Back to Bali

My Happy Place happens to be Bali, Indonesia. When I used to live in Indo, Bali was the place I'd escape to. It was close enough that it didn't take much time or money to get to but it was different enough from Java that I was able to get a break from the regular chaos and polluted skies. Having not been there for nearly 4 years, when a few friends mentioned they wanted to go during Spring Break I was more than happy to join in the fun.

I was wondering if I would still like Bali now as much as I did then. I think when I lived in Jakarta I almost needed an escape and so Bali served that function. Now that I live in a cool city and have a fairly "Easy Asia" life.. I wasn't sure I'd appreciate it the way I used to in the past.

But it did feel like coming home and it was fun to visit my old haunts and see some familiar faces. Being with a different crew meant that I ended up changing up my regular Bali routine and exploring different parts of the island. What a beautiful place!

I do love an infinity pool. This one looked over Dreamland Beach.

It was a nice relaxing time. Great food, great weather, great beaches, great amounts of time to read, great people and an overall great experience!
