Uluwatu is where I ALWAYS start my Bali holiday. It's about a 45 minute drive from the airport and has nice white beaches (only can swim at low tide.) This is where I deal with my jetlag and just chill until I'm ready to move. Unless you surf this is a 2-3 day max area to stay in, but a great place to begin. Don't head towards Kuta, Seminyak, Canguu first --you WILL be dissappointed. Lots of traffic and dirty beaches….its just where everyone is becuase theres lots of stuff to do with shopping, eating, and partying.
Who says packing light means sacrificing style? This list is all about making the most of one small carry-on - and trust me, I know what I am talking about, because the last time I paid for luggage was probably 10 years ago.

My great-great grandparents left their home in Barile, Basilicata a century ago to emigrate to new opportunities in the US. Last year I went back to discover some of my roots. What I found was a virtually unspoiled landscape of mountains, farms and small villages full of history. Basilicata has suffered a tough past- poverty, bandits, earthquakes, landslides and even it's own mini dustbowl and has remained sparsely populated and thus much more lightly touched by modern society and rapacious tourism. If you are brave enough to visit (you'll probably have to drive!) you'll find magical medieval villages, gorgeous landscapes, food so fresh and flavorful that it'll make you cry and friendly locals - though don't expect a lot of English!
