I left Lombok to return to Bali to join yes another yoga retreat with the founder of Anusara yoga (the yoga i have been training in already in Bali). I signed upto 3 days due to the expense & not unsure if i would connect to the teacher! The location of the retreat was in a beautiful water palace called Tirta Gangga. Once again on my 3rd day the heavens opened, it has rained alot more than i expected in my 2 months in Bali & Lombok, apperently the rainy season came really late this year! Unfortunately we were practising in a roofed platform but it had no walls around the sides, so with the v.heavy rains we ended up getting a little wet whilst trying to do yoga!
I spent the rest of the week with Sua my friend who i met in the ashram in India & we then hung out with 2 lovely dutch girls who i met in Lombok (Anne & Charlotte). We had a few fun nights out in the quite tacky Kuta, Bali! We then went upto the mountains in Bali for a day, to a place called Munduk. I was so glad we went here as it restored my faith in Bali, we didnt get any hassle & it felt a v.chilled out place. Although we were only there for a short amount of time we managed to go on a short hike through the rice fields which was beautiful.
When i was flying out of Bali i did feel excited to leave, 2 months was enough. I dont think i will go back to Bali unless it was to teach! I would like to visit Sumatra but I deffo dont feel that Bali was a place for me now! I missed India alot whilst there & wished i could get a roti & curry & missed the cows on the street etc!
