3. Vietnam Village Barelang

When there was War in Vietnam, there are some groups of people who fled by boat because scared of the war. Then after some time they docked in the ocean, they finally decided to land on one of the islands.
Eventually they landed on Galang Island, Batam.
They stayed there for years without communication.
So they do not know when battle is over.

 

At the time of the Indonesian government told them to go back to Vietnam, many people are scared, and many of them choose suicide rather than return to Vietnam.

Bali Island of Paradise

Bali is the most famous Island in Indonesia.
Bali is located at the westernmost end of the Lesser Sunda Islands, between Java to the west and Lombok to the east.The Capital is Denpasar.
Bali is home to most of Indonesia's Hindu minority.

No wonder people say that Bali is Paradise on Earth.
The island have much beautiful beach surrounded with natural fantastic  landscape.


Because Bali is number 1 tourism destiny in Indonesia the Balinese people try to keep they culture and tradition  and balance it with the modern life style.
There is so many festival that connected to the Hindu religiounwhich performances like that increasingly attracted tourism attention.

Only in Bali you can found 1 day without any light, any vehicle, even with no body (people) in the Island.
That day call Hari Raya Nyepi.
Hari raya nyepi is  a Balinese "Day of Silence" that is commemorated every Isakawarsa (Saka new year) according to the Balinese calenda.
It is a day of silence, fasting and meditation for the Balinese.

The painting above is a Balinese dancer.
Wild eyes, sharp look.
soft but assertive move.
colorfull.

I do very like bali dance because there is an aura that we can't explain while they are dancing.
What i love about Balinase dancer is they move very smoothly, and they have a mysterious eyes.


Btw, if you are planning to Go to Bali, and need a very humble and charming tour guide you can call me at +62819-90942020 :)
