a day in ubud

a room with a view. the rice fields outside of my homestay.
a morning at the monkey forest. yes, that is really a monkey on my back! adorable but fiesty little creatures.
an afternoon at the impressive Neka Museum which boasts the work of Arie Smit, a Dutch painter who greatly influenced the art movement in Bali.
by nightfall, following a meal at my favorite restaurant Nomad, I experienced a traditional Kecak dance in which many locals participate. the people of Bali are so filled with spirituality!
