Some people in Central Sulawesi...

Our hotel in Palu is really nice. We especially love the well-kept vine outside our rooms and the very-very helpful onwer who took Abi and Eddie around the national park.

Not sure whether it’s lucky or unlucky to come Bali during the silence festival - 22 March.
All local and foreigners are required to stay at home or inside their hotel… No TV, no shops or restaurants will be open. And yes, you can’t walk on the street or beach.
And… you can’t on the light after 6pm. It’s meant to be a day of mediation and reflection. Love Bali for this day where the city rejuvenates.
