  • About Temples: Taman Ayun

    Since Bali is the Isle of the Gods, it’s kind of part of the deal to visit their temples, at least some of them. This time I take you to Taman Ayun. A temple surrounded by water to three sides. The holiest part is up on a small hill. You have to pass two terraces…

  • Into the Deep

    Now in the West Bali National Park we also took the great chance to snorkel near Menganjan Island. I can’t discribe the beauty, but I tried to capture it for you. Als wir im Westbali Nationalpark waren, nahmen wir auch die Chance wahr in der Nähe von der Insel Menganjan zu schnorcheln. Mir fehlen die…

  • In Concert: Kings of Convenience

  • West Bali National Park

    One Night of our trip we stayed in the West Bali National Park. We had a very special accomodation. Right in the middle of the mangroves there were some gazebos, barely big enough for the bed, but with an amazing view. Right next to us was a beautiful beach and with beds to chill at.…

  • Typical Bali: Ricefields

    Many things are typical for Bali, one is the ricefields.  Though a very common view in South-East-Asia, they have something mystical in Bali. Maybe it’s due to the hinduistic and traditional elements in and around the ricefields. See for yourself. Viele Dinge sind typisch für Bali, eines davon sind seine Reisfelder. Obwohl die Reisfelder ein…

  • About a Fisherman

    Once upon a time there was a fisherman. Well, so or different the story about this fisherman would start. In the Taman Ayun Temple in central Bali, on our way to Ubud,  I found him. It was a short meeting. I was stroling through the hinduistic garden, floating in peace so to say, when I…

Lucky me, I made a backup right before updating. So after distributing the update manually WordPress worked again and here I am. Sorry for the downtime. Es…

  • Bali's Crater

    We just crossed the highest point of what until then we believed to be a mountain to end up in between two crater lakes. One to the left, one to the right. With the mist in the air the scenery was so mystic that I had to give it a try to capture it. Wir…
