by candlelight, and go river rafting. This is an adventure of a lifetime. We are still singing the Jungle Trek song that Bendy taught us, and we have added it at the end of each video so you can hear it, too.

ABOUT US
We are the Bags Packed Family: Jonathan and Kelly with our three children. We sold our home in Alaska, USA, eight years ago, and headed overseas. We are teachers and found fantastic teaching positions in India. Two years later, we moved to the United Arab Emirates. Three years after that, during the beginning of the pandemic, we made the move to our current teaching jobs in Indonesia. We love traveling and finding adventures as a family. We hope that our travels will inspire and provide our children with the confidence to meet new people, try new foods, and enjoy learning a new language. We hope our vlogs will inspire you to get out and travel, too!

Try to explore tasikmalaya city west java,there also lot of food culinary and nice places

glad to see your family...
I like mommy because she always smiles and always has positive thoughts... she always looks happy
Apart from all the touristy information, the best part of the vlogs are the one on one conversations with the family members regarding their experience. We want to see more of it. I love how Cedar, Granite and even Forest have started participating so much in the vlogs!
That’s awesome. Thanks for the feedback and suggestions.
Omg Forest he has such a cute personality.I can’t get enough of him 😍😊🤗
He is a sweet little guy!
I love how Forest carry his own backpack, teaching the kid for responsibility at early age
Cute 😊
Senang sekali cara anda mendidik anak-anak.
Anak-anak selalu ditanya pendapat.
Belajar bagaimana berani, percaya diri mengungkapkan pendapatnya.
Dan anda juga pendengar yg baik bagi mereka. Salut.. 👍
Masyaallah. I love you all from Indonesia. May Allah guide you all to embrace Islam. ☺
These kids are adorable… love them so much!! Enjoy indonesia
Omg damn!! Uncle john u r so lucky people bcs u had the tour guide like mr bendy, bcs he is a good and honest person! and it also looks very sincere in taking care of your family, Pak Bendy's words and treatment are very clear he is very sincere and also when looking after the forest! looks like taking care of his own son
Love you,Kelly!
Your husband is lucky to have you as a very supportive wife n doting mummy.....🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷God bless the family!
Thank you so much!
Traveling with family using van as a kid is always fun ... sit and eat snack while looking at beautiful nature landscapes ... unfortunately i'm an adult now and must become the driver for my family
Me as a first child can sense Granit will be a good leader because of the way he treated his brother and sister.
Forest in the forest, Like coming home 😍😁
His natural habitat!!
@@BagsPackedFamily the cutest creature I've ever seen in the forest 😁
New sub here, I like that this is different from the other travel videos which are mostly solo or couple. This travel-family of five makes it a fun, no drama adventure when I know that it is not always easy, especially with very young kids (and them behaving perfectly).
You both are such good parents your kids are going to remember all this stuff all their life imagine them sitting down telling their kids the things that you all have done with them and telling their grandchildren when your kids grow up they are going to be such amazing children thank you for sharing these videos with me I am in a wheelchair and don't get to do much and your gives me so much enjoyment in my life and I think that you should make a t-shirt that says good times
Thank you so much for your kind words and vision. We really hope so. :-)
Love ur kids.. they’re simply awesome.. !!
every notification appears. I immediately rushed to watch it, happy to see this family. Have fun in Indonesia
Thanks, Jamal! We appreciate your continued support.
@@BagsPackedFamily 👍😘🇮🇩🇺🇸
Oh my god, seeing Forest was walking on the bridge makes me worried but great he made it!
He did great! 😊
You should go to Lake Toba while you are in North Sumatera, it's worth visiting place.
Although I'm Indonesian, if I wasn't see the news maybe I didn't know that there's orangutan in Sumatra. There's a little difference between Sumatran orangutan compare to the orangutans in Borneo/Kalimantan. But basicly is the same species. Rainy season is coming in Indonesia, so having raincoats will be helpful. Have a safe trip & enjoy!
Thanks for the added information. We also plan to visit Borneo!
Waiting for the next video, healthy is always the point for Bags Packed Family 👏👍
Very humble family 😊
The little boss Forest is adorable
forest is again very very cute😍
Warm,laughter,love,happiness👍nice to see bags packed family👏

I like mama kelly , she is positif vibes and always smile , forest you so cute
Thank you so much. I am very fortunate to have Kelly as my wife.
Again and again I enjoy your family trip, Thomas Retreat is good choice for you, because almost of them can speak english. If you have more time, You should go to Lake Toba. I'ts biggest volcano lake in the world. You can find original Batak tribe, magnificent view and also delicious culinary. 👏
Ohhh forest ur such a cutie pie....."and the monkeys ate blah blah..."
