Hi, I just wanted to tell you about the most amazing trip I have ever made in all of my travels. Bali...... it's a long way, but so very worth the long hike. I left Honolulu, and flew to Shanghai, it was great to stretch, get a tea at Starbucks in the airport, just enough time to get one of those Chinese name stamps I have always wanted. You know the red ink stampers that every Chinese artist uses...I got to see him carve it right there at the airport, sipping my chai. $50 dollars but well worth it. Haaa It's probably like 20$ in town. I ran into 2 people backpackers from Maui and sat and chatted with them for a bit. You meet the nicest people on the road.

If you love Arts & Crafts, exotic locations, jewelry, and fabric-batiking in particular, you will go crazy in Bali. The shopping monster will have a hold of you. The artisans you will get to meet, and watch in the creative process go back generations in their families. You will have access to places most don't even get to enter. My suggestion is to take another bag inside of your regular suitcase. It's very warm in Bali so keep your clothing light. Cottons are the best, you WILL sweat, keep well hydrated, and you will be fine. It might be a good idea to bright a light jacket in case of rain, but keep it light, remember this is tropical rain and still hot.

Bali is a photographer and artists dream come true. The images above are just a few of the hundreds and hundreds that I took. Just walking down the street to an ATM you will probably come across a temple, flowers, and a sight you've never seen before. The land is rich in moments to be captured. This coming Nov. I will be escorting a group for Craftours again, details are below.....for more info go to.....​https://www.craftours.com/educators/deb-haugen.php
