Thank goodness we still had a few days in Singapore to help with the depressive state from leaving Bali. Having not spent much time in Singapore at the start of our trip, we were really able to tire ourselves out with all the site seeing we had to cram in which helped us feel ready to come home for some rest! We arrived before midday and as we weren't able to check in to our hotel till 1pm we headed straight out for a wander. We hadn't intended it and clearly di...

We tried to arrange our last 4 days in Seminyak efficiently to allow us to do everything that we wanted, and also enjoy some relaxing beach time. We arranged a day at Kuta beach to meet our surfing instructors with the intention of practicing our new skills, but unfortunately the waves weren’t playing ball that day so we didn’t get to. We still ended up having a really fun day there sitting under the trees with the guys, drinking beer and listening to whoever...

The next day we had planned to spend the day in Canggu. We’ve heard mixed reviews about this place so we went with an open mind.

It was boiling hot so obviously we wanted to cool off i...

The lovely Harry had offered to take us from Ubud to Seminyak so he picked us up from our Ubud hotel at 10am and took us to our first stop which was Bali’s version of the Grand Canyon. It turns out that it was more of a gorge walk through a river and we had just washed our hair that morning. So we were like “sorry Harry, not today. We’ve just washed our hair”. We’re honest like that. We also weren’t dressed appropriately to get wet and it meant unpack...

We were pretty sad to be leaving the super chilled Nusa Islands, but excited for some change of scenery in Ubud. It’s more inland so we’ve not had any beach days here, but there’s lots to keep you busy. We were driven to our hotel straight after getting off the fast boat in Sanur which took nearly an hour. We’re staying a fair way from the centre but it’s lovely accommodation. You have to walk down huge stairs to get down to our simple but quaint doub...
