Well here i am in Bali...on the final road home now...it's been a good...well worth blowing the life's savings for...

I'm staying in an area called Kuta...the 'Ibiza' of south asia....some parts of Bali are meant to be stunning...but that's not really Kuta...tis like a mini bangkok. Walking down the street would drive you bananas...there're boys everywhere trying to sell ya anything from shades to kidneys...they enjoy crossing the road shouting 'alrite mate, how ya going' in the shittiest aussie accent you're ever likely to hear...they'd follow ya for a good 100m before getting the message...the place is dirt cheap...i had a steak, egg and bacon breakfast this morning for 30000rupiah (2euro)...one of the nicest steaks i've had in a long while...i went into one shop (well i was dragged) and bought 15t-shirts and 5 shorts for about 30euro...probably well ripped off...in fact i was ripped off...when i got back to the room and checked the bag, half the gear was missing...i went back to the shop raging...the t-shirts were even back up on display...i had a shouting match with yer man for a bit, then i raised my fist to the prick...i got the shirts but agreed to buy him a few red bulls...seems to be the way they do business....when i Rome i bose.

You'll have a blast with the nightlife here, some might call it explosive (Jesus, that's an awful pun)...but in all honesty, Bali is the fecking bomb (whoops, there i go again)...the bombed nightclub that killed 300 tourists in 2002 is across the road from where i'm staying...they still haven't done anything with the decor since the bombing, if it was in Ireland there would still probably be a queue outside it...even though it is just a hole in the ground.

Most of the bars and clubs are located in the same area...Club M and the Bounty club seem to be the busiest at this time of year...they start filling up at 1am and go onto the early hours...well worth a visit for anyone out this way.
