Soul Searching

At the suggestion of my wonderful hostess I decided to motorbike up into eastern Bali for a couple of days. everyone here said that it is amazingly beautiful, and they were right. The first stop was a place called Chandidasa, and the hotel/bungalows were called Ida’s Homestay. There were three sizes of bungalow, tiny, medium (with two floors and an ocean view), and large. I opted for the medium for 16 USD a night. The small was REALLY small, kind of claustrophobic. each bungalow had an outdoor toilet and shower (cold water only). Overall extremely charming.
Then I proceeded further up the coast to a place called “good karma” run by a jovial guy by the name of Bobbo. This was an hour and a half ride from Chandidasa - basically on the edge of nowhere, but boy was it spectacular. I wanted to stay another day but figured out late in the day that it was Friday not Wednesday, and that I needed to be in the clinic the next day. So it just wasn’t in the cards.
I drove back to Ubud in three hours flat, making very good time. Dodging dogs, goats, pigs, chickens, women with chickens, even women driving motor scooters while holding onto live chickens! All this and being hyper aware that my helmet was staying on just by virtue of my very large head LOL!
Anyway, I made it back after a much needed break (I think I’ve done close to 50 treatments in the week I’ve been here - as much as a normal week in NY). I have clinic tonight. We’ll see how it goes.
