🌿 01. Slow Days & Green Escapes
For the days when I’d rather slow down, enjoy the scenery, and stay away from the busier side of Bali.
Rice fields, little cafés, art, and a slower pace. Ubud feels like the kind of place where I wouldn't mind staying a few extra days.
Ubud
Endless green rice terraces and mountain views. This is definitely somewhere I'd want to visit without rushing through it.
