Traveling around the world by the sea is now as simple as ABC. You can just google the best yacht package you can afford, bring along your suitcase and other personal stuff. You do not have to learn about wind, astrological sign, and even tackle the mad waves—thanks to modernization and high-tech era. However, if you wonder how our ancestors successfully stepped into another faraway continent in the past, attending Pinisi Festival in Bulukumba will give you beyond history and amusement.
