Bali

Hi guys!
So after i left Thailand, i went to Singapore to meet Mum, Dad & Kit. We were in Singapore 2 days. Its a very cool city, it reminds me a lot of London in many ways. . . But the majority of its population are chinese. After Singapore & doing a little shopping with mum, we were off to Indonesia. First stop, Gili Air.
The Gili's are 3 small islands just off the coast of Lombok ( another small Indonesian Island) . There wasnt much to do on Gili, just eat and sleep and snorkle.
Kit and mum got 3 or 4 dives in, and i just snorkled as i couldnt be bothered to do a diving re-fresher course. We decided to leave Gili early as there wasnt too much to do and head over to Bali.
Instead of flying, we took the 2 hour ferry ride. The idea was fun, and it was less of a hassle than getting a flight. But our bums were so numb by the end of it ! From the ferry, we then took a "Taksi" (taxi) to Ubud. Its right in the centre of Bali. Its so green, and there are lots of Paddy fields, Temples, shops & Touristy things to do. Its quite a Hippy part of Bali, which i like :) .
We stayed for 2 nights, and then went down to the Sw tip of Bali called Jimberan. Where mum had booked us 2 nights at a very posho hotel for my Birthday :D . It was AMAZING. Considering i had been living in cockroach infested rooms for the past 3 months (or however long) .

Anyway, so we had a great time, and yesterday they went home. It was so sad leaving them at the airport. Its a really hard feeling to describe, but its really strange when you have been traveling on your own or just bieng so independant and self-sufficant. And then bieng back with your parents and acting exactly the same way you have always been with them. It was really hard (but lovely) seeing them, because all the "Home" emotions came back and because i had been in my "Travel Bubble" for so long i didnt really know how to feel.
So im on my own again now, and i miss them so much! I need to get back in the mind set of bieng a solo traveler again, and forget about everything else. Still i had a lovely time with them :) and now i'm back in Ubud. I think i will just walk around for today.
Will for sure be blogging quiet a lot over this next week, speak soon x
