🇹🇱1162km东帝汶摩旅🇹🇱
-English version below-

在地理上，
东帝汶一直属于东南亚。
直到去年正式加入东盟后，
我终于看见了摩旅的机会。

因为网上资料不多，
谷歌地图上的很多地标，
几乎没有资讯和照片可以参考。
所以这趟旅程，
我们只有一个大概的方向，
抱着“走一步看一步”的心态出发。

实际上，
很多道路、桥梁、餐馆、油站、住宿都还不完善。
一路上，
骑了大量非铺装道路、
坑洞、地陷、工程开挖路、
过河、翻山越岭。
而雨天，
更让这些路况加倍挑战。

这十天，
我们时刻都在调整路线，
最终只完成了不到一半的原定计划，
但，心却是无比温暖满足的。

在这个未经修饰而原始的地方，
很多当地人认出我们身上的马来西亚国旗，
陌生人不管男女老少都会主动跟我们聊天，
还会告诉我们，
从东帝汶争取独立，
到今天的发展过程中，
马来西亚曾给予许多协助。

东帝汶会让我想再去一次，
希望它越来越好~

🌟亮点🌟
1. 真实不加修饰的国家
2. 非铺装/越野骑行300km++
3. 雨季过河

🇹🇱1162km Timor-Leste Motorcycle Adventure

Geographically,
Timor-Leste has always been part of Southeast Asia.
But it was only after officially joining ASEAN last year
that I finally saw the opportunity to explore it by motorcycle.

There isn’t much information online,
and many places on Google Maps have little to no photos or useful references.
So for this trip,
we only had a rough direction in mind,
setting off with a
“we’ll figure it out along the way” mindset.

In reality,
many roads, bridges, restaurants, fuel stations and accommodations
are still underdeveloped.

Throughout the journey,
we rode through countless unpaved roads,
potholes, landslides, construction zones,
river crossings, and mountain passes.
And when it rained,
everything became twice as challenging.

For ten days,
we were constantly changing routes and adjusting plans.
In the end,
we completed less than half of what we originally planned —
but our hearts felt completely full and satisfied.

In this raw and unpolished land,
many locals recognized the Malaysian flag on us.
Strangers — young or old —
would come up and talk to us warmly.

Some even shared how Malaysia
had supported Timor-Leste
from its struggle for independence
to its development today.

Timor-Leste is a place
that makes me want to return again someday.

I truly hope this young nation
continues to grow and prosper.

🌟 Highlights 🌟
- A raw and pure country
- 300km++ of unpaved / off-road riding
- River crossings during rainy season

🇹🇱骑非铺装到行李架脱臼了~

东帝汶摩旅骑记10

在Tutuala海滩过了一夜
隔天离开前发现
后座行李支架两边的螺丝都掉了
大概是昨天40km的非铺装路
把螺丝都震掉了

民宿主人拿来了铁丝
试试看能不能把两根铁条拴在一起
我突然想到cable tie
就劳烦几位壮男出手
一边用三根
三两下就搞定了
有cable tie在手
天涯海角都能修
万能的cable tie~

这六根cable tie
帮我撑了好几天
一直到我在路边车行修铁链为止

🇹🇱The off-road so rough till luggage rack dislocated!

Timor-Leste ridelog 10

After spending a night at Tutuala Beach,
when about to leave the next morning
I discovered that the screws on both sides of the rear luggage rack had completely fallen off.
Most likely shaken loose by yesterday’s 40km of rough off-road riding.
The homestay owner brought out a metal wire,
trying to see if the two bars could be tied together.
Then I suddenly remembered — cable ties.
So the few strong guys,
using three cable ties on each side.
A few quick pulls,
and the problem was solved.

With cable ties in hand,
you can fix things anywhere in the world.

And these six cable ties
actually held up for several more days,
until I finally stopped at a roadside workshop
to properly repair the rack and chain.

🇹🇱骑到东帝汶最偏远的极东点海滩~

东帝汶摩旅骑记9

第三天我们骑到东极端Tutuala海滩
从Fuiloro开始的40公里
是各种款式的非铺装
那坑洞多到像蜜蜂窝
超过1个半小时才终于抵达

离沙最靠近的tutuala村庄要8公里
沙滩只有两家民宿
没有商店
没有餐馆
除了经营民宿的人
和来自Tutuala的四名船夫
只有我们两个外人
我们包场整个沙滩
住了一晚竹屋

接着下了一晚的雨
我无法安心入眠
因为隔天我们必须骑同一条路出去
那会是比今天更挑战的一段路

🇹🇱Riding to the most remote eastern tip of Timor Leste

Timor-Leste ridelog 9

On the third day,
we rode to the remote beach of Tutuala,
at the eastern edge of Timor-Leste.

The 40km stretch starting from Fuiloro
was filled with every kind of unpaved road imaginable.
The potholes were so endless,
it looked like a giant honeycomb.

It took us more than one and a half hours
just to finally arrive.

The beach itself is about 8km away
from the nearest village, Tutuala.

There are only two guesthouses.
No shops.
No restaurants.

Other than the guesthousea owners
and four boatmen/fishermen from Tutuala,
we were the only outsiders there.

For one night,
we had the entire beach to ourselves,
staying in a simple bamboo hut by the sea.

And it rained the whole night
My mind was disturbed
As I know the same way out the next day
Will definitely be challenging!

🇹🇱去个海滩都太难了~

东帝汶摩旅骑记8

东帝汶谷歌地图上很多地标
没有图片、评价或资讯
当地旅游建设不能用东南亚其他国家的标准来想象
必须有心理准备遇到难度

我们地图上找到一座海滩
导航引出一条路
4公里15分钟
但实际用了将近1小时
因为整条都是越野
要过几条河、几条溪
时间都用在勘查溪流的深度😂

为此我决定，
要为东帝汶地图地标贡献更多照片和资讯
让公众参考
包括我住过的酒店民宿
吃过的餐厅咖啡厅

同时我发现，
东帝汶的牛羊很幸福
他们不只有草原游荡
还能到沙滩上吹海风~

🇹🇱It's not easy to go to a beach

Timor-Leste ridelog 8

Many places marked on the map in Timor-Leste have little to no photos, reviews, or useful information on Google Maps.

The country’s tourism infrastructure can’t really be compared to other Southeast Asian countries.
We need to be mentally prepared for unexpected challenges along the way.

We found a beach on the map, and the navigation showed a route that looked like only 4km and 15 minutes away.

In reality, it took us nearly an hour.
Because the entire route turned out to be off-road, crossing several rivers and streams along the way. Most of the time was spent checking the water depth before crossing 😂

I decided to contribute more photos and information to places in Timor-Leste on Google Maps, so future travelers can have better references
including the hotels and guesthouses we stayed at, as well as the restaurants and cafés we visited.

At the same time, I realized the cows buffalos and goats in Timor-Leste live quite a happy life.
Not only do they roam freely across grasslands, they even get to chill by the beach and enjoy the sea breeze too~

🇹🇱东帝汶要注意油耗~

东帝汶摩旅骑记7

除了北部经济活动集中活跃的地方
有密集的油站之外
东西南中部的油站
并不是分布得很平均
这些发展迟缓的地区
道路建设不佳
过河没有桥梁
对于小油箱摩托来说
必须留意油耗

找不到油站
就找路边汽油小贩买瓶装的

🇹🇱

Timor-Leste ridelog 7

Outside the more economically active and developed northern areas,
where petrol stations are relatively dense,
fuel stations across the east, south, and central regions
are not evenly distributed.

In these slower-developing areas,
road conditions are rough,
and some river crossings still have no bridges.
For motorcycles with small fuel tanks,
it’s important to keep an eye on fuel consumption.

if can’t find a petrol station,
We’ll buy bottled fuel
from roadside instead.

🇹🇱东帝汶人会说至少3种语言~

东帝汶摩旅骑记6

东帝汶人普遍使用的是Tetum
是必修课
东帝汶被葡萄牙殖民统治400多年
葡萄牙语是官方语言
也是必修课
英语在学校也有教学
印尼语是从小看印尼节目学的
就像我从小看TVB学广东话一样

除了英语和印尼语
我搞不懂他们在说葡语还是Tetum
不过我认得abrigada谢谢
Peixe鱼，葡萄牙烧鱼真的有名
我摩旅葡萄牙时学会这些词
像警局、政府部门的标识我也认得
而"escola"(学校) 是骑到Venilale一个景点学会的
那是一所葡萄牙殖民期间建的学校
校舍已经破旧不堪
但依然有学生在上课

🇹🇱Timorese can speak more than 3 languages

Timor-Leste ridelog 6

The most commonly used language in Timor-Leste is Tetum,
and it is taught as a compulsory subject in school.

Timor-Leste was under Portuguese colonial rule for more than 400 years,
Portuguese became one of the country’s official languages
and is also taught in schools.
English is taught in schools as well.
Bahasa Indonesia, many locals picked it up from watching Indonesian TV programs growing up
just like how I learned Cantonese from watching TVB dramas as a kid.

Other than English and Indonesian,
honestly, I can’t really tell whether people are speaking Portuguese or Tetum most of the time. 😅

But I do recognize words like “Obrigada” thank you
and “Peixe” fish,
(Portuguese grilled fish is really famous)
and I learned these words during my motorcycle trip in Portugal.

I can also recognize some signs on police stations and government buildings.
And the word “Escola” (school)
was something I learned while riding to Venilale.
There stands an old school built during the Portuguese colonial era.
The buildings are already worn down and crumbling with age,
yet students are still attending classes there today.

🇹🇱摩托店多过餐馆~

东帝汶摩旅骑记5

东帝汶80%的通勤工具是摩托车，
几乎家家户户都至少一台
北部沿海区多是速可达
中部和南部因为路况挑战
很多会用越野摩托
比如CRF和KLX。

这里摩托维修店比餐馆还多
我的链条在前往南部山区Same时
发现送掉了
在路旁找了间店修一下
小伙是个中学生
父亲老板大人出去了
由他来掌店
三两下功夫弄好了
也给两台车链条上了油

之后敲到大石块
链条的铁支歪掉了
铁片松掉cling clang作响
又在雨中找了路边的修车行
老板用螺丝起子凹了几下
我的摩托又是一条好汉了！

🇹🇱Bike shops more than restaurants~

Timor-Leste ridelog 5

About 80% of daily commute is by bikes,
Almost every household owns at least one bike.

Along the northern coastal districts, scooters are the most common.
But in the central and southern regions, where the roads are rough and challenging, many people ride dirt bikes like CRFs and KLXs.

Here, motorcycle repair shops seem even more common than restaurants.
On the way to the southern mountain town of Same,
I realized my chain was loosen.
We stopped at a small roadside workshop.
The owner was away,
so his teenage son, a high school student
handled the repair himself.
In just a few minutes, he fixed it and even lubricated the chains for both our bikes.

Later on, after hitting a huge rock,
the chain guard got bent badly.
So once again, in the rain,
we stopper for another roadside repair.
The mechanic simply took a screwdriver, bent it back into shape with a few quick moves…
and my bike was ready to conquer the road again.
