Talking about romance Native with Tourist

Denpasar (ANTARA News) - Professor of Udayana University, Prof. Dr. I Nyoman Darma Putra rate, the story of the meeting, friendship and love between people of Bali with foreign tourists, a dominant theme that emerged repeatedly in Bali literary works from the 1960s until now.
"Balinese literary works emerged against the background of the development of tourism in Bali, which was likely to move towards mass tourism," said Prof Darma Putra, a professor in the Department of Literature Faculty of Letters Indonesia University of Udayana in Denpasar, Thursday.
He said the development of mass tourism which creates conflicting feelings. On the one hand to welcome the economic benefits of tourism, as promised, but on the other hand was worried about the negative impact of tourism on Balinese culture and society.
Modern literature in the 2010 Bali experienced significant growth, as evidenced by the emergence of a novel in the mass media and publishing a book about it.
Bali Modern Literature books, published during the year 2010 as many as 13 titles, an increase from the previous year which recorded nine titles. The emergence of historical novels in modern Balinese literature became one of the phenomena that follow the latest trend in Indonesian literature.
Prof Darma Putra added, the author of the response to the ambiguous views on the impact of tourism can be traced in the works he wrote.
In the span of five decades, the 1960s to the 2000s, there were 14 short stories and novels that tourism background, which describes the relationship of friendship or romance Bali-Bule.
Story such as "My friend Hans Schmitter" by Nyoman Rasta Sindhu (1969), "Sanur still Bustling" (1971) work Baraas Faisal, "Liak Ngakak" (1978) Son of Mada's work, "American women killed in Ubud" (2002) work Gde Aryantha Soethama, and "Pole Depang Bajang Kayang-kayang" (2007) work Nyoman Manda.
Prof Darma Putra explained, there are many mixed mating pairs of the legendary, such as Ni Pollok, the girl with the painter Le Mayeur Bali, which left a number of works on canvas and the Museum Le Mayeur in Sanur Beach.
Pollok-life travel stories written in the book Le Mayeur Ni Pollok, a model of Kelandis Village, City of Denpasar. Similarly Rondji Ni couples with Antonio Blanco, Filipino artists in the village Ubud, Gianyar which also left a number of works of art that is now displayed at the Museum Blanco Ubud.

Surfing At Dreamland?

Dreamland beach is one of the very popular beach in Bali, exactly at the foot of the southern island in the real estate Baliatau Pecatu Graha, about 21 KM from Kuta beach.
Location is very easy to reach because of the way to the location is adequate, with enough waves that attract surfers, surfers Dreamland Beach in demand from abroad, so the place has also been entered into the directory of the surfer.
At this location, also known as there are some hidden beach cottage, which I think is also not well ordered because it was perfunctory, but with adequate facilities for the surfer, so do not be surprised if a stay here is the surfer, and to hire a cottage this tour is not cheap, which ranges from Rp. 500.000/night cheap and there is also dependent view of the cottage.
We are waiting for comments :)

Cost of living in BALI ?

Accommodation

This is obviously going to be the biggest living expense for most people traveling here.  This is also one of the tougher questions to answer because everyone’s standard of living is so different.  I’m lucky in the sense that I’m (almost) just as happy in a cheap bungalow as I am in a 5 start resort, so I tend to mix it up quite a bit depending on the nature of what I’m doing.
Low End:
Short Term: $15-50/night.  Long Term: $150-200/month
In Bali there’s quite the abundance of cheap accommodations, usually targeted directly at surfers.  The Kuta area in general is ripe with opportunities for cheap accommodations, and if you’re willing to get outside of the tourist areas, then there are even more opportunities for cheap rooms. You can usually negotiate about 50% off the going rate if you’re willing to rent by the month.  So if you wanted super cheap accommodations, that would probably include cold shower and no A/C, you’re looking at around $150-200/month.
Keep in mind when going the super budget route, the rooms are going to generally be pretty bad.  We stayed in some $15/night rooms last year in Kuta that were up there with the worst I’ve ever experienced.
Mid-Range:
Short Term: $50-200/night. Long Term: $400-800
There are a ton of mid range accommodations in Bali both for short and long term stay.  This is probably where most people are going to fall when they visit here.  These rooms will almost always include AC, a decent location, comfortable bed, free breakfast, and usually the option for wifi.  The Island Hotel is a good example of mid-range accommodation if you’re a flashpacker.
If you’re looking to do a mid-range vacation you can find rooms at the gorgeous Pan Pacific Nirwana for about $150/night.
For longer term stays, I’ve been quoted at about $500/month for a nice furnished apartment, in a nice complex in Seminyak.  So if you’re willing to spend that much on a monthly basis you’re going to be in really good shape.

High End:
As much as you want to spend.
Seriously, Bali probably has more high end hotel rooms and villas than any place on Earth.  The starting rate for a truly luxury accomodation starts around $250, but that gets up to $1,000/night very quickly, and if you want a big private villa you could be well over that.
The house I’m spending most of my time in is a big 4 bedroom/4 bath place with a beautiful pool and Gazebo work area.  It’s located in the heart of Seminyak a 3 minute motorbike ride the beach and is about $1500/month.  If you’re willing to get outside of the main towns you can get a veritable palace for under $2k/month.

Food

My breakfast this morning - about $2.75.
One of the best things about Bali is that as long as you aren’t at a fancy resort, food can be CHEAP (and delicious).
Low End: $1.50 to $5.00 per meal
80% of my meals fall into this category, mostly due to the fact it’s not necessary to spend more.  At Warung Murah (translated to cheap food stall) I can get noodles, 3 lemongrass chicken, green beans, 5 chicken satays, and a chicken spring roll for about $2.25 – not to mention it’s very high quality.
Breakfast at Warung Ocha is just as good of a deal.  My two staples look like this:
  • Healthy Breakfast: Egg white omelete with mushrooms and tomatoes, 2 slices of whole grain toast, mango juice, and yogurt with fruit and granola: $2.75.
  • Breakfast La Ocha: Two scrambled eggs, two cooked tomatoes, mushrooms, bacon, mango juice, 2 slices of toast, long black coffee (2 shots expresso/water): $3.75.
Can’t go wrong with that.  Almost every meal is less than 5 bucks, and the quality is generally great.  Things aren’t quite as cheap as Thailand, but still very affordable.
My lunch today at Warung Murah - about $3.50
Mid Range:
$5.00 to $10.00 per meal
These meals are generally reserved for when we want something a little bit different.  There are a few pizza places that have pizzas in the $4.50 to $6.00 range, and this is probably the mid-range meal I have the most.  There are also a few other breakfast options where I can get food and coffee for around $6-7.  The quality isn’t necessarily any better than the cheaper places, but usually just used as a change of pace.
You can also find some really decent tourist spots in this price range.  At Rumours in Seminyak you’re looking at $7 for a good steak, and a burger and fries is a paltry $3.50.  They also have really good drink specials, so it’s not a bad spot for dinner and drinks if you’re in the area.
High End:
$30/per person and up for dinner
There’s certainly no shortage of high-end dining options in Bali.  For a three course meal at Merica that consisted of seared ahi, a delicious steak entre, and dessert, it was about $60 after tax and tip.
I’m checking out Hu’u next week ate at Breeze at the Samaya recently, which was probably the best meal I’ve had.  If you add alcohol into any of these meals they can easily set you back over $100/per person.  That said, the quality is on par with what you would find in high end establishments in any major city.
For a fancy breakfast you can get a full set meal at Ku De Ta for about $12.  Food still isn’t any better than the cheap places, but having breakfast overlooking the beach isn’t a bad way to get the day started.
If you haven’t noticed when it comes to the high end of things, Bali isn’t necessarily any cheaper than any other resort destination, and often it can be much more expensive.
The only thing better than the food at Breeze is the view

Alcohol

While cheap food can be found with ease, finding cheap alcohol is much more difficult.  Spirits are taxed very heavily in Bali, and so finding an affordable cocktail isn’t the easiest thing in the world.  A bottle of decent liquor for instance is usually about 3 times what you’d pay in the States – same goes for wine.  Who wants to pay $30 for a bottle of Jacob’s Creek?
Low End:
$1.50 for a 12oz beer, $2.25 for a 22oz beer.
Bottom line, alcohol is expensive in Bali.  I drink Bin Tang (the local brew) almost exclusively. You can pick it up at the super market for the prices above, at any typical bar it will run you $2.50-$3.00 for a 12oz and $3-4 for a 22oz.
Cocktails are very difficult to find on a low end scale, but if you head to Rumours for happy hour you can get a good strawberry daquiri for about 4 bucks.
Bin Tang at the W Hotel - $4.25
Mid Range:
Imported beer $4.00-$6.00, $6-8 for cocktails
If you head to some of the nicer places like Potatohead or the W Hotel you’ll spend about $4.25 for a Bin Tang and usually around $6 for a Guinness or a Corona.  If you want cocktails, then you can go to a local bar and find a decent well cocktail for around $6.00.  For anything more you’re looking at $6.50-8 per drink.  The beach bag bars in Seminyak are some of the best places to find this.
Cocktails are actually much more than I remember them being.  If you head into Kuta you can probably find some cheaper happy hour deals, but generally speaking, they’re expensive where ever you go.
High End:
$8-12 for local or imported beer, and $8-18 per cocktail. 
I went down to Rock Bar at the Ayana hotel last week and after taxes and tip it was around $9 for a Bin Tang.  That was painful, but the view made it more than worth it.
Want a cocktail at any nicer resort? You’re going to spend a lot of money; generally more than you’d spend at the nicest places in the states. a little while back and it was $16. Luckily I got a 2 for 1 special, but regular prices are pretty astronomical.

Transportation

Generally speaking it’s really easy to get around Bali.  My motorbike costs me $60 to rent for the month (and it’s one of the nicest you can get).  To fill up the tank it’s an exorbitant $1.50.  So getting around that way is, while dangerous, inexpensive.  Cabs are cheap as well.  The other night for a 15 minute drive from Seminyak to Kuta it was about $2.25.  A 45 minute drive (mostly due to traffic) from the airport is about $7-10, depending on your bargaining skills.

Other Misc. Costs

Obviously I’m going to be missing a lot here, but this is just to give you an idea of what you might spend.  Here are some other things you might expect to pay for in Bali:
  • Visa on Arrival: $25
  • Airport Departure Fee: $16
  • Box of Cookies at minimart: $.70
  • High Speed Internet Connection: $150/month (basically as good as it gets)
  • Maid Service: $12.50 to have the ENTIRE villa cleaned
  • Average police bribe when stopped on motorbike: $2-5

Mentawai Surfing Information

The Mentawai Islands lie roughly 100 km off of the west coast of Sumatra in Indonesia. They consist of 4 main islands with many smaller islands scattered throughout. From north to south, the main islands are Siberut, Sipora, North Pagi, and South Pagi. These islands block most swells from reaching the mainland on Sumatra, but they offer some of the most perfect surf in the world. Access to the islands is by sea only with regular ferries to the main trading ports, but by far the best way to access the surf is by charter boat.

The Mentawais is the ultimate surf trip. The Mentawais are located some 130 km off the west coast of West Sumatra and the island chain offers some of the best surf to be found anywhere in the world

Selecting your surf charter boat may frankly be the most important decision you make while planning your Mentawais trip. The quality and maintenance of the vessel, the charter operation at large, and the experience of the captain and crew will make or break your trip. Wavehunters offers 9 surf charter boats in the Mentawais. We have opted to work with these vessels because each of these boats in our experience offers a competitive or tactical edge over other Mentawais vessels. Each of these vessels and their crews have logged a minimum of 3-10 years experience in the Mentawais islands. Each of these boats and/or their skippers and crews have a positive track record for a minimum of 3-10 seasons which speaks for itself.

When to go:
The Mentawais receive large swells between the months of May and October with waves ranging up to (and over) fifteen feet. When the swells are large there is often the opportunity to surf smaller breaks. There are swells year round and always good waves to be found for all skill levels, from pro to amateur. There is also good fishing, diving, and trekking

The best spots:
There are four large Mentawai islands and many smaller islands scattered throughout. The most northerly is Siberut which contains an amazing area of world class in a five mile radius. Also to the North there are the Tellos Islands and the island of Nias.

Immediately to the south is Sipora which is home to world famous waves such as Telescopes and HT's. A little way to the south are North and South Pagai. Home to Maccaroni's, Thunder's, and many more world class spots you've never even heard of.
Indonesia is one of the most consistent surf destinations in the world. The Mentawai islands block most swells from reaching the mainland on Sumatra, but they offer some of the most perfect surf in the world. Access to the islands is by sea only with regular ferries to the main trading ports, but by far the best way to access the surf is by charter boat.
