Travelouge of BALI

Sunlight, Sand, Waves, and Endless Laughter

As the plane slowly descended at Ngurah Rai International Airport in Bali, the dream journey of our ViewShop Team to Bali gradually began to unfold.

Welcoming us were local tour guides, their faces glowing with bright smiles. They adorned each of us with fragrant flower garlands, and the air was filled with a faint aroma of spices, instantly relieving us of work-related worries. From that moment on, we felt as though we had entered an entirely different world.

Adventure

Jungle Swing: 

A Heart-Pounding Romantic Moment

On the first day of our arrival in Bali, we couldn't wait to head over to the place that has captivated countless hearts – the viral swing.

Nestled within the jungle, with a magnificent view of volcanic landscapes as its backdrop, the swing offers an unforgettable experience. Beauties don vibrant trailing dresses and take their seats on the swing. With a leap and a push from the staff, the swing soars out into the horizon. The sensation of flying amidst the blue sky and lush jungle is indescribably delightful.

Everyone felt like a freely soaring bird, or a superhero from a movie, screaming and laughing with joy. Everyone whipped out their phones to capture this coolest moment, knowing full well these photos would be perfect for showing off later!

Ayung River Rafting: 

Become a "Plunge into Rapids" Water Warrior

Beneath the swing in the jungle lies our next challenge – Ayung River Rafting!

Wearing life jackets and helmets, gripping the paddles, and boarding the rubber rafts, we set off down the raging river. Along the way, we can enjoy the beauty of the pristine forest and catch glimpses of the local residents' daily lives.

When encountering rapids, everyone holds tightly onto the sides of the raft as it bounces and crashes through the water. The tension and excitement are palpable, with screams and laughter filling the air as we rush downstream. Despite being drenched, a sense of victorious joy fills our hearts, making us feel like true water warriors!

Ocean Adventure: 

The "Sea Spectacle" of Penida Island

Day Three: Journey to Penida Island

On the third day, we embarked on our journey to Penida Island.

This beautiful island is like a hidden treasure deep in the ocean, full of endless surprises. After selecting our water activities at the water sports platform, everyone eagerly changed into their gear and plunged into the crystal-clear blue sea.

Here, you'll find the best spots for snorkeling: as you float on the surface and look down, wow! A kaleidoscope of colorful coral reefs and a myriad of tropical fish swim right beneath you, making you feel as if you've entered a fantastical underwater world.

This location is also ideal for adrenaline-pumping activities such as banana boat rides, jet skiing, bumper boats, scuba diving, and underwater walking. Friends who love excitement and pushing their limits were thrilled, declaring it an experience well worth it. The thrill-seekers among us couldn't stop raving about how much fun they had, making it clear that this trip was truly unforgettable.

Scenic Beauty and Culinary Delights

Heavenly Fairy Rift: A Natural Sea Arch Bridge

This is a naturally formed sea arch bridge, created by volcanic crustal movements, presenting a breathtaking natural wonder. Every day, the surging tides rush through the arch, crashing against the cliff walls, providing an unparalleled visual spectacle.

Divine Bath: The Celestial Pool

Legend has it that this is where the gods came to bathe. The water in the Celestial Pool is crystal clear, revealing the bottom with perfect clarity. It was formed by the constant pounding of ocean waves over millennia. During low tide, the pool becomes incredibly calm and tranquil, like a still mirror, while just beyond its boundaries lies the vast and expansive sea.

Fairy's Cliff Fall: A Breathtaking Coastal Vista

From this vantage point, the magnificent coastline unfolds beneath you. When viewed from above, it resembles a giant dinosaur, with towering cliffs and rock formations shaped like the mythical creature. The gradual shift from shallow to deep turquoise waters adds to the awe-inspiring beauty of the scene, showcasing the incredible craftsmanship of nature.

Jimbaran Beach: Sunset Dining and Fireworks

Jimbaran Beach: Sunset Dining and Fireworks

In the evening, we arrived at Jimbaran Beach, often hailed as "Bali's most beautiful beach."

The sunset here is absolutely breathtaking! With flickering candlelight and soothing music, the entire beach transforms into a massive open-air restaurant.

As the sun slowly descends, the sky is painted in shades of orange and red, enveloping the entire beach in a warm glow. Everyone enjoys delicious food while taking in the mesmerizing sea views. It just so happened to be a friend's birthday, and as we sang the birthday song, fireworks suddenly lit up behind us. The moment was like something out of a fairy tale, filled with happiness and beauty!

Merusaka Nusa Dua:

A Tranquil and Luxurious Retreat

Here, it's a completely different world.

In contrast to the vibrant and bustling energy of Kuta, Nusa Dua exudes a sense of calm and privacy. Merusaka Nusa Dua is situated within a lush tropical garden, enveloped by dense vegetation, creating an atmosphere that feels like a secluded paradise cut off from the rest of the world.

Wake up early to catch a breathtaking sunrise, or linger to watch the sky turn golden during a stunning sunset. Leave your footprints in the soft sand, where moments seem eternal, and time appears to pause. This place invites you to cherish every second, to hold onto the feeling of youthfulness and emotional depth.

May we always remain young at heart and filled with wonder, our spirits moved by the beauty around us.

A Memorable Gathering at SAPA Restaurant

In the midst of Bali's idyllic tropical landscapes, SAPA Western Restaurant buzzes with laughter and lively conversation.

The restaurant's interior is adorned with a warm and sophisticated atmosphere. Long wooden tables are surrounded by guests, all eagerly partaking in the feast before them. The tables are brimming with an array of vibrant dishes, offering a delightful mix of local Balinese delicacies and refined Western cuisine. Each dish is a testament to culinary artistry, designed to tantalize and satisfy every palate.

As friends and colleagues gather, they share stories of their adventures at work and on their travels, recounting memorable moments and laughing heartily. The atmosphere is filled with camaraderie and joy, with soft music playing in the background, adding to the harmony of the evening. It feels like a perfect symphony of flavors, laughter, and shared experiences.
