WW: Tegenungan Waterfall, Ubud, Indonesia

Welcome to Tegenungan Waterfall, Ubud, Bali, Indonesia

Welcome back to Ubud, Bali. 

Although I didn't really have much time while visiting Bali recently, I visited one of the waterfalls near our hotel. Tegenungan Waterfall in Ubud, Gianyar Regency is one of the many waterfalls doted in this beautiful area. We took our rented car to Sukawati Village, not far from the famous Sukawati market, the famous arts and crafts center around the area.

The entrance ticket is only 20K Rupiah for local here in Tegenungan waterfall. I don't see the information for the foreign tourists somehow but I guess the officer will tell you the price for that. We will have to take steps to go down to get to the waterfall (and up again to go back to the parking lot) and it's quite far, at least for me. Make sure you wear comfortable shoes and clothes.

Along the path, you will see some Instagramable spots and best view of the waterfall from above. They have the bird nest, love frame,  bench, vista point and more.

Down near the waterfall you will Pura or the temple as well as holy spring and swimming pool. I love the fact that the water is so clean and cool. Perfect for Bali humid weather.

When you go near the waterfall, you can see some small stone structures. The current is quite strong, at least when we visited this place. Perhaps because it's in the rainy season.

Check out some more photos I took during my visit here.

Will you visit this lovely waterfall? Which one do you think will be your favorite spot here?

Celebrating PINKTOBER - Sharing and Caring Session about Breast Cancer with Google Local Guides

Celebrating Pinktober - Sharing & Caring session with Google Local Guides 

 

Celebrating Pinktober - Sharing & Caring session with Google Local Guides 

Hi, everyone!

I hope all is well and we can stay safe, happy and healthy wherever you are.

October has been celebrated as Breast Cancer awareness month. 

Cancer. Cancer. Cancer.

Six-letter word that instigate fear to many of us. 

One single word that changes your life forever.

Cancer, particularly breast cancer, has touched people’s lives.  Many of us have seen or ben through life-changing moments due to cancer. Be it breast cancer or any type of cancer, those diagnosed with it, and people surrounding them, will see some major adjustments and 'pause' in life. And cancer knows no boundaries. You can be young or old, educated or not, rich or poor. It can simply be anyone. It can be you, it can be me. And Google  Local Guides are no exceptions.

Whether you or someone you love has cancer, knowing what to expect can help us cope with this challenge and life-changing moments. From sharing information and experience about breast cancer and the fight against it, including the importance of early detection, diagnosis, and treatment options, this session will serve as a ‘sharing & caring’ session for Google Local Guides whose lives have been touched by breast cancer. 

Together we can provide support to those cancer warriors, as well as learn how to take care of ourselves and take necessary actions to prevent and ensure early detection. Furthermore, we can identify health facilities & institutions as well as communities that provide care for and support breast cancer. And more importantly, we can show our support to those who are still fighting it. 

That's why we invite Google Local Guides to Join us on Google Meet on Thursday, October 29th, 2020 at 8 PM UTC + 7 and let’s talk about breast cancer 💖🎀

The Google Meet link for the meeting was also provided (https://meet.google.com/ssz-nozb-jkk )

And we invited our friends to 💖🎀🌸 WEAR PINK 💖🎀🌸. Or anything in PINK 🎀 during the meeting.

As a Google Local Guide, I  @indahnuria, a breast cancer survivor, became the host & shared my personal fight against breast cancer. While our dearest doctor LG @doc_dells shared some valuable insights from medical point of views about breast cancer and . Then our dearest friend  Google Local Guide from India @shreeya added to the voice of her own journey in accompanying her beloved mom battling cancer and gave some highlighting points to always remember.

TOGETHER WE CAN! 

Let’s fight breast cancer!

The meeting run well and we discussed a lot about breast cancer and many interesting aspects about it, starting from the symptoms, the treatments and medication, the psychological impacts and the support of the family as well as people around us.

Breast cancer has long been known as one of the silent killers

I shared stories, photos and video about my struggle  against breast cancer. The struggle from July 2014 as I was first diagnosed with breast cancer and continue fighting till now.

From one little lump that changed my life to the series of treatment I have got to do to eliminate cancer cells from my body. From the consultations to the joy of joining such supportive communities sharing the same passion about fighting breast cancer. From tons of pills I have to take to mind-blowing questions and contemplation I got to do.

Support is one of the immense helps we, cancer patients and survivors, always need. I am super lucky to have my hubby, two wonderful munchkins, family, friends, colleagues and even strangers.

❤️ Stay safe, happy and healthy, everyone ❤️

Wonderful Wednesday with My Purple WOrld, Oh My Heartsie Girls and Friends

Cheers from Ubud Bali

Hi everyone..

I started traveling by plane again! I have to admit  I was excited indeed, although deep down I am quite anxious knowing that we have to be extremely careful. We have strict health protocol to follow and that means taking the rapid test or swab test to ensure that you are NEGATIVE from the Corona Virus infection, downloading EHAC or electronic Health Alert Card application, and lining up to verify my test as well as my health alert card. Since the airport was not that crowded, additional lining - up for the verification did not take long.

After 6 long years, I was visiting Ubud again. We had our big Bali break right before heading to New York City back in 2014. And although I managed to travel to Bali, mostly for works, after coming back to Indonesia, I usually spent some times in Nusa Dua or Kuta. So you can imagine how excited I was coming back to Ubud and enjoy every little thing this charming neighbourhood can offer. I didn't really get to explore as I had meetings but during the short break I did walk and hike a bit. The surrounding areas of the Royal Pita Maha Ubad is just amazing. I managed to see the Ajung river, the holy spring pool and the famous Tegalalang rice field. Check out the photos of Ubud here  WW: Breathtaking Ubud, Bali, Indonesia

I sincerely hope I can come back here again with my family soon when the pandemic is over or at least when we have the vaccine. 

Semangaat yaaa Bali

WW: Breathtaking Ubud, Bali, Indonesia

Super excited to go back to Bali!

Well, following all the heath protocol, including taking swab test, I braved myself to fly and go back to Bali again. 

This island of paradise is indeed as beautiful as ever. Although pandemic has really impacted all of us and I feel so sad to see how Bali is suffering a lot from Covid - 19, I have to admit I do enjoy Bali more with less flocking tourists. 

This time, I stayed in Ubud, Gianyar, Bali. 

The Royal Pita Maha, Tjampoehan Relaxation Resort in Ubud is where I stayed for 3 days. On my break, I managed to visit Tegalalang, a UNESCO World Heritage site of paddy field, and explored the areas near the hotel.

I hope you so enjoy the photos. I will get back with wore stories and photos for you. Don’t forget to stay safe, happy and healthy!

Join us un (almost) Wordless Wednesday and have fun with the linky party
