Bali bucketlist stay ✨

Staying in one of these magical bamboo villas is a perfect way to spend a few days in the Balinese jungle.

It’s located in Sidemen; a small town in the mountains just east of Ubud. Surrounded by rainforest, waterfalls and rice terraces, this is the perfect place to enjoy some peace and quiet.

Sidemen is what I always pictured Ubud was going to be before visiting, yet I was shocked to realise it’s a really busy city 😂 So if you’re looking for that quiet, local small town Bali feel, I highly recommend going that bit further to Sidemen and staying in these beautiful bamboo huts.

We slept amongst nature listening to the sound of the jungle and the river that ran right along our villa.

It was pure bliss. Just don’t forget that it actually gets a bit cooler in the mountains, and wetter! Pack accordingly 😂

Heading to Bali & need to get some work done? Here are my recommendations in the three most popular parts of Bali:

Share this with any digital nomads you know heading to Bali

🏄🏼‍♀️ Canggu free co-working spaces:
- Tribal Hostel
- Boheme Canggu
- Valle Bali
- ZIN Cafe
- NOAH Cafe

🏖️ Uluwatu free co-working spaces:
- Habitat village
- Ours Uluwatu

🌿 Ubud free co-working spaces:

Most of the above are cafes that allow you to work in their space as long as you make a purchase. You gotta eat anyway, so these spaces have great working conditions and amenities like strong Wi-Fi, lots of plug sockets, cosy seating etc.

SAVE this list or let me know your favourite free spots to work in Bali.

Best spots to visit in the Dolomites 🍁⛰️ S

Best spots to visit in the Dolomites 🍁⛰️

SAVE this post in a folder labelled ‘Italy’ or ‘Dolomites’ to easily find it later.

There’s two main areas in the Dolomites, so I’ll break it down by East/West.

East (near Cortina d’Ampezzo):

🏞️ Pass Giau & Ra Gusela - scenic spot, you can hike from here but it’s not one of the best hikes. The best part is the drive here from town and views all along the road.

🏞️ Lago Federa - beautiful lake surrounded by golden larches so if you go mid-late October you have the chance to see it covered in yellow/orange. Hike was like 1.5-2 hours each way.

🏞️ Lago delle Baste - small lake with a cool reflection of the mountains.

🏞️ Ra Gusela pond reflection - another reflection spot but only if there’s enough water. Have to kind of go off road to find it.

🏞️ Lago Limides

🏞️ Lago di Serapis - really blue lake with mountains surrounding. 4-6 hour hike depending on the route you take. Can get really busy so go early.

🏞️ Tre Cime di Lavaredo - one of the best hiking spots. Park at Rifugio Auronzo and you go left for the main hike to the three peaks but do the hike to the right as well to Cadini di Misurina if you have time. Such amazing views! Find Grotta delle Tre Cime which is a cave with cool views of the three peaks. 5-6 hours to do it all.

🏞️ Lago di Braies - famous lake, little further away but worth it. Gets really busy though especially with photographers for sunrise.

West:

🏞️ Lago di Carezza - pretty blue lake close to the car park

🏞️ Lago di Antermoia - a 4-5 hour hike to the lake.

🏞️ Panorama Alpe Siusi - famous viewpoint of Sieser Alm.

🏞️ Naturpfad Troi Unika - outdoor sculpture museum

🏞️ Seceda - sharp peaks. popular hike or you can get a cable car up.

🏞️ Vallunga Langental - valley to hike through

🏞️ Cinema delle Odle - scenic viewpoint of mountains. Park at Maga Zannes. 1-2 hour hike.

🏞️ Church of St. John - cute church with mountains behind.

🏞️ Santa Magdalena Viewpoint - one of my fave viewpoints. Have to walk up from the town.

🏞️ Laghetto Baita Segantini - scenic spot. 45 minute walk from Passo Rolle or get the shuttle.

After a year in Bali and countless trips to Southe

After a year in Bali and countless trips to Southeast Asia you would think I’d be good at haggling by now, but I still hate it. Especially for taxi’s and getting around. So Grab is my absolute travel bestie when I travel.

Did you see the receipts in this video? I legit use it every day.

I not only use it for getting around but for food delivery, parcel deliveries, I can order my groceries, pay bills and basically everything.

Grab is in 700+ cities so it’s super reliable and convenient.

Benefits to Grab include:
- Fair and fixed pricing
- Driver screenings and daily authentication
- No sharing of phone number
- Share your ride with family/friends
- Ride Cover Insurance
- Chat function with Auto translate
- No data sharing (end-to-end encryption)
- Contactless payment options
- Help centre

Setting up Grab at home is best but you can also do it once you arrive. Just make sure you can get security texts for verification or I recommend getting an eSIM or local SIM card to set it up once you’re there. This also means you are able to order a Grab at any time instead of having to rely on wifi.

Download Grab wherever you get your apps.

Find the link to book this apartment through my bio.

We found this amazing two bedroom apartment that not only had this view from the bedroom but a whole rooftop patio to enjoy the best view of Matera. Seriously, we walked around the whole town and went to all the viewpoints and none were as good as ours 😂

Then as we were about to head to bed at 10:30pm we hear these loud bangs and look out to fireworks!! Probably one of the best fireworks display I’ve ever seen, perfectly situated behind one of the world’s oldest towns.

It was a religious day of celebration for The Feast of Saint Eustace and they end the day with fireworks! How lucky are we! We were in total disbelief with our jaws on the floor the whole time saying “what is going on” 😂 we were already feeling blown away by the views at this apartment and then this!

📆 so pop the 20th of September in your calendar if you want to witness this magic next year. Highly recommend!
