EDITOR'S NOTE
Here Comes the Rain… Some of you might not like it, or even hate it; but the frequent rain showering Bali should do well for the island after the long lasting dry season last year. Fun factors should also not be affected, as several actions and attractions such as white water rafting and waterfalls are at their best conditions during the rainy season. To learn more about activities-to-do during this rainy season, you can visit Explore Bali booths in Jl. Laksmana/Oberoi (right across Mykonos restaurant - Seminyak), Jl. Raya Seminyak (right in front of Ryoshi restaurant - Seminyak) and Jl. Melasti (right in front of Ketumbar restaurant - Kuta). While February is around the corner, love begins floating in the air. Celebrating love on Valentine’s Day over a glass of exotic cocktail during sunset should be a way of expressing love that you and your beloved one will never forget. We have listed several spots where you can enjoy the breathtaking sunsets (and sunrises too) in this issue’s The Ten (see page 44). We are also showing you about how love exactly works in Bali – for the unfortunate ones – through the traditional, and of course mystical, charms. If you are single and wanting a lover to spend Valentine’s Day with, then you need to carefully read this issue’s Feature Story (see page…). Rainy season should also make your Bali holiday even more adventurous. If you are exploring the island without a driver, then don’t worry to get lost as the friendly Balinese people will gently show you directions. However, there are things that you need to know when taking instructions on where to head from a Balinese person. Read our Believe It or Not to learn more (see page…) Our other regular columns are still here; therefore, enjoy reading! And enjoy Bali too!

Drifter Now Open! No, Drifter is not your typical surf shop, like the ones that are already widely spread around Kuta and Legian. To suit the classy street of Kayu Aya (or better known as Jalan Laksmana) Drifter sells brands like Insight, Hurley, Al Merck and Obey . After some heavy renovations, the shop transformed into a true gem, so head over to Drifter a.s.a.p. to improve your cool factor.
Rain is Finally Here, Nusa Penida is Happy The long-lasting dry season late last year has left five villages in Nusa Penida with failed crops, thus resulting food shortages. The crops have been negatively impacted by a prolonged drought and pestilence, creating additional suffering for the island dwellers where 47.83% of the total populations already live below the official poverty line. The current rainy season is therefore expected to overcome the crops problems.
Chinese New Year in a Day Full of Love Get your claws out because February 14th, 2010 heralds the beginning of the year of the tiger in Chinese astrology. The tiger sign symbolizes courage, independence, passion and power. Predictions for this year show that 2010 will bring economic recovery and financial success, but will also produce international conflicts and general disharmony. However, make sure to put no harm with the claws as this day also marks the most romantic of all celebrations: Valentine’s Day.

Balinese Can Stay Healthy… Free of Charge! New Year brings good news for the Balinese, as starting 1 January 2010 Bali Mandara Free Health Care Scheme is put on practice. This means, every Balinese who is need of medical care or hospitalization will be treated without having to pay for anything. All that it takes to get the free-of-charge services is a Balinese ID card (KTP). This scheme is applied for Balinese people that don’t have any health insurance throughout all regencies in Bali.

Tirtha
The Balinese Hindu’s appreciation towards water is not only based on its importance in their daily life but also its important function in religious ceremonies. The water used for ceremony purposes is called tirtha (purified, holy water). The purification is done through the specific mantra chanting by a Pedanda or Pemangku (priest, authorized person) or even obtains from a certain place with special rituals. There are two types of tirtha used for ceremonies. The first one is Tirtha Pelukatan. This holy water is applied as soul cleanser before one enters a temple or starts a ceremony. Tirtha Pelukatan is sprinkled by the temple priest to all people before starting a ceremony. In some places in Bali when the temple ceremony is held, Tirtha Pelukatan is put inside a big earthenware in front of entrance door and stained by the people themselves. The second tirtha is called Tirtha Wangsuh Pada. This holy water is sprinkled after a ceremony is over as a symbol of God blessing to human. In daily practice, every time after the prayer the worshippers will be purified with tirtha as a symbol of life and deliverance of amerta (immortality).

BELIEVE IT OR NOT
Go North Driving around to the deep corners of the island on your own could
at times lead you to pleasant surprises; especially if you get lost!
Yes, we are totally aware that getting lost could be one of the most frustrating ideas. But on a holiday in this island, this could mean a
closer encounter with everything that is ‘real Bali’ — not to mention that there are plenty of interesting things going on off the main
streets, hidden away on the backstreets and backwaters. Anyway, Bali is known for its friendly people. In other words, you can always pull
over and ask for directions. These friendly, lovely people will for sure point you the way.
We need to remind you, however, that the Balinese people
(especially those still living in villages) are not really familiar with
using the words “left” or “right” when pointing directions. Instead,
they will tell you to go north, south or other win directions. Bringing a compass wouldn’t help much either; this is because the Balinese
people share a different view on the magnetic alignment of the Earth.
For a Balinese, north (also called mountain-wards or kaja) is where the highest mountain in Bali, sacred Mt. Agung sits. Since Mt. Agung is
located in Karangasem regency, which is not at the most northwards point of the island, the ‘Balinese north’ could actually be south, especially for those in Singaraja areas.
Yet, this whole confusing direction concept doesn’t stop right
there, for it also affects the way the Balinese sleep. The Balinese
Hindus believe that people should sleep with their heads facing north and feet south. East is also a safe one because it is in the direction
of the rising sun, a major source of energy for life. In fact, Balinese
believe that if you choose to sleep in any other direction, such as kelod (seawards) or in the direction of kauh (sunset), you will be a bearer of
ill fortune. If you face your head west you will have no love in your life and everyone will hate you; if you face it east, you’ll live a short life.
So, it will be wise to just pay a really good attention at the finger as
a Balinese is pointing you directions — so that you’ll finally find your way. Or if you want to live years longer after the next sunrise, you might need to rearrange your bed.

THE MAG Quick Question
ALANG-ALANG ROOF Although the use of alang-alang as a traditional roofing system has been applied for hundreds of years in several areas of Indonesia, the neatest and strongest form is found in Bali. The blades of alang-alang thatching are constructed from Imperata cylindrica (known as elephant grass) that grows best in harsh conditions and poor ground with some of the strongest examples found at the edge of beaches and cliff tops. Balinese roofs are commonly, though not always, made with bamboo rafters — the alternative is timber which is more expensive. The rafters for alang-alang roofs have additional short rafters, set at a lower pitch, overlapping the bottom end of the main rafter. Both the main rafter and this additional rafter are finished with a bamboo.

THE MAG In Focus : Alang-alang Roof
The alang alang roof is good insulation against heat and is very attractive to look at, both inside and out. The alang-alang roof is good insulation against heat and is very attractive to look at, both inside and out. It is durable, with reports of it lasting to twenty years, although by this time it would be very thin and unattractive. More commonly it has a life span of seven or eight years. The only negative comment made about alang-alang roofs in Bali is the amount of dust from the small insects that have their life cycle in the bamboo rafters and the battens that form the spines of each individual piece of alangalang. There is very little dust, however, from the inner surface of the alang-alang as it is not attacked by insects and is hardly decomposing.

This month we spoke with Nigel Mason, a man whose roles are significant in the development of Bali’s tourism industry through his company "Bali Adventure Tours". Born and educated in England, Nigel spent his early years in Egypt. However, bitten early by the adventure bug, the 15-year-old left England in 1959. Outside business operations, Nigel is well known for his outspokenness, a ‘fight for right’ attitude, and his Harley Davidson.
Nigel Mason Can you tell us a bit about your background before you came to Bali? I migrated to Australia from England; and while in Australia, I was in recording music industry. What brought you to Bali? I flew off with a couple of mates to Bali for holiday back in 1980. But then I met this beautiful girl named Yanie and we got married. Everything started from there. We heard you saved several Sumatran elephants in 1996. How did you do that? Well, I’m not sure if it was really that heroic. Anyway, it was in my office in Bali when suddenly came this man from Sumatra, asking if I wanted to buy elephants because he didn’t know what to do with them. There were nine of them; I knew that these elephants were endangered species. So I thought, “why not relocating these 24
THE MAG Up Close: Nigel Mason
elephants to the tranquil Balinese countryside?” To cut the story short, I bought the elephants. One year later in 1997, we rescued eight more Sumatran elephants; it wasn’t an easy task to bring those big animals all the way from Sumatra to Bali. But now, we have even more elephants; including the babies. So the Elephant Safari Park should be doing very well now, especially because you have more elephants? Yes, it is doing very well now. Even so, making money through the Bali Adventure Tours and the Elephant Safari Park is not really my motivation for living in Bali. It’s my passion for preserving nature that drove me to start the whole business. Of course I see it as a good thing; because in doing so, I am able to not just preserve the nature, but also improve the lifestyle, pride and future of every Balinese on the Island. Since you’ve been living in Bali for more than 30 years now, what do you have to say about the current business development on the island? I know that a lot of people are complaining about the current Bali. But honestly speaking, the buildings actually do good things for the Balinese as they create new opportunities. I mean, people can still go out for jungle adventures in order to seek Bali's natural beauty charms.

potion – all producing various effects to the ‘victim’. Kadek Suyasa, a Balinese man who lives in the outskirt of Denpasar, told The Mag that he ‘gained’ love after seeing a Balian (Balinese shaman) in Tabanan last year. “He (the Balian) gave me some kind of herbs wrapped in coconut leaf. He then told me to keep it in my wallet,” Kadek said, adding it took only one week for him to finally get the girl he desired. “I was approaching this girl for more than a year, but I never succeeded. Thanks to the Balian, this girl has been with me for seven months now.” Aside from being wrapped in coconut leaves, another common practice for the love potion to work is by blending it with eye drop. “The person who wishes to gain love should put the eye drop in the glass of the victim before the victim drinks it. The person who drops the potion will appear stunningly irresistible to the eyes of the victim,” a Balian from Klungkung said.
“I was approaching this girl for more than a year, but I never succeeded. Thanks to the Balian, this girl has been with me for seven months now.”
28
THE MAG Feature Story: Love is in the Air
Aside from the love potion, amulet in the form of coins (kepeng in Balinese) is also largely used to gain love. Of all these coins, the most powerful ones are Arjuna coin (to be used by men) and Moon coin (to be used by women). Arjuna coin has an image of romantic hero Arjuna (the archer, the most handsome of Pandhawa brothers from Mahabharata epic), while the moon coin has an image of a new moon on it. These coins are believed to have been made by the gods and not by humans; they are found lying around the temple at night if it is the wish of the gods to present one with a blessing in the form of a partner. Another powerful amulet is called Rerajahan, drawing of a sacred image and characters on a piece of white cloth. To imbue the cloth with magical force, a set of offerings is needed accompanied by several mantras. The amulet then is kept in a little black and white checkpatterned rag.
Even more powerful than the potion and amulets is charm. This method is considered to be more powerful due to its difficulty in finding the specific medium used for the charm. The well known mediums for love charm in Balinese magic are twin coconuts or twin bananas. Even more effective are the saliva of a snake, the tears of a child, the oil from a coconut that has been dragged around by a child, or that from a coconut tree under which a pregnant woman has sat. Now, it’s really up to you to apply any of the magic listed here according to your need. You can consult with any of the Balians you can find across the island – Klungkung, Tabanan, Ubud and others. If you already have a partner and are deciding to apply this magic to someone else, please leave us out should it arise unnecessary domestic problems in your relationship in the future. And if you are still single, please remember one thing: love will always find its way in Bali. Happy Valentine’s Day! magazine.barudibali.com Feature Story: Love is in the Air

A free 24/7 ambulance for un-owned animals, responding to roadside accidents, sick animals, abandoned dogs and cats, etc. 2. A free clinic (24/7) for un-owned animals and for poor Balinese that can't afford treatment for their pets. We also respond to any emergencies if regular vets are not available. 3. An adoption program, where we adopt out free puppies, dogs, kittens and cats to good homes. Free vaccines and medical care as needed. 4. A sterilization program. We go village to village to humanely control the population of dogs and cats. We also treat the animals at the same time in each village, for all kinds of conditions such as parasites, skin diseases, etc. 5. Education programs. We visit public primary schools and teach 10-12 year-old children about animal welfare, how to care for their pets, environmental issues and about diseases such as rabies, H1N1, etc. We also run school contests where children compete for 6-month periods in caring for their pets, and schools Heart of Bali compete as well. www.heartofbali.org

An outside dog is not a problem; an unvaccinated dog is the problem. So, let's all focus on vaccinating all the dogs! We also lobby against poisoning the dogs by the cruel use of strychnine. Only rabid dogs should be euthanized and then done with proper WHO approved medicines. 2. What are your short-term and long-term goals? Our short term goal is to vaccinate 70% of all the dogs in the Gianyar region. We have received enough vaccines to make this possible and are now teaming up so we can reach this goal within the next 6 months maximum. Our long term goal is to help all regions vaccinate their dogs against rabies. And, to see Animal Welfare laws passed in Indonesia. Also, to increase our education programs in schools. We would like to see animal welfare added to the public school curriculum. We must teach our children well. We are also organizing a workshop on rabies in Bali this month, where WHO (World Health Org) and other experts will come to Bali and teach doctors, vets and scientists the latest developments in epidemiology and control of rabies. 32
THE MAG Heart of Bali : Bali Animal Welfare Association
3. Has your organization made (or is making) any progress in achieving its goals? Yes, actually lots! It's easy to focus on all there is "to do" but we have to remember how successful we already have been, and continue to be on a daily basis. We had one Bali Dog Idol contest yesterday with Q & A to the children. It was amazing to hear them answer questions about rabies, bite prevention and vaccines correctly. They are only 11 years old and they seem to know more now then most adults! They know about bird flu, H1N1 and other virus's and they know exactly what to do if they get bit by a dog or if their animal gets sick! It’s so exciting that our education program is working. We also have already vaccinated 70% of many banjars in Gianyar already, and will just keep going until rabies is eliminated! We adopt out many dogs weekly that years later continue to be healthy and happy! We think BAWA is a great success and would like to thank our local volunteers and supporters for their help. We can only do this with local support and funding. 4. Have your actions made any significant change in line with the goals and missions of your organization? Well, since rabies hit the island we have had to refocus on everything I mentioned above, so we added 20 more staff members recently. We also started thinking more deeply about how important Government laws and support will be to achieve long lasting changes, such as Animal Welfare laws which we believe are a necessity.

GETAWAY
Campuhan Ridge This getaway is certainly good news for those lazy enough to trek, yet eager to breathe the fresh air and catch the scenery off the busy main road. It is a natural pathway surrounded by shadows of the trees overlooking a temple with the sound of a running river on the background. This place is called Campuhan Ridge and it is located in Ubud. Campuhan Ridge is an easy hike and a great spot if you feel like having a closer encounter with the Balinese people and their traditional way of life. The trail all along the way is very pleasant with no really steep sections, making this an ideal walk for older people and children, even in the wet season. To make it even more pleasant, there is a particular stretch with a convenience store that makes a perfect spot to catch your breath for a while. This area is also populated by a few stray animals, the likes of cats, dogs and chicken.

After an hour or so, depending on how fast you walk, you will arrive at the pleasant village of Bangkiang Sidem, where the few people you meet greet you in the friendliest manner. Though chances are they will greet you in a local Balinese dialect, you will at least understand their wide smile as you come closer to the end of your trek. Don’t forget to smile back and say “selamat pagi” (good morning). Turning left (or westward, if you ask a Balinese) from this village, brings you back to the main road — this is your finish line. Campuhan Ridge is located near (across) Antonio Blanco Museum in Ubud. The best time to do this relaxing adventure is in the morning before the sun gets at its highest in the sky.

THE MAG Food Review: Café Bali
he name might breathe traditionalism, but Café Bali is all about the finest touch of an international food establishment. Of course, finding its home in the chic Oberoi, Café Bali knows exactly how to play a stylish role in serving Seminyak’s food enthusiasts. The atmosphere is fresh and peaceful in the morning, very busy during lunch time and glowingly vibrant at night. Building inspirational approach takes Middle Eastern, although décor is frequently transformed into white, red, gold and other color themes to avoid dullness or to match with any holiday theme and festivities. And as colorful as the décor themes, the menu is also of the supreme mixture of Asian and European dishes. Varieties
Salmon and Mango Salad
Pepes Ikan of salads, rolls, steaks, pastas and others will pleasantly entertain your tummy, while still being very reasonably priced. Most of the main courses are available in two sizes; small and large portion, making it easy to sample food or to have a good solid meal. Sampling a few of the delicacies offered on the menu, we started the meal off with Salmon and Mango Salad. The colorful mixture of the mango and salmon is made even fresher with the additional soothing green of rocket salad and goat cheese. We continued our meal with Beef Tartar. The excellent taste of this raw minced beef with French fries is certainly dedicated for those adventurous enough. Pepes Ikan arrived next on our table. The beautiful taste of the steamed fish in banana leaf served with three colors of rice is as merry as its presentation; it’s like Christmas on a plate.
Beef Tartar Just having a drink at the bar is also quite a good idea. The bar area is not really big, but still makes a cozy sitting area – especially because the music is always right. Café Bali is generally busy all the time, so you might need to reserve a table particularly during rush hours of lunch and dinner. Selamat Makan!

Go Green In Bali Bali is a beautiful island to visit and like many other tourist destinations, being such a popular spot brings many problems. One concerning problem that we at The Mag have come to notice is the ever growing environmental problems that effect this paradise island. We at The Mag hope that all travelers will take (little) time to read these points and take them to action, in order to lessen the damage. So please, keep Bali Beautiful.
1. Please don’t litter
It’s a habit we should all try to keep, and that is just “don’t litter”. If no trashcan is in sight, just keep it in your bag or pocket until you come across one, and then dispose of it correctly.
2. See some rubbish, pick it up
Add that little extra part in keeping Bali clean by picking scraps of trash ignorant people have discarded carelessly and then find the appropriate place to dispose of it.
3. Reuse or refuse plastic bags
Sometimes shops will still put your goods into plastic bags. It’s ok to refuse the plastic bags, if you’re carrying your own. You may get a strange look from the cashier, if so; just explain your trying to "Keep Bali Beautiful!”
4. Walk more!
To keep the air of Bali cleaner, it’s always better to walk. Other than being a healthy alternative, you may accidentally stumble onto a small store or unseen bar which you may have missed.
5. Eco-travelling
What better way to enjoy the beautiful scenery of nature in Bali than to take an eco-tourism tour. Many companies provide trips into the untouched wilderness of Bali, or the unspoiled coral reefs.
52
What's Happening
6. Lights out
Leaving your AC on is a huge waste of valuable electrical energy. It’s better to turn off your AC and lights before heading out.
7. It’s better to go out for dinner
It is sometimes tempting to take-away food to enjoy in the comfort of the place you are staying, but the packaging of the food adds up to the pile of trash that is thrown away.
8. Support local industries
Sending imported goods uses up much of the worlds fossil fuel resources, compared to using products already available in Bali. By supporting local industries we can also improve the economy for the community in Bali.
9. Water preservation
The amount of clean water in Bali is slowly becoming scarcer due to over use. Small things we can do to help over come the water crisis are by taking shorter showers and turning of the taps when we brush our teeth.

ACRYLICS DANCING ON CANVAS An Action Painting Event for a Good Cause
M
annekepis Restaurant in Seminyak is famed for its Jazz nights, where expatriates, tourists and locals alike come together to take in the mellow and raw sounds of Jazz and Blues. Being blessed with the success of the restaurant, the owners realized that it was time to give back. Now there are many ways of helping out the community, but Mannekepis decided to blend a good cause with jazz and art, resulting in a unique event that should not be missed by any. On the 19th of January, the world famous “King of Action Painting” Theos Sijrier, will take out his pencils to create a stunning piece of art on a huge canvas of 3 meters wide and 1.80 tall. His mood will be set by the Moko Blues Band and his strokes will be guided by the chords of sax and bass guitar. Afterwards, when Theos is satisfied with his creation, the canvas will be cut in smaller pieces (size is depending on the demand) and you will be able to get yourself a real ‘Theos’ while helping out needy children as well. The money earned with this charity event will go to the Disabled Children School project in Kerobokan, an initiative of the YAMACK foundation. For more information about this charity please visit their website www.disabledchildrenschool.com. The Action Painting Event is starting at 9 pm and to avoid disappointment, please make a reservation first at 0361 84 75 784 or 081 933 096 750.
About (Prof. Dr.) Theos Sijrier 40
THE MAG For a Good Cause
Born in The Netherlands, back in 1947, Theos was introduced to art from famous artists like Jackson Pollock at a very young age, as his mother was a devoted art collector. Theos’ interest was awoken and his artistic career was set in stone. Freshly graaduated from Rotterdam and Antwerp, Theos moved to the Big Apple and became friends with the famous Expressionist Willem de Kooning. After manifesting his artistic position in New York, Theos bonded with Joseph Beuys and closely analyzed his conceptual beliefs and works and he took in the inspiration. Theos has worked with musicians, actors and dancers across the globe and turned Action Painting into a true interactive performance. Theos’ creations are in possession of the Dutch royal dynasty, the Museum of Modern Art in San Francisco, the Clemens Sels Museum, the Winckelmann Museum and many private art collectors.

PLACES TO SEE SUNRISE & SUNSET Without a doubt, the most popular free activity for all tourists to the island is enjoying the sun. Going back home without a tanned skin would be an unforgivable sin for the visiting sun worshipers; that’s why a lot of tourists are still flocking the beach areas, even when the sun reaches its hottest point on midday. However, while you’re still in Bali, missing out the moment when the sun finally sets or rises would also be a great loss. Below are ten places where you can enjoy sunsets and sunrises.
1 Kuta
2 Seminyak
Although Kuta’s reputation currently seems to appear more on its negative sides, the sunset in the area still draws a lot of people’s attentions. The legendary “Kuta Sunset” apparently turns some things timeless: people posing with the orange-colored sky, couples holding hands, some guys walking the dogs and kids playing on the sand; all with their heads facing the sky as the sun gracefully sinking into the horizon.
Just like in Kuta, sunset in Seminyak is breathtaking. As one of the most happening places in Bali, with its chic beach-side venues, it’s a habit for most tourists to lounge off into the sunset. Yep, sexy cocktails and wines add more to the magical view of sunset in Seminyak.
3
Tanah Lot is probably the most photographed attraction in Bali. Its ship-like temple has been attracting a big number of tourists visiting the island. Aside from the temple, Tanah Lot’s “Sunset Terrace” is one of busiest spots within the compound especially during, of course, sunset. Tables and chairs are arranged to give visitors a maximum view of the sunset while having a sip of a fresh coconut juice.
Uluwatu
Uluwatu could be very packed at times during sunset. This is because Uluwatu offers its visitors a fascinating blend of sunset, kecak dance and a view of temples. Watching the classic tale of Rama and Shinta with the silhouette of the temples and sunset on the background is just splendid. 44

Tanah Lot
5 Sanur Early risers should head to Sanur to enjoy the magnificent view as the sun charmingly rises up from the horizon. The tranquility and panoramic sunrise along Sanur’s coastal line is considered as a different kind of beauty for anyone longing for peace. A relaxing jog should also be perfect during this time in Sanur.
6
Bedugul
If you can bear cold weather then Bedugul will serve as a nice spot to enjoy sunrise. Waking up early in Bedugul wouldn’t be that difficult either, as the many Muslim communities in the area will have a loud Morning Prayer call done some time at around 5am.

7
Payangan
While actually providing a glimpse of the real Bali, Payangan (near Ubud) is often missed out from the tourists’ travel plan in Bali. Most of the time, Payangan village is unnoticeable even though many pass this area on the way to Kintamani. Anyway, watching the sun rises from a ricefield in Payangan is spectacular.
8 Ubud Ubud is a wonderful place to walk around on foot while enjoying the view of the busyness of local warungs, restaurants, art shops and galleries. However, the real magic of Ubud can be seen off the beaten track, a little bit further away from the crowd during sunrise. Yep, a sunrise walk along the sides of Ubud’s ricefields and hills is breathtaking.
10
Canggu
Sunset over the beach in Canggu is another thing you shouldn’t miss during your stay in Bali. Echo Beach is probably the most favorable spot to observe the view of sunset in Canggu, where variety of eating areas and tables spill out onto a beach side buff.
9 Kintamani
+ Bonus - Gili Trawangan
The Bali northern village of Kintamani is one of the spots to go if you feel like escaping from the island’s southern crowd. Evening in Kintamani is cool; but when you are already there during evening time, it is a good idea to spend a night in Kintamani. Make sure that you’ll get up very early the next morning to climb the Batur volcano. It is a perfect spot just to sit and watch the sunrise; a perfect morning you will never forget.
As this location is not quite in Bali, it's added as a Bonus Spot to the list, as we think it is one of the greatest sunsets. Plus, it will only take you two hours to get there, so we think it is worth the effort. From the south and west part of Gili Trawangan - Lombok, you can witness a spectacular range of colors, while the sun sets right behind Mount Agung on Bali; giving you a view of the magical island from right across the ocean. Truly spectacular.

BARGAINING IN BALI 1. No matter how much the vendors give as the opening price, you have to bargain for as much as half (or even less) of the price. 2. It is better for you to go to the shop that has everything: t-shirts, shorts, wood handicrafts, etc. By doing a onestop shopping, which means you will buy quite a lot, it is easier for you to get a bigger discount. 3. Try not to be not so apparent that you really want the thing you are looking at on a shop; the vendors are not stupid and can smell your desire, thus will take the advantage by putting the price high.
BEFORE ENTERING A TEMPLE, PLEASE REMIND YOURSELF: 1.To respect the place and its people: it is sacred, so do not make noise or damages and act normal. 2.That a woman who is having her period, is not allowed to enter the temple. 3. To not walk in front of a praying person.

4. Since there are ranges of shops offering pretty much the same things, you can always walk away from one shop to another if a deal cannot be reached. But walk slowly. Normally, if you offer a reasonable price on a bargain, in which the vendor can still make some profits and the price is good for you, the vendor would call you back to his/her shop as you walk away. 5. Tell the vendor that if he/she gives you a good price, than you will tell your other friends to shop from him/her. 6. Know the martket prices, or, pretend you do. By saying “I’ve seen this product before much cheaper” will probably lead to a cheaper price. 7. Have fun and stay friendly. Bargaining is part of the culture and it should be a fun activity.
4. That a priest is very important, so whenever he is praying, don’t sit higher then him and don’t bother him with your flash from your camera. 5. That you should also not take flashing pictures of other people praying. 6. To wear a sarong and a ribbon when you attend a ceremony (those are often provided to you when necessary).

here are many reasons to visit Bali; amazing culture, friendly people, great cuisine and beautiful locations. But this is not all the island of the gods has to offer; there are also fantastic waves breaking around the whole island. From beach breaks to barreling reef breaks, Bali has attracted surfers from all over the world since the sixties for good reason; the island is a surf mecca. The south side, ‘the Bukit’ has barreling left handers rolling past the cliffs and consistent trade winds blowing every day from April till October. All along Kuta beach there are fun beach breaks for beginners and advanced surfers alike. North of Kuta offers playful lefts and rights all year round and there are some amazing, barreling rights to be found on the east coast. It is always hard to explain to non-surfers why surfing is such an amazing experience and why surfers travel all around the globe to devote their life to chasing waves. When you paddle for a wave, when it picks you
up and you feel that the wave is taking over, it’s such an extraordinary feeling. When you surf you’re being pushed by an energy developed kilometers away, an energy about to reach the end of its journey. The happiness you feel when you or even your friends get a good ride, that’s unique. So for anyone who has never surfed and would like to experience this feeling, you’re in the right place. All you have to do is to go to one of the many surf schools in Kuta, get out there and catch your first wave. Kuta beach is one of the best beaches to learn to surf in the world! Just be sure to respect the rules so you won’t endanger yourself and/or others. For the surfers who are reading this; rainy season has started which means that the trade winds have stopped blowing consistently. We’re are going to have to settle for fewer swells and early morning surfs. The upside of the rainy season is that there are usually fewer people in the water, however surfers still seem to flock to popular spots like Uluwatu and Canggu. So for those of you who want to get away from the crowds and have the time to travel a little further, go east and have fun. -Alissa-

Bali Surfspots Medewi Medewi is a fun wave for all surfers. It can be a bit fat, but has its day. Come early to avoid onshore winds. This spot handles bigger swells also. Balian Balian is a swell magnet and a quiet spot in North Bali. This break is getting more crowded as more accommodation is build daily. Its playful lefts and rights are great for beginners and advanced surfers alike. This spot doesn't like bigger swells. Canggu & Perenan Canggu always gets more swell than Kuta beach. It actually consists of a few different breaks; The right breaks better on a mid to high tide and is a great performance wave. The sandbank is better on a lower tide and is in front of the restaurants, it's fun to watch the surfers hit the lip whilst enjoying the delicious food. Canggu is becoming a very popular tourist spot, the sunday barbeque gets more packed every week. Kuta Reef Kuta Reef is an exposed reef break that is quite consistent. There are a few breaks here: Airports rights and left, Middles and Kuta reef. MayĂ?October (dry season) is the best time of the year for waves here. It gets crowded due to its close proximity to Kuta. Belangan Belangan is known for its longs peeling walls. It does get sectiony, so you have to race a bit. Belangan handles big swells and can offer good barrels on the right direction. On the wrong swell direction, it tends to close out. It's a beautiful beach, great to spend the day! Dreamland Dreamland was famous because it was a 'dreamy' spot, with the building of 'New Kuta beach' the dream became a nightmare. A beautiful green cliff made place for concrete jungle, the worst example of socalled progress. The wave is still there, a nice
THE MAG
peak and a fun beach break. There's a great shore break on a bigger swell, where many a tourist has lost their top or bottom (or almost drowned...) Bingin Bingin is a consistent, mechanical barrel machine. It's a short wave with a very small take off spot so if hassling is not your thing, it will be quite hard to get waves here. Impossibles Impossibles gets fun on a big swell. Its located between Bingin and Padang Padang, if you are sick of dealing with the crowds at either of those two places you can paddle to Impossibles and get some long walls. Padang Padang Padang Padang only starts to work when a big swell is running. It offers an amazing barrel but breaks in front of trocks, so experts only! It is an easy paddle out through the channel and one of the world-class waves in Bali. Uluwatu There are 4 different sections at famous Uluwatu: Temples is a hollow wave which works on the mid to high tide. The peak can offer a nice barrel and is right in line with the cave. Racetracks is the low tide section, it's superfast and gets seriously shallow. Outside Corner is an world class wave which won't even start breaking unless the swell is at least in the 8 foot range. Nyang Nyang Nyang Nyang beach is a 'secret' spot, it's not very easily accessible which it's why it's usually uncrowded. This beach is like a secret paradise for every surfer. Green Ball Green Ball is a left and a right, situated at the bottom of a steep cliff. No worries going down but after you have been surfing for a couple of hours the return trip is quiet challenging.
Nusa Dua To get to this reef you have to drive into the hotel area itself and then weave your way south. There's no channel which makes getting caught inside on a big swell quite annoying. There are a couple of other good waves in this area so it pays to do a bit of exploring. Sri Lanka In the northern part of Nusa Dua lays Sri Lanka, a bowly right which breaks into a deep water channel. This break is better on a bigger swell but is shifty. Sanur Reef Sanur Reef is a right and considered another world class wave. It's the local break of many expats and locals so gets very busy. The wave breaks better on a mid to high tide and is usually better in the early morning or in the rainy season (November-April). Padang Galak Padang Galak is a reliable rivermouth beach break north of Sanur. The break is quite popular, but only works under certain conditions. Keramas Another well known wave, which received a lot of media attention the last few years. It has a nice barrel after take-off which turns into a wally lip. This break is very popular with visiting and local pro's and if you don't want to deal with them in the water it is nice to watch them surf from the warung right in front of the break. Padangbai Padangbai has the flat bottomed mixed reef and sandy bottom with some wally waves. This break needs a bit of swell. Kuta Beach The warm water and sandy bottom make Kuta beach one of the best places in the world to learn to surf. Also for advanced surfers this beach is very popular, you can often see the locals busting airs on the punchy lefts and rights.
Kuta/Tuban/Legian Kuta Kuta is dedicated to those seeking fun and sun in affordable ways. The area consists of busy laneways lined with bars and restaurants, basic accommodations and various stalls selling multitudes of items. Although often considered the ‘absolute ugliest’ area of the island due to its mixbag tourism projects in combination with rampant commercialism, Kuta still manages to retain a slice of Balinese charm. The smell of incense wafts down the crowded gangs and offerings of brightly colored flower petals are laid out each morning to appease the gods.
THE MAG
Legian The current Legian is packed with venues that turn this used-to-be sleepy hollow area into a spot that knows no rest with almost non-stop activities and crowds. More and more amusement centers like nightclubs, restaurants and shops are now making Legian a vibrant area that never sleeps. Tuban Being a part of Kuta, Tuban doesn’t really share the loud noises and crowds of Kuta’s main party scenes. Villas and fine restaurants in this area are not really seen from the main road as they mostly take place beachside.

Seminyak/ Petitenget/ Canggu Seminyak Owing to its high density of upscale shopping, combined with the clustering of many fine-dining establishments, Seminyak has rapidly become one of the most wellknown tourist areas in Bali. In addition to a few commercial strips with popular and lively restaurants, bars and good crafts, furniture, and antique shops, there are a few notable establishments that have earned numerous titles as the best venue or party spot in Bali in various magazines. Land and accommodation prices are amongst the highest in Bali and plenty of luxury spas and hotels abound.
THE MAG
Petitenget & Canggu Petitenget is where the chic ambiance of Seminyak continues. Although recently there have not been as many happening scenes as in Seminyak, emergence of a number of new stylish venues in Petitenget should indicate that this area would serve as the extension of Baliâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s southern fashionable playground. Canggu, on the other hand, is where the ricefields are still widely spread and clearly seen, even due to its close proximity with Seminyak and Petitenget. A number of luxurious villas can be found within Canggu area â&#x20AC;&#x201C; most of them are blessed with the tranquil view of the ricefields.

Sanur/ Jimbaran/ Nusa Dua Sanur
One of the most pleasant aspects of Sanur is its large expanse of beachfront. A footpath that covers about five kilometers allows visitors to casually stroll and explore, stopping when they feel like it for a drink or snack at one of the many beach side restaurants. A large reef shelters Sanurâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s white-sand beach, resulting in low-key surf that is ideal for beginner surfers and families with small children. However, swimming is only possible at high tide as low tide exposes the reef. Wellstocked bars and decently priced food and drinks have turned this area into a popular nighttime destination as well.
Jimbaran
Nusa Dua
Some of the most luxurious hotels in the world find their home in Nusa Dua. Yet, unknown to even some of its loyal visitors, Nusa Dua actually offers more than just ranks of five-star hotels and up-market restaurants and shops. For instance, the thousands who stay in the luxurious hotels within the Nusa Dua complex and Tanjung Benoa are largely unaware of a beautiful white-sand beach located just five minutes away on the southern edge of the peninsula, named Geger beach. Immediately north of Nusa Dua enclave is the peninsula of Tanjung Benoa that includes less exclusive hotels and Benoa village. As a mixed culture area, visitors can see a mosque and Chinese and Hindu temples in close proximity.
Although Jimbaran now houses some of the finest luxury hotels in the world, its original color as a fishing village still remains. Unlike many other coastal areas in Bali that have wholly converted from fishing villages into tourist spots crowded with umbrellas, hawkers and surfboards, Jimbaran exploits its natural potential as a fishing village with the establishment of row upon row of seafood restaurants serving that dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s catch of fresh fish and crustaceans. Jimbaran is now known to be a haven of the finest seafood (both raw and processed) in Bali. THE MAG

Nusa Lembongan Nusa Lembongan is one of Baliâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s three small offshore islands (the other two are Nusa Penida and Nusa Ceningan) with tourist infrastructure; thus making it a popular destination for visitors to Bali. Lembongan is a destination to experience the abundance of marine life, coral beds, drop off walls and exhilarating drift dive. Lembonganâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s white-sand beaches and clear water are just perfect for visiting sun worshippers. Unlike most beaches in Bali, there are no hawkers in Nusa Lembongan, with the sole exception of the boat guys who wander along the beach in the morning and ask you if you would like to join the snorkeling or fishing trips. Getting to or from Nusa Lembongan is easy due to the numerous options. From Sanur, visitors are provided with several fast boat services as well as the traditional jukung boats (wooden boats). Alternatively, travelers can depart from Benoa Harbour, any of the Gili islands, or even charter their own helicopter.

The Gilis Lombok’s three sister islands of Gili Trawangan, Gili Meno and Gili Air are currently amongst the top alternative destinations for tourists visiting Bali. The three are tiny coral-fringed islands blessed with white sandy beaches and crystalclear water swarming with an array of coral fish. Known as budget stopovers in the old days, the Gilis with their rapidly increasing popularity now have diversified accommodations ranging from luxury villas to rustic yet chic bungalows for rent. Oceanfront restaurants and bars are also scattered around. Water activities, of course, are some of the highlights on the must-do list during a stay in these islands. Each Gili has its own character and charm; Trawangan is known as the party scene, Meno is very mellow (perfect for honeymooners) and Air’s ambiance falls somewhere between the two. The three islands, very fortunately, are pleasantly

free from air pollution due to the absence of motorized land vehicles. Transportation means vary from the traditional cidomo (horse-drawn carts), horses and bicycles. However, it’s important for you to note that the Gilis are homes to Muslim locals. Although bikinis are tolerable, it is advised for you to avoid any excessive skin displays – including public affection displays. You also need to tolerate the loud call for early Morning Prayer at around four or five in the morning. Restaurants and bars will run as normal during the fasting month of Ramadan. The Gili islands are easily accessible direct from Bali with the current fast boat services available. Ferry services from Padangbai to Lombok run 24 hours a day. Morning flights from Bali’s Ngurah Rai Airport to Lombok’s Selaparang Airport are also available daily.
