Bye Bye Bali

The last 4 days I had in Bali were not the most relaxed ever. The hotel I stayed at (The Breezes) should be avoided like the plague. Way too noisy with drunken Australians and they really don't have a clue how to run a hospitality business. Luckily the GM of my 'regular' Sofitel allowed me to use their facilities during the day. I am covered with either mosquito bites (hotel's reading) or bedbug bites (my reading). Thank God I am not too itchy.

I have also decided that I have had a Bali overdose in the last 5 years. I need a change of scenery, especially since it is now extremely busy here once again. Good for the locals, bad for the regulars. It also changed a little. It reminds me more of India now. Traffic is an absolute pain and I have now realized that by staying in 5-star hotels I have been missing some of the complete incompetence that is also present here.


Balinese traffic

The problem is that I really liked Timor Leste and the best way to get there is via Bali. Ah well, I will take one for the team!

I am now in the lounge at Denpasar airport. It will take me around 19 hours to get home. Not too bad. Tomorrow at 15:00 I will collect my new Mini Convertible. I fully expect the sun to be shining. See you later!
