My story with Indonesia
My name is Guillaume Hervier, I'm 34 years old, I'm blind, and I'm head over heels in love with Indonesia — especially the island of Java.
From 2016 to today, I've lived through one thrilling adventure after another in this exotic land on the other side of the world.
First trip to Java — filming a documentary with local visually impaired students in specialized schools.
Married an Indonesian woman I met during that life-changing humanitarian trip.
Back and forth between France and Java. Building our house in Gandrung, a small mountain village in the hills above Bandung.
Tailor-made support
This country moved me so deeply that I dream of sharing it with as many people as possible. Its delicious street food, warm-hearted people, postcard-perfect landscapes, and genuine character. This Southeast Asian archipelago offers a dizzying change of scenery that leaves no one indifferent.
You're visually impaired, like me, and you want to safely explore this colorful land that delights the senses.
You have another disability, and my knowledge of the area along with my sensitivity to difference give you the confidence to embark on an adventure you wouldn't dare attempt alone.
You have no particular difficulty, but you like my approach and would love for me to take you into my world.
Welcome — here's how we'll organize things.
You send me an email saying Indonesia calls to you. We quickly get on a call to talk it through.
I add you to a group of other travelers available on the same dates, and we prepare the trip together.
Flights, accommodation, packing, travel insurance — I advise you so you don't forget anything and keep the final bill as light as possible. You book everything yourself based on my recommendations. I'm not a travel agency, just an advisor.
A trusted local agency I know, with whom you've booked excursions yourself, takes you day after day to the most beautiful spots in Java. I'm your personal translator — English and Indonesian — to make communicating with the guides easier.
Bandung — The Paris of Java
Bandung is where it all began for me. Where I got married, where I lived for several years. It's my home base, the city I know best. So I'm the ideal person to help you build the best possible itinerary in this fascinating city once known as the Paris of Java.
