Ancient Minahasan tombstone in Airmadidi, North Sulawesi, Indonesia. In the old days they are buried with their knees touching their chests so they could fit inside these tombstones. No coffins were needed.

About:

I like to travel, I like to eat, I like to take photos, and I might have one or two comments in between. Someday I hope National Geographic will finance me to the Pyramids of Giza and Machu Picchu. Studied law but got lost among the regulations - prefer to be lost inside the forests instead.

All of the photos in this blog are taken by me, unless stated otherwise. Reblogs are welcome provided that you still keep my original link. :)
