A Love Affair

Bali is a land that seems to have a magnet at its very heart. I'm sure it may sound absurd but i feel that the moment you go to Bali, you will DEFINITELY want to go back there. Maybe its Bali’s beauty, maybe the friendly people.. The 'last paradise' is also known for it's peaceful lifestyle and perfect waves for surfers


Hotel :

The hotel i stayed, Nikko Bali Resort in Nusa Dua was mesmerizing.
This hotel assures Serenity – a secluded beach retreat with private cabanas and sun loungers.

However there's always a price to pay for room service..
Guess what was the prices for the meals below ?


Close to 80 Singapore dollars!!

  • Every kind of restaurant imaginable, from local Indonesian cuisine, to Mexican, Persian, Italian, Greek, you name it - it's all here in Bali! And all for a very decent price. So, EAT OUT!


Attraction :




The Uluwatu Temple is one of the most spectacular temple in Bali with just 6000Rupiah (90cents SGD) to get in. This temple is inhabited by large number of monkeys, who are extremely adept at snatching visitors' belonging, including bags, cameras and eyeglasses. Keep a very close grip on all your belongings.

However, once you make your way to the end of the temple, Chances are..

you're probably having the time of your life.

And just at the right spot, you get to experience the breathtaking sunset..



People of Bali :


The local people are among the kindest and friendliest people you will find around and, despite the rampant development due to tourism, they treat foreigners with genuine kindness. They are also guaranteed to ask..

1) 'What your name?
2) 'Where you from?
3) 'Where you stay in Bali?

I feel this is very heart warming as you are sure to feel welcome wherever you go in Bali.

Now, it is not hard to see why tourists like the Australians and Singaporeans love visiting Bali.
