There are many reasons to visit Bali at least once in a lifetime.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This small volcanic island between Lombok and Java offers everything you could wish for when travelling. You can enjoy the gorgeous long beaches and sunsets, visit a multitude of temples, walk the rice fields, try surfing or yoga,<\/strong> dive with the turtles, learn to cook<\/strong> Balinese specialities, climb the top of a volcano, or dive under a waterfall, to mention but a few things…<\/p>\n

Tourism is booming<\/strong><\/p>\n

Everything on this island is in the service of tourism, and as a guest and tourist,<\/p>\n

I felt comfortable and welcome everywhere<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0Ubud is a must-see<\/strong>, as the centre of Balinese artistic and cultural life. Walk the downtown to the Monkey Forest, a bargain at the market, and have lunch at the Batan Waru cafe (one of the oldest restaurants in Ubud<\/strong>). My personal favourite was a visit to Canggu and Candi<\/strong>\u00a0Dassa<\/strong>, both a bit further from the overly noisy or overly crowded Kuta or Nusa Dua. Here, the locals outnumber the tourists. I spent my days surfing on the beach, relaxing in yoga classes and savouring the seafood delicacies in various warungs (Balinese local restaurants.<\/p>\n

The main means of transport are taxis and scooters.<\/strong> The people are genial and kind, and I had no unpleasant experiences in the month I spent there, but one should be careful in exchange offices (especially the unofficial ones), and with the so-called \u2018Bali belly\u2019<\/strong> when choosing food. I would also recommend an excursion to the Gili Islands<\/strong>, especially for scuba diving and the nightlife.<\/p>\n
