and Why it Matters
We’re not a big travel brand. We’re just a small team (ok, a married couple and some cats) doing our best to share one of the most beautiful, overlooked parts of the world with you.
Your support doesn’t just help us keep Exploring Sumatra going — it also helps us support local businesses, promote ethical travel, and give back to the community that makes this island so special. Here’s how you can be part of it.
1. Buy Our Essential Sumatra eBook
Get insider travel tips, hidden gems, and full itineraries for exploring North Sumatra.
You’ll love it — and we’ll be supported to keep creating more essential Sumatra travel guides!
✅ 5 Star Reviews
✅ Instant download
✅ Made with love from 10+ years local experience
2. Feed a Street Cat
We care for a growing gang (6 and counting!) of sweet rescued kitties in our home.
We also feed an increasing number of strays in the village.
Even $2 helps — it buys 2 days’ worth of food for all of our fluffballs & strays.
