TRAVEL. HUMOUR. SHORT FORM

Bali- The Calm Before The storm

Easing into backpacker life in Indonesia

Bali was the trip equivalent to the calm before the storm.

The place to chill out and compose myself for the sweltering bus pilgrimages, intestine demons, bang my head against the wall scams, and insistent hucksters yet to come.

Java and Sumatra were not going to be kind to us. Beautiful but challenging.

It’s not perfect. It’s touristy as a tourist place can be. In Kuta, the hostel map features McDonald’s, Starbucks, and Pizza Hut, but my God, was it EASY.

So simple.

Days spent breezing along the endless beach, listening to cute, summery, indie music, and reading “Eat, Pray, Love” (Don’t worry, I’m aware of the cliché that I am).

A bit of yoga here and surfing there.

Crisp, fresh, white, fish. Chicken satay skewers.

Meandering down the hippy streets of Ubud, scooting past temples, and skipping around the Monkey forest.
