After a heavy rainstorm began, I gave up on walking and took a cab back to Castaways Bar + Restaurant, a popular expat hangout in Dili, the capital of Timor-Leste, where I enjoyed an excellent dinner.
Here, you order food at the bar, then pick an open table. When your food is ready, it is brought to you….they somehow find you.
The restaurant was hopping and while I joked about all the light-skinned people (the American and Portuguese Embassies are very close and the restaurant is part of a diving resort that caters to Australians) there was actaully a very fair mix of people enjoying the evening.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on Live and Let's Fly.
