I am torajan myself and i can say that you explored my home village more than i did. I am glad that you got a nice tour local guide and also grateful that you shared our culture so people can get to know it more. If i may add an information, the reason why we slaughter buffalo at the burial ceremony is because the soul of the deceased will have to ride the soul of the buffalo to go to puya (after life), and thats also the reason why the baby is burried in the tree, as the soul of the baby is so small that it couldn't ride the buffalo yet. Burrying the baby in the tree will make the soul grow bigger also as the tree itself is growing too, and once the soul of the baby become big enough, it will reach its time and ready to ride the soul of the buffalo to the puya. The hole of the baby grave in the tree may not face the direction of his/her home. It should face the opposite direction as they supposed not to return home to be with family, instead go to the puya. Maybe you already knew this information, but i hope those who didn't would now do.
Thank you Natalie and Carles for visiting Toraja, especially the graves of my extended family in Suaya Sangalla. Always a pleasure to watch your journey together. Hope you are always healthy and happy.
What I really admire about the customs in Tana Toraja are the unique traditions that cannot be found anywhere else. This is the most unique tradition in the world. Including burying people who have died, but we don't find them at other places in this world.
Thanks for the video today, I learned more about Torajan culture from this 😊, as far as I know the funeral ceremony of Torajan are the most expensive in Indonesia even in the world & also the graves is very unique
Wow this is an unique experience, not every foreigner can experienced it & put it in a vlog like this, even though i've seen it before but never as details as this video. thank you Nat & Carles for sharing this video 😃
Bagus banget budaya, lanskap, arsitektur, keramahtamahan, adat istiadat toraya yang ditunjukkan di video ini. Setuju, lebih baik berkunjung dengan tour guide karena banyak informasi dan dampingan dibanding jika berkunjung sendiri. Tangga bambu itu nggak mungkin saya lalui karena berat badan:) Baik dan Natalie dan Carles tampak menikmati Toraja dan so adventourous...
As an Indonesian I would say terimakasih banyak / thank you so much for you both for sharing about cultures that I didn't know. I'm always counting more and more for your next videos and learn new things. Have a safe and meaningful travels, dearest Natalie & Carles😊✨
It's so many education and information in this vidio event im Indonesia dont know and dont have experiance to see that, so tank you for the vidio and exploring indonesia🙏, keep healty and enjoy your time guys in ondonesia😊
Cara melepaskan bulir padi nya masih tradisionak, kalau di daerah saya di Luwu Timur cara panen padi sudah modern, menggunakan mesin, padi langsung di masukan karung tak perlu memisahkan dengan daun2nya, tidak perlu menjemur, sudah ada yang siap membeli di jalan tani, di angkut menggunakan ojek motor, sangat praktis Proses panen bisa dilakukan dalam beberapa jam saja...
Kebanyakan orang Toraja tdk menjual padi, tapi untuk dikonsumsi pribadi dan kalau panenya banyak akan disimpan di lumbung padi (Alang). Biasanya kalau tdk suka turun sawah pemiliknya menyewa orang untuk menggarap sawahnya... Saat ini Kebanyakan orang Toraja merantau
di tempat saya ( suatu desa di jawa ) alasannya masih manual dan tidak menggunakan mesin adalah untuk berbagi. 1. siapapun boleh ikut memanen dengan pembagian hasil yg sudah di tetapkan ketika menjadi gabah, jadi tidak hanya keluarga saja yg memanen..tapi siapapun boleh ikut, hal ini di lakukan agar semua org di desa saat musim panen punya gabah untuk makan.. 2. cara memisahkan bulir padi tidak memakai mesin karena nantinya sisa2 yg masih tertinggal sedikit itu ada org2 tua yg memang sudah gak kuat ikut memanen akan mencari sisa2 bulir padi yg tersisa dan di kumpulkan mereka..biasanya dalam 1 sawah mereka paling banyak dapat beberapa kg saja.. tapi itu cukup buat mereka untuk makan nantinya. jadi intinya di tempat saya didesa itu masih tradisional tujuannya untuk berbagi kepada yg gak punya sawah..
And don't forget if you stop by in Papua, please stop in West Papua to be precise in the Raja Ampat islands. Well there are a group of beautiful small islands, where this area is home to 75% of the world's marine species and is nicknamed an underwater paradise. Really2 beautiful if you dive there.. 😎👍
@@NataliesPassport have you guys been to Leang Leang cave yet? Bira beach? Malino highland? Rammang Rammang? If you haven't, I don't know if you guys are still there, you should visit one of these places.
Tourist coba cara melepaskan padi dari batang padi dengan cara tradisional di pukul ke papan tapi kalau di luar negeri sudah pada pakai mesin moderen untuk melepaskan padi dari batang padi ya.
Next trip to Gili Trawangan Lombok, Mandalika Lombok, mount Rinjani Lombok, Raja Ampat Papua, savaya beach club Bali, ATLAS BEACH FAST BALI, finns beach Bali and labuan bajo 🏝️ komodo dragon island in Flores INDONESIAN 🇮🇩🙏👍❤️
Ritual Adat kematian orang toraja mahal kalau dilakukan...dan itulah Kampung orang orangnya Ramah Dan baik baik namun bawahannya keras beda dengan kota orangnya cuek itulah 🇮🇩
Hi guys, you said that you’d leave your guide’s info in the video description but I couldn’t find it. If I ever go back to Tana Toraja again I’d want to support Natalia because we don’t really see that many female guides around. Did you feel weird about visiting a dead person like that? I don’t know if I’d be able to do it. Not because I’m afraid, but because it feels like a taboo somehow. I did go to a funeral back when I was there, and even then I felt guilty because it felt like I was crashing in some stranger’s funeral. Although I’m sure the Torajans themselves don’t mind these things, it’s just me being me as someone from a different culture (still the same country, though).
Both of our guides info is at the top of the description and in a pinned comment! The best way to contact Natalia is on Instagram @toraja_local_guide or on whatsapp at +6282292366937 Mmmm honestly for me it felt more taboo to go to the funeral than it did to visit one of the dead people! Especially when we were able to talk to her son, they seemed really happy that we came to visit so it felt a lot more welcoming 😊
@@NataliesPassport Oh, thank you for the contact. Don’t know how I missed that! 🙏 Interesting that for you going to the funeral felt more taboo. I think it’s a matter of our respective cultural background. Thank you for sharing!
We had an amazing time traveling Indonesia (and there are still SO many places there we want to visit)! BUT we miss living in Bangkok so much too 🥺🥺❤️❤️❤️ there are so many places to visit and not enough time!!! 😱
Lol yesssss! 🤣😅 I was using safetywing, but I only get 15 days in USA with that….and we’re going to spend all of September in the USA with my parents. Genki is the best insurance I’ve found that will actually cover me there! 😍🤞
because funeral ceremony need huge of money depend on his/her status so dead body stiil in there until the family have enough money,need a couple years until ready,very expensive ritual and tradition but..that's it..
It's kinda scary....😂tbh...i can't do it..😂😂... meaning everywhere we don't know in that land possible a graveyard....omg.. cuz i could see the skeleton seems they are everywhere...and can you ask them about the walking dead person it's so famous in toraja...is it real or not?
They in the past also sacrificed humans, usually slaves because they were to accompany their masters in the next world. If you look at it today, white buffaloes with blue eyes have a fantastic price, imagine if you came to Toraja in ancient times, you were white and had blue-eyed, you could be an expensive human being . Just kidding 😂
🤣🤣🤣 that’s how I felt when I first heard about it! But after staying there and hearing all the locals stories and beliefs, it’s actually a really cool and interesting culture! Although I do love telling people about how unique it is there 😅❤️

We couldn’t believe how expensive the funerals are 😱 but everyone in Toraja was so nice 😍
did you witness the manee tradition while in Toraja? namely the tradition of changing clothes on the preserved corpses of family or parents.
We did not! We’d love to go back one day to see that too! ❤️
I really want to meet you guys in Toraja but I just found out this info now, even though you guys have visited it about a month ago. So sad :(
