Kecak Dance
Watching the Kekac dance at Uluwatu Temple at sunset is one of the most amazing experiences one can have while in Bali.
We are rather taught to look for happiness outside, to achieve a certain lifestyle. To judge, to compare and to earn more. We crave “the great lifestyle” — the very-well paid job, the huge house with 5 bedrooms, the latest mobile phone, the infinity pool on a remote island, so we can watch the sunset, the fancy car and so on. Don’t take me wrong, they all can be great … to some extent. And yet, if you stop, breath and relax, you might get a different perspective of what authentic and happy life really means. You may realise that the little JOYS OF LIFE are all around you! 🙂 For some, these joys may be travel, culture, symbols, meeting new people, or a fluffy, loving pet – like my Bengal tomcat called Gingis Han or a caring dog. Others may find joy in reading uplifting stories, hobbies, small things they collect (thimbles, stamps or coins in my case), bespoke jewellery they create, projects they do in their spare time, or unexpected life surprises.

For the first day in Bali I planned a trip to Uluwatu Temple–Pura Luhur Uluwatu one of six key temples believed to be Bali’s spiritual pillars. I was planning to see the Fire Dance at sunset. What I did not expect was to see the monkey thief playing a harmonica.
This is the latest addition to my collection! 🙂 Thanks to Lucian Stroie, I now have this colourful Malta thimble. I’m extremely happy with it because when I went to…
This is one of a kind and very important to me: the Grapefruit Thimble Collection. I received it from my old team on the day we parted ways.
