It seems that at every turn, there is somewhere new to visit that remains somewhat…

I begin to stir due to a constant banging sound coming from outside. Not overly loud, in fact, most people would probably not hear it. But I am a light sleeper. I try to ignore it. But after an hour or so of tossing and turning,…

Often one of the first questions by visitors to Bali is where to eat. There is an absolutely mind-boggling choice of hotels, restaurants, cafes, warungs and food stalls to choose from. However, many of these places either do not cater for vegans or provide very limited vegan options (salad anyone!). Don't let this put you off.

Before we knew it we came across a place that sounded quite interesting. Waterblow! Without giving it too much thought, we decided that that would be our…
