East Timor

EAST TIMOR - A NEW COUNTRY WAS BORN

Dili - Government palace (Former UN HQ)
I was in East Timor in the Year 2001, the country only become independent on 2002.
I went there to work during the United Nations Administration (UNTAET) for 7 months (from February til August), but I like the place and I return in August 2006.

 I've been there in 2004 and there's no need to pay that anymore. And I recommend it as one of the best beaches around Dili...
