bali round 2

DISPOSABLE DIARIES

BALI, INDONESIA

Bali was a breath of fresh air. I went for the first time last summer, and I fell in love, dreaming of when I would get to go back someday.  Never in a million years did I think I would be back so soon, but if you know me, you know I live by two rules and they are:

  1. Say yes to spray tans

  2. Say yes to cheap flights

So when we got an alert for a cheap flight to Bali, Tristen and I gathered up our best friends from high school and made it happen. 

9 months later and we were BACK BABY!!! And I couldn’t believe my eyes!! So much had changed! In so many ways it seemed like Bali had transformed into one big photo op destination. All of our favorite places from last summer had completely changed to become more “instagrammable” which, isn’t necessarily a bad thing, if you have the right mindset

And we did.

When I say this trip was a breath of fresh air, it really was. I hardly took my camera out. In fact, I left it at our air bnb for three days straight. (GASPS HEARD FROM INFLUENCERS ROUND THE WORLD) When I travel, I am always behind a lens. I'm so caught up in capturing every moment, so I don't miss a thing, but feel like sometimes, I end up missing more that way. This time was different. I think it had to do with the group we were with, but also maybe because it was my second time in Bali, so I wasn’t obsessing over capturing everything. I was just taking it all in. I've also been traveling for 5 months non stop and I am so over taking pictures LOLLLL

Luckily, I brought my handy dandy disposables with me everywhere I went, so I still snapped some good moments on film.

You know how I feel about these babies, and I love that you love them as much as I do.

So here is the bali disposable diary!! love you all.

From our 8 our layover in China. We were running on 3 hours of sleep, and chicken nuggets. But we were ready.

Seconds after we got off the plane, right after landing in Denpasar. These are the faces of weary travelers. With serious cankles. 

This is without a doubt the best beach in the entire world. Yep. I went there. And yep. I ACTUALLY WENT THERE!!! It’s on our favorite island, Nusa Penida. A 45 minute boat ride from Bali, and about a 45 minute scooter ride through the jungle, on the gnarliest roads you can imagine. Once you get to the top, you gotta hike all the way down. It’s scary, it’s exhausting, but it’s worth it to experience what waits for you at the bottom. After about an hour-hour and 1/2 of hiking the steep mountain, we ran with the remaining energy our bodies had left and threw ourselves into the water. That was a MOMENT. Because it’s so hard to get to the beach, and because you are on a remote island, you pretty much get the whole thing to yourself. If you go to bali, you HAVE to go here. It’s worth every swear word you’ll scream on the way down. 

My faaaavorite road in Bali. This is the "shortcut" in canguu. Go at sunset. Thank me later.

BALI IS ON ANOTHER LEVEL WITH THEIR MERCH GAME YAH YAH GANG GANG
