Beautiful Bali. From relaxing in the pool with my book, to writing on the patio as a thunderstorm rages. Awesome!
I arrived yesterday (11/3), a brave solo traveller in these uncertain times of a world pandemic. So far there are no confirmed cases of the virus in Bali – fingers crossed this continues! It’s very quiet here due to the downturn in traveling across the world. The balinese people are very aware of the virus and advise me about all the precautions I should be taking (e.g. washing hands frequently), but there’s not a sense of panic. My flight from Australia was full, so obviously a lot of Australians agree.
I’ve managed to write for several hours so far, even though I’ve only been here for one day! Well done me! I’ve also managed to meet some locals, have a massage, and move villas (there was a stuff-up with my booking so I had to stay in a different villa for one night).
The environment here is amazingly conducive to work. And afternoon naps! We’ll see just how much I get done by the end of the trip.
