The first thing that comes to mind when I see 'Potato Head', is this guy. An odd name for a beach club but definitely one you'll remember. The Potato Head Lounge is located just off the beach in Seminyak. It is a little tricky to find the first time you go there, as there is... Continue Reading →
Uluwatu temple and one of the best beaches in Bali
South of Bali, you'll find Uluwatu Temple and a handful of beautiful hidden beaches. Some are a little hard to find and do involve some scooter off roading, but they are totally worth it. The drive to Uluwatu from Kuta is a bit scary as it's on all of the main roads but it's much... Continue Reading →
Tegenungan waterfall – don’t worry be sexy, but not naked
A quick search on any social media for waterfalls in Bali, and you will soon come across the Don't worry be sexy, but not naked sign at the Tegenungan waterfall. I would say it is easily the most popular waterfall to visit in Bali. I came here last year with friends and in comparison to... Continue Reading →
A Bali massage for the over polite, awkward person
If my budget stretched far enough and I could justify having one everyday, I would definitely get a massage every day. The traditional Bali massage is a bit strange but very good. They perform a technique where they thump you and hit their closed hands on you. It makes a loud clapping sound so the... Continue Reading →
The ins and outs of renting a moped/scooter in Bali
Let's start with the most important thing of all... AN INTERNATIONAL DRIVERS LICENCE This is like a hall pass if the police pull you over - if you're a tourist they most definitely will.

Bali road trip on Honda GL150 and scooter, Kuta, Pulikan, Gilimamuk, Singjara, Mt Batur, Ubud
I've heard a few people say that there isn't a lot on the west coast of Bali. I've not really found much online from people travelling that way either. But we thought we would check it out any way. There are some beautiful sights to see but I must admit, it does get more quiet... Continue Reading →
Renting a custom bike in Bali, Indonesia
After riding around on scooters for a few days we began to notice more and more tourists on custom bikes. There is no way that they owned these bikes so we did a little searching around. Renting a custom bike can cost you 150,0000 - 300,0000 depending on what you're looking for and where you... Continue Reading →
Our night in a hut, a hidden gem on Air BnB
We havn't been to the west side of Bali and although everyone says there's not much there we thought we'd check it out anyway. We booked an air bnb on the beach front called Matahari surfers shack. From the photos it didn't look like much so we didn't mind paying £5 each for it. No... Continue Reading →
Meeting and treating the street dogs in Bali, Indonesia
For my birthday I thought I would celebrate by feeding the street dogs in Bali. I fed around five dogs that evening and it was great. So I decided to try and feed 25 dogs to mark my 25th - Project 25 was born. Mission and video compilation complete. Check out the full video compilation... Continue Reading →
Scrimp, but not on a poncho.
Spend that little extra on a decent poncho, seriously. I bought myself a poncho worth the equivalent of 30p and I was very chuffed with myself. Not only had I scrimped to the maximum, I was prepared for the rain. Bring it on I thought. The first time I used it, it was absolutely fine.... Continue Reading →
Bali birthday!
I had a fantastic day today. As it's rainy season I really didn't expect a lot but I can honestly say this is the best birthday I've had... EVER. So the day began with this, (note the take away coffee cup on the left). As I'm still pretty jet lagged all I wanted to do... Continue Reading →
