TRAVEL DIARY: BALI

Bali, as you may have heard or seen for yourself, is a remarkably spiritual place. It's easy to see how people from all over the world visit and end up extending their stay by a few days, a week, even years. The Hindu religion of the island, mixed with influences from Buddhist and indigenous cultures, combine to create a feeling of spirituality that stands out from anywhere else. We spent most of our time in Ubud, and several days in Seminyak as well. We began our trip with a four day yoga retreat at Blooming Lotus just outside of Ubud. It was an incredibly refreshing way to rejuvenate and center ourselves to begin our time in Bali. Make sure to visit Cantika Spa Alami for a unique and revitalizing spa experience with beautiful views of the vast rice paddies.
