Bali (in English)

First night in Bali was just about relaxing. Beer by the pool and deep conversations until three in the morning.
Next day we went for a walk around Kuta and soon we realised that probable we are the only people walking there, everyone else was on the scooters. So annoying as there is no pavements and the drivers don't really look out. Kuta is a party place, good for singles, shopping and beauty treatments. Also there are magic mushrooms to buy on every corner.
From Kuta we went to Canggu and stayed few nights in the resort which my friend Karolina recommended to me. Beautiful place with bamboo bungalows and the pool. Sort of paradise, I could stay there forever. We decided not to do much for next couple of days just drink coconuts and relax.

Sipping coconuts in the pool we met Canadian couple, Camille and Jay and since then we are travelling together. Do you know that moment when you meet people and they are your kind of people and you connect straight away with them, learn from each other and inspire each other. Yep, that's how it was.

Camille introduced me to instagram. I knew the app, but she showed me how to use it in different context. Basically her instagram friend is a reason behind her trip to Bali. I met Lilu as well. Very inspiring girl and very talented photographer. You can see her work on instagram under the name daschacho. Lilu is showing us places which are not necessary on the tourist truck, places only locals know about. I am well excited about our trip to turtle island and butterfly park. Lilu's friend Stefan did a project and one of it's locations was mentioned before butterfly park. The project exposed relationship between human food and animals.

Ocean.
Me and Pawel thought we are going to spend most of out time in Bali on he beach and snorkeling. Most beaches in Bali are post volcanic beaches with black sand. Sometimes it looks more like the coil than sand and it sparkles in the sun like diamonds.
Water is insane!
From my first visit to the beach I gained respect for the water. Waves are sooo big! Bigger than me and they've got enormous power! Sometimes I struggle to keep the balance even if he water only touches my knees. It feels like the ocean wants to drag me in.

Yesterday I read that there is 17 560 islands in Indonesia and 11 000 are inhabited. If someone wanted to visit one island per day, he would go back home in 30 days, one month and seventeen days. There is some really remote places which are completely undiscovered. I am not going to make it during this trip but in the future I would love to travel there. I guess it would be travel not only in terms of distance but also travel in time.
