I spent last week in SoE. Most of you might wonder where it is. It is in Nusa Tenggara Timur, in the island of Timor. About 100 km from Kupang, on the direction to Timor Leste.
Nice place, cold, windy, about 600 m above sea level. The temperature was ok, but the wind was quite unbearable. Well, actually, the only problem was that I didn't bring proper things. Had I gone there with coat, long john, and scarf (plus if I could get warmer blanket:p), it would be oki doki.
The air was clean, the sky was clean ... the starts looked sooo ... beautiful. With proper things to warm me up it would be an ideal place for stargazing. :-)
During the day, people will expose themselves to sunlight to get warmth -- interesting that even in Indonesia there are people who'd go out to enjoy the sun:p

coincidentally, SoE is the only place in NTT that I know, besides Kupang! Never been there though, only to Kupang (and Dili of Timor Leste, of course).
Tahu gak, Teh: katanya dr salah satu pantai di sana, kalau malam bisa kelihatan lampu2 dari Darwin.
