There are more than 18k islands in the disseminated Republic Of Indonesia, yet we keep finding ourselves coming back to Pulau Nias. Boundless exploration, while thrilling, can be overwhelming. There’s nothing wrong with seeking refuge in the familiar. Diego Santos is a Brazilian gent who loves his lines rifling and barrels fluoro green, and finds the allure of Nias too strong. Doesn’t she charm?
