THIS IS BALI

I write extensively throughout this blog about Bali. It would be easy to say - This is Bali, but there are so many sides to the "Island of Gods". If you prefer Bali is also "Paradise Island". How your refer to Bali all depends on why you visit. If you travel to Bali with an open mind and open heart, it is quite possible to have a travel experience you never expected and even an experience of a lifetime. In other words, you can have everything Bali has to offer.

 

Bali is beaches, beach resorts and the vast Indian Ocean that can sometimes be unforgiving. Bali is sacred temples, some of which date back seven hundred years. Bali is some sort of ceremony every day of the week. Bali is the jungle and the Sacred Monkey Forest in Ubud. Bali is creativity and the Balinese's openness to share. Bali is motorbikes zooming past you in rapid fire. Bali is lush green rice terraces and palm trees.

 

Bali is spicy food. Bali is the great sense of humor of the Balinese. Bali is friendly and welcoming. Bali is rich in tradition. Bali is Balinese Hinduism. Bali is winding roads through lush green tropical plants and foliage. Bali is peaceful and quiet. Bali is yoga and meditation. Bali is art. Bali is woodcarving and basket weaving. Bali is spiritual offerings to the gods.

 

Bali is anything you want it to be quite honestly. I think what you experience in Bali is entirely up to you.

 

The first time I visited I went on a whim.

 

I help aspiring and established photographers get noticed so they can earn an income from photography or increase their sales. My blog, Photographer’s Business Notebook is a wealth of information as is my Mark Paulda’s YouTube Channel. I also offer a variety of books, mentor services and online classes at Mark Paulda Photography Mentor
