13 weeks in Asia: Kuta (Lombok)

in travel •  6 years ago 

So, the next day I went to Kuta, the South of Lombok. I immediately felt a nice vibe. I booked for 2 nights, but eventually I stayed there for 5 nights. I guess everyone will have a good time there. I've met some people that just enjoyed the nice beaches. One of the beaches is Tanjung Aan. IMG_1645.jpg The beaches are all very large with only a few of tourists and beautiful clear water. If you buy some food, the beds on the beach are for free. So, lay down, have a coconut and relax!
Myself, I enjoyed the beaches as well, but I also wanted to go on adventure. I went to the waterfalls Benang Kelambu and Air Terjun Benang Stokel. I jumped from a cliff of 8m into the water. It was quite something for me! On my way back from the waterfalls, I made a stop at Sade village and Sukarara village. It was nice to visite, but these villages were rather an opportunity for the locals to sell some stuff. IMG_1706.jpg
At the waterfalls, I've met a English teacher. He asked me to join his the next day to his school. What an opportunity! He picked me up at 8 and I spend the whole morning there. The children had never seen a tourist so they were quite impressed (just like me). I got the change to learn the children how to introduce themselfs. IMG_1788.jpg

Other days, I woke up early to go to yoga class and have a massage. I would recommend mana retreat for this.
In the evening, I went out for dinner and drinks. I went to Ashtari: a nice place with life music and a great view (see picture). Other nice places for dinner are Bamba, the rooftop and especially take a chance to eat at a local bar, there are plenty of them. Nice places to have a drink are Yogi and the bus. IMG_1662.jpg

After these 5 days, I took a plane to Bali. I will tell you more about this in my next post!
