30 hours of travel and three countries later we're welcomed by gargantuan statues under a tropic sun. Something epic to cut through the jet lag.
I do yoga at home, but in Ubud on the patio of your bungalow with the morning sun filtering through the jungle it's just, well, better.
In NYC there's a bodega or a Starbucks on every corner. In Bali there's a temple everywhere you turn. The culture prioritizes kindness and smiles. Having skipped the playa to come here I feel its spirit in the people.
Everywhere you go you're surrounded, SWARMED by mopeds. Like many places I've been in South and Southeast Asia - Pakistan, Thailand, Sri Lanka - the roadways are full of creative license and artistic interpretation.
A black sand beach in Tabanan province, grains as fine as baby powder. I've seen my share of shores but nothing like this.
A week away from everything, even the rest of Bali. Daily yoga, massages and floating in an infinity pool. And a postcard sunset to welcome every evening.
The Potato Head. At night. With my person.
Last stop. Dream Beach Huts in Nusa Lembogan. Wondering if I'll be able to stream my new show from here... Wondering if... What were we talking about?
