His friend from Prague shared the phone numbers of the Indonesian consulate as well. “A bunch of Mikey’s friends were posting phone numbers to call, and I got in touch with a woman named Christine at the consulate, I think,” Aimee went on, “She gave me her email and I sent her screenshots of Mikey’s location. I don’t want to think about what would have happened if he didn’t have his phone, or if his battery was dead.”

Isn’t it amazing to see that so many people worked together to rescue him? Before his phone gave out, Mikey got to speak with Indonesian authorities. Later on, Mikey told CNN, “I got a call from a guy named Joe from the [consulate] who said help was coming but to help him find me. I told him there was a hotel near my GPS pin, that I’d be just before that hotel, then my battery died.”
