Ubud, Bali, Indonesia; Today, dear readers, was my last day in Ubud, my last day in Bali, and the last official day of my travels in South East Asia and the end of an incredible 13 months away from home.

Ubud, Bali, Indonesia; Today was my birthday! Happy Birthday to me! The thought of turning 32 was not something I was particularly relishing.

Day 60 in SE Asia – Hanging Out My Arse But Still Radiating Light

Ubud, Bali, Indonesia; Last night at the closing of the Ubud Village Jazz Festival I’d had a blast; admittedly I’d drank far too much (mixing my drinks never serves me well) and hadn’t got much sleep, but I’d had a blast and wouldn’t have changed it for the world.

Day 59 in SE Asia – Golden Showers and Showers of Jazz

Day 54 in South East Asia – What A Perfect Day

Canggu, Bali, Indonesia; Today, all my prayers were answered and Karma and I reignited our passionate, if not slightly tumultuous relationship, firmly cementing it over cheap Bali Hai beers down by the beach and a delicious Indonesian meal. It was the start of a brand new week, it was time to put the past behind … More Day 54 in South East Asia – What A Perfect Day

Day 52 in South East Asia – Sunshine on a Rainy Day???

Canggu, Bali, Indonesia; Last night I was kept awake by the pitter patter of rain on Gusti’s roof (and by Serbia’s snoring). This morning I awoke to the pitter patter of rain on Gusti’s roof (Serbia was still snoring). And to my dismay, neither of them stopped. Now, I could’ve used the rain to my … More Day 52 in South East Asia – Sunshine on a Rainy Day???

Day 51 in South East Asia – Bali, You Need To Up Your Weather Game

Canggu, Bali, Indonesia; Today I went to my first yoga class of this Bali trip at a place called Jungle Room.
