It has taken well over a month to read through all the post and everything. I started with nono's and went through all of that, then I started reading the thread. I am finally down to less than 100 post to the end, and decided that I will finally book a trip to batam. I will be going next week, so that leaves me a week to finish the last few posts.
Obviously being the first trip I will stick with nono's advise (even though his beginner guide is a bit dated). I have booked my ferry tickets according to his guide, and have booked the formosa hotel. I will compile a list of locations and just start plugging away.
Hopefully I will have something to report about my trip later.
