On this day 3 years ago I ate breakfast at Cafe Moka in Seminyak then went to Internet Outpost on Poppies Lane II in Kuta. In those days I did not have home internet access, which made me more social, but less productive.

Moving into my first house in Bali 3 years ago happened on this day in 2003. I remember clearly living in Ronta Bungalows in Kuta with Sean, the 2 twin bed room costing something like 35,000rp per night. We were just getting set up in Bali and were lucky to have a place like Ronta [...]

I’m pissed off, because my piece of shit Alpha Smart won’t let me me download any of the articles I typed this evening. The funny thing is one of the articles was about what a great machine the Alpha Smart is. Do you now believe in Murphy’s Law?

After working away at Internet Outpost, Sean and I rode back to Seminyak and had arranged to meet up with a Ebong (his name means tadpole) at a local bar down the street. We picked this place as it’s pretty relaxed (actually when we go it’s empty as the nightlife around here starts [...]

After much searching we settled on a place in Seminyak and got to move our stuff in today. Here are a couple of pics of Sean relaxing in a bamboo chair and my cheap mosquito net set up.
