Would you dare to bite a bull's tail? *********************************************** West Sumatras Real Life Cowboys celebrate the annual "Pacu Jawi" which marks the end of rice harvest. „Pacu Jawi“ means „bull race“ in the traditional Minangkabauan language. Whereas the indonesian language Bahasa, „Jawi“ isn’t used any longer. Instead, „Sapi“ refers to both genders, cows, and bulls. That’s why the Balinese, Maduranese, and Eastern Javanese call their race „Karapan Sapi“. The social event in West Sumatra might not look unique at a glance since bulls are speeding all across the Indonesian archipelago, but just the Minangkabau turn a freshly harvested paddy field into an improvised track, which makes a muddy disaster inevitable. read the full story on claudiosieberphotography.com @ West Sumatra, Indonesia © claudiosieberphotography.com *********************************************** #picoftheday #fun #traditional #sumatra #pacujawi #bestintravel #peopleinfinity #culture #travelgram #peoplescreative #speed #travelstoke #people #destinationearth #jaw_dropping_shots #mobilemag #ig_worldphoto #huffpostgram #bbctravel #natgeotravel #indonesia #exploretocreate #sport #lovetheworld #visualsoflife #bbctravel #travelstoke #action #travelphotographer #roamtheplanet cc @streetartglobe @natgeotravel @bbctravel @nikonartists @jaw_dropping_shots @people_infinity_ @visualsofasia Would you dare to bite a bull's tail? *********************************************** West Sumatras Real Life Cowboys celebrate the annual "Pacu Jawi" which marks the end of rice harvest. „Pacu Jawi“ means „bull race“ in the traditional Minangkabauan language.

Whereas the indonesian language Bahasa, „Jawi“ isn’t used any longer. Instead, „Sapi“ refers to both genders, cows, and bulls. That’s why the Balinese, Maduranese, and Eastern Javanese call their race „Karapan Sapi“. The social event in West Sumatra might not look unique at a glance since bulls are speeding all across the Indonesian archipelago, but just the Minangkabau turn a freshly harvested paddy field into an improvised track, which makes a muddy disaster inevitable. read the full story on claudiosieberphotography.com @ West Sumatra, Indonesia © claudiosieberphotography.com *********************************************** #picoftheday #fun #traditional #sumatra #pacujawi #bestintravel #peopleinfinity #culture #travelgram #peoplescreative #speed #travelstoke #people #destinationearth #jaw_dropping_shots #mobilemag #ig_worldphoto #huffpostgram #bbctravel #natgeotravel #indonesia #exploretocreate #sport #lovetheworld #visualsoflife #bbctravel #travelstoke #action #travelphotographer #roamtheplanet cc @streetartglobe @natgeotravel @bbctravel @nikonartists @jaw_dropping_shots @people_infinity_ @visualsofasia Would you dare to bite a bull's tail? *********************************************** West Sumatras Real Life Cowboys celebrate the annual "Pacu Jawi" which marks the end of rice harvest. „Pacu Jawi“ means „bull race“ in the traditional Minangkabauan language.

Depending on whom you will ask, it is either a diver’s paradise or a trouble zone. It became more conspicuous that not only the nomadic Bajau fishermen are roaming the crystal clear waters in search of a good catch, also the Moro gang and Abu Sayyaf with his mates are. Due to governmental mischief and lousy migration control within the trib-boarder area of Malaysia, Indonesia, and the Philippines, these waters do not only cater maritime beauty to its visitors. Rumor of a next Somalia is getting louder if authorities don’t increase their border security. „Nothing travels faster than the speed of light, with the possible exception of bad news, which obeys its own special laws“ (Douglas Adams). That’s most likely why tourism and piracy get all the media attention, whereas the Bajau are out of the spotlight. After all, their harsh and traditional way of life should be told. read the full story on claudiosieberphotography.com @ Sabah, Borneo © claudiosieberphotography.com *********************************************** #picoftheday #selfmade #traditional #malaysia #gypsy #bestintravel #peopleinfinity #culture #travelgram #peoplescreative #nomad #travelstoke #people #destinationearth #jaw_dropping_shots #mobilemag #ig_worldphoto #huffpostgram #bbctravel #natgeotravel #wanderlust #exploretocreate #secretplaces #lovetheworld #visualsoflife #bbctravel #travelstoke #travelandlife #travelphotographer #roamtheplanet cc @streetartglobe @natgeotravel @bbctravel @nikonartists @jaw_dropping_shots @people_infinity_ @visualsofasia
