Having gone through their post history, they're generally very appreciative of simple things and beautiful sights, so I'd assume unbelievably good =)
You are correct. I can't believe we actually did it. (We're back now.)

Wholesome internet stalking
(I use the word "stalking" in jest. I am amused because usually when one has cause to "stalk" a user's post history, it's because there's some drama or dirt that turns up. I always feel awkward and a bit vulnerable when I reflect on how people can peruse your post history at will, but I find the wholesomeness of this subverts the anxiety I usually feel at this prospect. It's scary that we can quickly find enough to summarise a person's online presence, but "generally very appreciative of simple things and beautiful sights" is a lovely thing to be, and makes me wonder how I would come across at a glance. Good, I hope — because it turns out that it is possible to have positive conversations with internet strangers)

The important thing these days is: it must be Instagram worthy. That's all that matters.
You could say that's all that mattress? ... I..I show myself out
You did good. You can stay
No, that pun was sheet
The picture's not terribly Instagram worthy, but it looks like a really cool trip and I'd love to do that.

Welcome, fellow travelers. I'll be your tour guide.
Yeah, I was thinking "I hope they left you a mosquito net!"

Might want to get a mosquito net.
That's the least of their worries! They might want to get an orangutan net! They can come right in. That's an orangutan bed if they wanted it, not their bed.

This'll need bottles of anti-bug lotion and protective clothing at the very least, and then night comes you'll have to set up mosquito netting besides electric zappers.
Your hotel room seems to be missing some walls.
100% humidity + bugs + windy. It's a no from me.
Also the absolute lack of privacy. It's like having a Facebook account.

This is the fucking dream. Would need a mosquito net, obviously, but otherwise this sounds absolutely amazing.
Does anyone have a link to this cruise?
This is the company we went with. The conditions were a bit basic, but the food was awesome and the river was one of the best experiences in my life. https://www.orangutanapplause.com/

Do the orangatans get to watch you . . you know?
…sleep.
The real vacation is in the comments.
Sure hope not. Seeing sapiens goin at it, the orangutans might become erectus.

...~~to see orangutans~~ to feel mosquitos
I like how they left you towels, just in case a big wave soaks you while you sleep.

Wow, obvious to me some people haven't been camping before, that or were miserable the entire time. That looks pretty freaking awesome!
It does, but I was immediately thinking that mattress would be soaked as soon as it rained or they have water coming on deck
Are mosquitoes a concern in that part of the world? If so and they don't have some nets hiding somewhere you are gonna have a bad time.
We had a mosquito net for night, but they weren't bad. I was surprised.
There's no way that doesn't smell musty.
I just did this 3 weeks ago. They give you mosquito nets for the night, and they weren’t that bad anyway. The trip is worth.
