East Timor [Timor Leste]
Today marks only a decade of international recognition of East Timor’s independence. After colonising the country since the 16th century, the Portuguese decolonised it in 1975, leaving it open to the invasion from bordering Indonesia the following year.
It’s proximity to Australia (~640km from Darwin), lack of established tourism infrastructure and troubled past (killings and disappearances, forced displacement and famine, detention and torture, violations of the laws of war, political trials, sexual violence, violations of the rights of the child, and violations of economic and social rights), make it an intriguing first stop on an overland trip through Asia.

Hey there this is somewhat of off topic but I was wondering if blogs use
WYSIWYG editors or if youu hhave to manually code with HTML.
I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding knowledge so I wanted to get advice from someone with
experience. Any help would be enormously appreciated!
Hey, i simply use wordpress’ preset themes which means you basically just upload your images and insert your text into boxes, no html coding required, but it helps
