The typical, conventional nine-to-five work is the most stable and surefire way to earn a decent living—or is it?
Mahendra Moonstar is one of the few who dared to think differently. He abandoned the certainty of an office employment for the chance to explore Indonesia on his own two feet, one island at a time, from Sabang to Merauke.
A bold decision indeed. One that demands a considerable amount of wit, perseverance, and most importantly: commitment.
