Today we got up and went for a final breakfast with Liz and Daria at Crate cafe. The food was delicious and then we headed back to the farm to swim and sunbathe before mils and I left! Was a very very sad goodbye but hopefully we will see them in Laos or something. We finally arrived in Ubud after a very sweaty journey to our tiny hostel called Vanara Sigwira. It is so small but homely so is basically like a homestay and only £4 a night! We dropped our bags and headed straight to the scared monkey forest which was incredible - SO many monkeys everywhere and one even stayed tickling my toes and climbing on my skirt which I found terrifying haha! We then walked to some rice fields to have a look at the sunset before having a meal with a view of the rice terraces! I went for Indonesian which was interesting but good to try new food haha!Läs mer

Bali - day 13
27 april 2019, Indonesien ⋅ ⛅ 30 °C
Today we rented a moped for the day and visited the Tegalalang rice terraces at sunrise which were beautiful and walked around here for the morning - it also meant it wasn’t too hot whilst we were there! I managed to slip at one point and my foot got buried in a rice paddy lol!! We then headed to two waterfalls. The first was called Kanto Lampo and it was beautiful - it was huge and not too busy! The second we went to was called Tukad Cepung equally as impressive and so cool - it was inside a cave so the light came in from the top!! It was all misty down there and felt almost magical lol. We then came back starving and had late lunch at a restaurant called Bali budda - was delicious! Chilled at the hostel after a very busy day and had an early night as we had to get up at 1am the next morning!Läs mer

Today we woke up at 1am to hike up Mount Batur! Was so cool climbing in the dark with torches although there is literally no path so your climbing up rocks - was quite slippy! We got to the top at about 5.30am ready for sunrise and it was INCREDIBLE! The colours were insane and we sat and had pieces of bread (a literal slice of bread) and a boiled egg as a luxury breakfast! ;) haha! We then looked ar all the steam coming out near the crater and headed down which was actually harder work that going up! When we got down we were absolutely knackered so chilled at our hostel for the day and made friends with a group of girls who were also staying there! We then headed out for a wander around Ubud and a very delicious dinner!Läs mer

Today we checked out of our hostel and got on a glass bottom boat with all our bags to go snorkelling! It cost us £5 for the whole day which was a bargain. Saw turtles, these amazing statues in the water and so many fish in the clearest sea ever!! Was so cool. We then got dropped at our next destination Gili Air. got rather sweaty walking to the hostel but Gili Air is literal paradise - a really chilled out tiny quiet island! Our hostel is lots of small shacks which are so cute! We bumped into our friends from Gili T so went for sunset drinks and had a delicious mexican for dinner all together - was so much fun! During the meal there was a 20 minute power cut which apparently happens most days was so funny.Läs mer

Today was our final day in Gili Air and we were so sad. This place is so tiny and quiet with way less tourists than Bali - it has felt like a proper paradise! Spent the day with our hostel friends chilling and chatting. We then walked the whole island as the sun set, it was so beaut! Sat at the cutest restaurant for dinner and ate as the sun was setting and used this fancy hotels pool which was lucky! We then walked to another outdoor cinema and this one was incredible on the beach with the most starry sky ever! Sat and watched the film LION which was amazing and we even saw a shooting star as we were watching it! Such a good final day here!Läs mer

Today we got up early ish and headed down to the port to leave Gili Air! Had breakfast on the boat and arrived at our next island Nusa Penida at lunch time. Checked into our beaut hostel Nuansa Penida hostel and got cold tea and snacks on arrival, very fancy! We chilled here and met some really nice girls who we decided to spend tomorrow with! had some lunch and then rented mopeds to ride the east coast of the island. The island is actually huge so we rode through so many villages on the way which was amazing to see some proper Balinese villages. We eventually reached Thousand Island viewpoint after a very bumpy ride which was just incredible. The view was insane we were in love! We then headed down a very scary footpath (Mummy would have hated it) to Diamond beach and this was just as amazing, one of the best beaches I have ever ever been to. Watched as the sun set and then rode back to our hostel; the ride was so much fun as the sun went amazing colours and we stopped at a restaurant on the beach front on the way back for some dinner! Best day, we love Nusa Penida already!Läs mer

Today was the BEST day ever!!!! Met up with our friends we met yesterday and we had rented a car and driver for the day to do the west coast of the island. We started off going to Klingking Beach which was just as beautiful as all the pictures we’d seen, walked down the steep steps and saw some monkeys! We then headed to angels billabong and broken beach which were also both so beautiful - the water was so blue! After this we headed to Crystal bay where we had lunch all together and swam in the sea! Headed back to the hostel and chilled by the pool, knackered from the day! Millie and I then very spontaneously decided we wanted to see the sun set so we quickly rented mopeds and rode down to Crystal bay again to see the most beautiful sunset ever! Stopped on the way home at a restaurant for some well needed dinner and ended up bumping into our really good friend Gina from Australia here - so fun!Läs mer

Today was such a good day in Uluwatu. Woke up early and a group of 9 of us all headed down to Padang Padang beach (hidden beach). We all had the most delicious smoothie bowls in a cafe nearby and then headed down to the beaut beach. A couple of them rented surfboards and surfed and we swam and chatted all together. At about 1 we all headed back to the hostel to get ready and then all got on a party bus (25 of us) to a place called OMNIA Bali! It was so fancy and so much fun and the hostel got us in for free - we had the literal best day here. Got a free cocktail and the place was on the edge of a cliff with an infinity pool! We danced all afternoon to the best DJ with a huge group from our hostel and then headed back to the hostel for free dinner later on. Played the most intense game of beer pong with the boys from our hostel and then all chatted all evening! The best day :)Läs mer

Today we woke up on airport chairs in Singapore airport lol which was a very odd experience! We had slept all night here and woke up not even feeling that bad! We boarded our flight to Hanoi at about 9am and arrived at midday. Unfortunately we missed Daddy who was arriving into Singapore at 3pm :(! We checked into our hostel Vietnam backpackers downtown and then went out exploring. We visited the Hoàn Kiem lake which I recognised from last time I was here! We then headed to a place for Bahn Mi - Vietnamese sandwiches which were delicious! Headed to Ho chi minh’s mausoleum and then to train street which is a really narrow residential street with a train track through the middle! Had beers with an English couple and sat here until the train came though - it was so cool when the train comes through you all stand up and everything is put away in the houses! Headed back to the hostel and chatted to the people in our room before an early bed!Läs mer

Today we woke up super early to catch our 6.30am bus up to Sapa! We finally arrived at 1pm after our bus breaking down and having to swap buses haha! We met mama shushu at the bus stop who was the cutest smallest lady in the whole world! Our friend Ben from home was joining in Sapa so we reunited with him and a Dutch girl who was also joining and headed for a Vietnamese lunch! Set off in a group of 6 of us with Mama shushu for a 4 hour trek through the sapa hills as the sun set - it was absolutely stunning. The views were incredible and Mama’s laugh was the cutest thing ever! Arrived at her house at about 5pm and said bye to the people who had been on our trek! We hung out here with beers and met the other people staying with mama shushu - there were 8 of us or so! She served the most delicious dinner and there was so much of it! We then all drank rice wine with her and a Dutch girl bought a ukulele so we sang along to songs she sung - such a good day!Läs mer
