on another app I wrote I’m the only guy in Ubud not dressed like Jesus. French but not arrogant. I’ve semi retired from globetrotter/navigator after 150 countries in 20 years

been visiting Bali for 25 years… it has changed a lot! Visit Ubud before they turn the last temple into a lululemon shop

If you wish to stay more than 1/2 nights I much appreciate if you take the time to chat before your arrival 🙏

Cosa posso offrire ai padroni di casa

I can introduce you to my Balinese friends: mask carver, topeng dancer, puppeteer and priest, and show you hidden places.

I can also take you to visit authentic craft men if you want to bring a mask, a bronze or rattan back home at a non touristy price.
