Soan Galuh beach

Soan Galuh beach is my source of inspiration. When I feel like I need inspirations in my clay work, I would just get my motorbike and drive here. It's rocky beach, cave cliffs, the black sand beach and all the plants and tiny creatures that most inspired me. I just love it here!

It was a quiet fisherman beach, you can walk as far as you want without any distractions. You can even just sit and play in the cave.

People start to recognize the place now and getting it viral online, so I thought I might post it here too.

Enjoy the picture after the jump!

Kintamani with Mount Batur view

 When you drive up through Ubud towards Kintamani, you must make a stop at the Gaya Gelato lab up Jalan Raya Sayan.

I mean, all you hear about the gelato is a fact!

The twins agree that gelato is super yumm

to Kintamani and we arrived,

Kintamani is a village on the western edge of the larger caldera wall of Mount Batur. It is a north-south road of Penelokan that is used as a stopping area to view the Mount Batur. In Kintamani there is a temple called Pura Tuluk Biyu (we didnt go there); it is home for a 1000 year old "Rites of Peace" stone tablets. The origin of Balinese dog breed is from here too. The Kintamani dog is aligned with Australian Dingo or the New Guinea singing dog (we spot some but didnt took picture).

The Mt Batur spotting cafe is called Akasa Cafe.

Kid was WOWed by the view and had taken some pictures with everyones camera. He is only 4 y.o.

For some of you that are new to the terms PPKM; it is short of Pemberlakuan Pembatasan Kegiatan Masyarakat.

Early this year the restricted activities was reinforced as the covid-19 pandemic are spreading widely due to a big people movement.

As a harriettes that runs with our group of people, this is sad.
