Today on 'Heading Off' we're exploring one of the least visited-countries on the planet - Timor-Leste. It's had a rough history, but after gaining independence this small Southeast Asian island is keen for tourists.

Helping boost the country's tourism profile is Jonty Crane, who's been living in Timor-Leste since February.
