Attaching some photos that I have taken

My partner and I (both of us in early 30s) would be flying in to indonesia after spending a week in thailand and would spend 29/30 days days in Indonesia this August. We love exploring nature, culture, and unique experiences over nightlife and resorts.

Draft itinerary:

* Days 1–3: Bukit Lawang, Sumatra (2-day orangutan jungle trek)
* Days 4–6: Lake Toba / Samosir Island (Batak culture, villages)
* Days 7–11: Fly to Java, Yogyakarta (Borobudur, Prambanan, Kraton – also our remote work base)
* Days 12–13: thinking about Bromo/ Ijen but seems both of them would be super-crowded at this time of year?
* Day 14: Ferry to Bali from Banyuwangi
* Days 14–17: Ubud (temples, ceremonies, rice walks – second work base)(my birthday falls on 17th)
* Days 18–20: Amed
* Days 21–22: 21st morning - Ferry to Gili Meno (snorkelling)
* Days 23–25: Kuta Lombok
* Day 26: Ferry to Labuan Bajo
* Day 27: Wae Rebo village overnight (Manggarai tribal culture, cone houses, cloud forest trek)
* Days 28–30: Komodo 2-night liveaboard
* 30th August: Fly Labuan Bajo → Kuala Lumpur

Would really appreciate any feedback or comment on the itinerary. Thanks so much
