Once Upon A Ku De Ta Christmas

The Rock Bar, Ayana Resort
Visitors to Bali have usually heard of Seminyak. They've usually heard of Ku De Ta. But yesterday I discovered a hidden jewel in Jimbaran Bay...The Rock Bar. Jimbaran Bay is best known for its seafood restarants, but The Rock Bar most certainly steals the show. The Rock Bar is literally serve...

Getting to the Gili Islands
To get to the Gili Islands you must take a boat from the fishing village of Padangbai on the East Coast of Bali, but it can seem like a bit of a mission. The most advertised way of getting to the Gilis is on the fast boat which goes directly from Padangbai and this includes a free pick-up bus f...
