Roasting coffee beans
Samples of coffees (kopi) and teas (teh) from luwak plantation
Civet named Simone who eats coffee beans and poops out naturally decaffeinated remains to make my cup of luwak coffee. Luwak is spendy ($$) but only contains .5% caffeine and is very smooth and earthy and niiice to sip especially with this view
Tegalalang rice terrace and fungi friends
Hindu water cleansing ceremony at Pura Tirta Empul. People from any religious background are encouraged to bathe and pray under the spouts of natural spring water. This turned out to be a powerful experience for Carmen and I as we bathed (in borrowed sarongs) amongst a hundred other people from all over the world surrounded by incense, nibbling fish, offerings in banana leaves, and colorful floating flowers.
