The beach that greets arrival to your Nusa Lembongan IDC
Wow!!! Where do I start??
After a bit of a trip to Bali, it was first time to chill a bit and say hello to some friends at Gili Air which I was planning for a while already. Thanks to Sander, Joerie and Viola at Ocean 5.
A very nice place to relax and it reminded me a bit of Koh Tao but more quiet.
No bikes, just bicycle and horse and wagon…just amazing!!!!
Like Mark normally tells me normally after a 1 day holiday
Back to work!!
So the first ferry to my next adventure, my first time Lembongan!
Arrive at the island and off to Two Fish Divers.
Great welcome by HANNI who brought me to my room and I settle in a bit…I thought! Thanks Marie!
But there was Kipp as well, so we needed some time to catch up.
For the people who know Kipp….. YES it’s still Kipp hahahaha.
Next day meeting all candidates from all over the world.
Let me introduce you.
· An-Shi from Switzerland or should I say Koh Tao?
· Tom from Germany
· Chris from UK
· Podge form Ireland or should I say from Koh Tao?
