Bali Day 2 – Sekumpul Waterfall, Handara Golf & Resort Gates, and Ulun Danu Bratan Temple

November 19, 2023

Bali is known for its Instagram-worthy waterfalls and they have way too many to choose from! I narrowed down to a few in Northern Bali: Banyumala Waterfall, Banyu Wana Amertha Waterfall, Sekumpul Waterfall. It was just not possible to visit all 3 because from Ubud to Northern Bali took around 2 hours each way. I… Read More Bali Day 2 – Sekumpul Waterfall, Handara Golf & Resort Gates, and Ulun Danu Bratan Temple

November 11, 2023

Originally, we planned to go Kanto Lampo Waterfall first thing in the morning but according to Google Maps, it was temporarily closed. I asked our driver, Putu on WhatsApp and he confirmed that too so changed in plan: Bali Swing instead. We got ready by 6:45 AM and walked down to the main road to… Read More Bali Day 1 – Bali Swing, Rice Terrace, Tirta Empul Temple, Monkey Forest, and Ubud Palace

Bali – the trip that I have been postponing since 2017…6 years later, we finally made it there. It was a long way from Boston totaling 27 hours in travel time (Boston to Hong Kong 15 hours, 7 hours layover in Hong Kong, and then a 5-hour flight to Bali).

I said to Jason: OMG, the balloons are here! I walked over to Judy, Jeffrey, and Peter’s room (next to our… Read More Cappadocia: Sky Filled with Hot Air Balloons and Derinkuyu Underground City

Cappadocia: Valleys of Rock Formations

July 30, 2023

The 1 hour 25 min flight from Istanbul to Kayseri was comfortable and they even served a hot sub with melted cheese and beef! I wish the US domestic flights (those coast to coast 6 hours flights) do that. There are two airports that are in the Cappadocia area – Kayseri and Nevşehir Kapadokya. I… Read More Cappadocia: Valleys of Rock Formations

Morning Hike at Memories Aicha Luxury Camp, Wadi Rum

July 1, 2023

Waking up with a view like this, was I still dreaming? After all, I got less than 3 hours of sleep since stargazing. The Mars-like landscape was unbelievable except…for the bulldozer. I was up for the sunrise but the sun was over the mountain on the right side so I didn’t get to see it.… Read More Morning Hike at Memories Aicha Luxury Camp, Wadi Rum

Early Morning in Petra and Mars-like Landscape of Wadi Rum

June 24, 2023

The same drill as yesterday, quick breakfast at 6 and then straight to the Treasury as fast as we could! The camels were there this morning so I took a quick snap. The Bedouins approached us to the “best view” and after rounds of bargaining, we got the price down to 50 JD for the… Read More Early Morning in Petra and Mars-like Landscape of Wadi Rum
