Falling in Love With a Balinese?

by Ubudian

Bali herself is the ultimate seductress, so it is no surprise how often a tourist to Bali can be smitten by the charms, grace, elegance, character, and beauty of the Balinese people. I totally “lost my head” here over fifteen years ago, and I will always be grateful for having been so utterly smitten.Back then I had no capability for logical or “sensible” thought. As the ancient Greeks speak of the sirens, Bali and the Balinese can be equally intoxicating and mesmerizing. In Bali, all the senses are on overload. Here, it isn’t Greek mythology...rather, it is the reality of Bali. Should I now offer a logical tip like, “keep your head on straight?” No, and that’s because Bali has nothing to do with the head. Here, it’s all about spirit and heart. Personal romantic relationships are just that...personal and unique for us all. Am I qualified to offer advice on this? NO, and no more than a...

Beautiful, Clean & Pollution free Bali-1

by goutammitra

Bali is so clean and pollution free that you will fall in love with the place like I am! Comparing the city with our Indian city especially Kolkata is meaning less. Kolkata is full of filth and squalor!

A FRIEND IN NEED IN BALI- I Wayan Ardiana ( ARDI)

by goutammitra

Well it happens only rarely that you find a friend and a Guide at the same time in a place! Though, Bali is full of very very friendly people, but I was more lucky to find a friend and a Guide in Bali called - Wayan Ardiana ( ARDI). I shall never forget him in my life, during our 5 days stay at Bali, he was with us almost 8.00AM to 10.30PM everyday! He possesses not only excellent knowledge on Bali and Indonesian History, his lucid method and soft voice will make you glued to him what he is saying. During our 5 days of interaction, we exchanged Indian History and Indonesian History since Hindu period 2500 BC to the 12th Century. We also discussed our Epics The Ramayana and The Mahabharata, Sanskrit and Pali literature and their influence on Indonesian archipelago. On how India and Indonesia, Bali, Sumatra, Java, The Malaya was related through trade, commerce, marriages and ruled by the...

Money Changer at Various Places in Bali

by goutammitra

There are hundreds of money changers at Bali, spread around the city. Please try to avoid to change money at the Denpasar Airport or at the hotel you stay, as they always give you the worst rate which is far below the market rate for every 100 Dollar note you loose about 5 dollars. But, don't worry, there are many govt. authorised money changers in almost all the touristy place in Bali, they are very efficient and their rates are displayed in LCD screen. A word of caution, money changed in the hotel , they will gladly accept your Dollars, Pounds and Euros and give you their Rupiah. But when, you want to convert those Rupiah then they will politely say, that they are not authorised to buy Indonesian currency. Similarly, if you are carrying your unutilised Rupiah to Bangkok, you are just in for a shock, you will loose about just 30% against Thai Bhat. Well that's the lesson we learnt, my...

Tourist Friendly Laundry Service!

by goutammitra

Bali is really a very very tourist friendly place, they have everything a tourist may need for short and long stay. An average tourist to Bali normally stays about four to five days, and surely he/ she is going to require use of laundry. In large hotels it is very expensive, one wash may even cost more than the price of the cloth. In Bali , I noticed in almost all the streets where there are hotels and guest houses, there is an automated washing service with ironing. The price is also very cheap a few thousand Rupiah for a Shirt/ Pant/ Jeans with ironing.I asked the lady owner how much she is charging for these clothes the gentleman in the picture has given for, it was only 15000 Rupiah for washing and ironing, really cheap. They also offer 24 hours and 4 hours express service.

One of the recommended dinner is to take it at QUEEN’S TANDOOR, SEMINYAK - BALI: "Dinner With Balinese & Other Dance"The live show is full of energy as the three or four dancer with present various dances of several countries. This show is also assisted by a very nice Disc Jockey Edwin Lee, who is a Chinese and his wife. The dancers also invite you to dance with them. Please do not try this if you are drunk, only decent people are invited to dance with them by the dancers. In case, you are drunk , they will just move away from you and others won't be able to enjoy the show.

Ngurah Rai International Airport ( Bali)

by goutammitra

Contrary to the belief as mentioned in Wikipedia ( http://wikitravel.org/en/Bali#b) that the Ngurah Rai airport is inefficient and passengers are harassed while departing ( May be this is also happening sometimes), we found it is very very efficient in passenger handling issuing visa, departure tax, immigration etc. It was hundred times better than Kolkata International Airport. We were inside the boarding area in 20/25 mts.The airport is very clean , staffs are very helpful and smiling. The airport now has x-ray cabin just like Subarnabhumi Airport Bangkok
