I bought that painting in Bali.


I enjoyed Bali, it was the most corrupt place I have ever been, in a nice way.

I am unsure how it happened, but when I arrived at the tiny airport I had some local money on top of my passport, I walked up and down the long queue to enter, then it happened, some dude in a uniform said "express Mr" I asked what he meant, he pointed at my money, it worked out to 6 GBP and that was all, I handed over the money and my passport, and 2 minutes later I was in.
Where else in the world can you buy in so easily? Well Cambodia, yes, but that is another story.

I had a superb time on or in Bali, locals were friendly, the idea of a cafe was to say the least amusing. At a cafe local women that work there drink all your beer and you pay for it, like bar girls in Thailand, minus paying bar or sex.

The Australians all want to fight each other, so drinking with them is a big NO NO.

And they are all skint at airports and beg for money to escape.

Speaking of escape, I met two Aussie gals at the beach one day, it was an all inclusive beach, fenced off, by rights I should not have been there, in 14 days they had never left that beach, or their hotel, boring to say the least.

I had travelled the entire island, had some crazy days, as small as it is, it does get busy with cars, so I rode my motorbike on the path, the locals followed me, boy was it fun, but not for the beach whales.

It is the stuff dreams are made of, and as much fun as you want to make it.

I made 7600 gbp from that trip selling art I bought there, bows and arrows, blow pipes.

Life is like a dream, it is as good as you make it.
Then the rona arrived, here it is, well it is as good as any alleged scientist shows it as.

My biggest dream is visiting Japan, especially KYOTO the center of government in the past. I think visiting it can represent knowing Japan as a whole from the past and present, eating traditional food and wearing kimono and living in a traditional Japanese house for some time and traveling to various interesting places for sure. pleasant

I was shocked to read your first sentence.. but it's the truth.

My most unforgettable experience was when I was chosen to represent the office to visit Japan for 10 days in October 2017. I had the opportunity to visit Kumamoto province and learn about the agricultural and livestock technology they apply. Besides that, I also had the opportunity to visit historical places and learn about their culture.

I hope I have a chance to visit Japan again.

Thailand is way more corrupt, you can get away with anything there if you have the money to buy your way out of trouble, so Bali pales in comparison.

UK is getting just as corrupt too. So no matter where we go, seems those in power are easy to bribe, with bits of paper called money, still enjoyed Bali apart from all the rubbish on the beaches.

Superb friendly people all the same.

Yes, garbage everywhere is still a problem that is still being solved.
The beach will be the final shelter for all the garbage. Especially in the rainy season like now, a lot of garbage will collect on the beach. Like on Kuta beach.

They seem to put it into piles from what I noticed, then the sea rises, takes it all back out, then brings it back again, weird way of dealing with it.
