Last stop: Umalas ❤️ Interesting chat with partner James about G-strings in cafes (he wasn’t wearing one). Some call it ‘empowerment,’ others see trashy entitlement.Met lovely locals Mira, Whulan, Shanti and Julie, fans of Australian tourists. Even the ‘party party’ crowd. Sun-kissed Ken and Barbs roaming like rotisserie chickens.Love the jungle’s mist and giant beetles.Big thanks to Sheree and crew on the Virgin flight to Melbourne, calming everyone through an electrical storm. ‘Don’t look at the lightning!’ she smiled.Three countries in under a month, precious travel buddies. Mountains to skyscrapers, shiny saris to thatched roofs at sunset.Luxuries? Bichamen roads, drinking water, friendships and family. What do people talk about most? Who they love ❤️ . . . #traveldiary #workation #baliadventure #balidestination #baliexplore #balilifestyle #baliphotography #baliliving #balibeauty #balivibes #balivacation #travelbali #travelmood #travelobsessed #traveloften #goexplorewander #adventureanywhere #havingagoodtime #authorslife #storiesoftheeveryday #bucketlisttravel #womenwhowrite #womenwriters #femalewriter #femalewriters #fictionwriter #australianauthor #australianauthors #aussieauthor #actionadventure
