Tony, Rob and Jerry share an interest in volcanoes. But they are not scientists or geology students. Like thousands of
people, their hobby is climbing volcanoes. Read about their experiences…

TONY: A very exciting time in my life was when I climbed the Semeru in Indonesia. It is an active volcano and it
erupts every 30 minutes. Incredible eruptions. I got to the top in four days with the help of a guide.

ROB: I had a memorable time in Bali. I decided to climb the Agung. It was very difficult. I left at midnight and arrived
at the top at 9 the next morning. I always climb volcanoes at night because it is too hot during the day.

JERRY: My favourite volcano, the Rinjani, is on Lambok Island. It is enormous. The first time I climbed it, we did it in
five days. The local guide took us to a giant lake on the way up. We swam up there! Fantastic!
