MyPictureDay Challenge Round #5 by @timsaid

Hi, Steemians, I'm Isabel, a Portuguese living in a remote country, East Timor, a tiny catholic island in the South East Asia, near Indonesia an Australia.

This is a country of multiple wonders, since the nature and landscape to the people, warm and still living in a traditional way. In my 3 photos (now I know @timsaid :)) I will try to show you a bit of it. Hope you enjoy them!

Sunrise and sunsets are breathtaking, over a tropical coral sea perfect for diving and snorkeling

People live mostly from traditional agriculture and fishing

Thanks to all!

Isabel

First of all congrats for winning the #mypictureday challenge.
As I read that East Timor was occupied earlier by Portugal, and then it got independence in 1975, you must be living there for a long time now.
Definitely you must be knowing the place very well. Keep posting, I will be following you.
Thanks and regards!

Hi, thanks for your words and votes. I truly appreciate them. Yes, is true, ET was a former Portuguese colony and now a proud independent country. Thanks for following, I'm following you back... you know my son is also a musician :) :)? Cheers!

I love travelers and musicians. Cheers!

Same here :) cheers!

Stunning photos, thank you for sharing this place with me. I love the water buffalo. They used to live in the rivers of the Amazon Rainforest where I lived in Peru. Great for making buffalo cheese! I'm following you!

Oh, how great of you saying that! I'd love to go to Peru! It has to be amazing! In ET buffaloes live in the rice fields and also at the small rivers and lakes. They are truly photogenic! Thanks for following me, I'm following you back ;) :) :)
