But I just trying to make a statement here. Sex drugs and polution are
also Bali, same as beautifull temples, beaches and great people. I am part Indonesian, born in europe and have been visiting Indonesia for about 12 years now. Having my travell basekamp in Bali for about 10 years I've seen it change from paradise into an Ibiza substitute for Aussies. But I still love it like I was born there. The people writing about Bali saying it is a dirty f#$%ed up drugs pit are absolutely right.
Don't tell them they are stupid tourists cause they have as much right to tell their stories and to be respected as the over tipping, money on junk wasting, looking outover the Hyatt's "beautifull" park from their 5* "lets kill another fishing village" maffia(read presidential) hideout.
PPFF.. My appologies to Mh for hitting on him. But let stay realistic.
kind regards Raoul
