Discovering the northern coast of Bali

At first mo and me were a little bit disappointed when we arrived on the northern coast of Bali. Haven’t they told us it would be a sleepy fisherman’s village which should be so much less touristic? There were still so many homestays, hotels and resorts next to each other and nearly everyone on the road tried to convince us to buy or book something from him - bracelets, snorkeling tour, hotel room, and so on.
- even some of the Balinese kids had already their own selling strategy (“how are you? Where are you from? What’s your name? Do you want a bracelet?”), which was so sad to see.

But after we got used to the touristy part of Amed we also started to enjoy the restaurants directly at the beach and had a nice evening in Warung Bobo. Mo ate some fresh Barracuda fish and the Warung had even some live music :)

We stayed in Sama Sama Amed, such a nice place! Our beautiful room had a nice terrace with a garden view, where we could do some yoga asana in the morning. On our first day in Amed we rented a scooter to discover the surroundings and the smaller villages around the area. The road was right next to the coast and everything looked so beautiful. The smaller villages nearby which also belong to the region of Amed were less touristic and we found a small romantic Warung directly next to the sea where the prices were about the same as on Java. I tried the typical Balinese liquor Arak and the taste reminded me of the partying times during uni🤭😅Read more
