Ngurah Rai International Airport, Denpasar, Bali
For an airport whose motto is “Gateway to Paradise,” Ngurah Rai is confoundingly grim.via online review
Ngurah Rai International Airport, Denpasar, Bali
Though it doesn’t look so terrible from the outside, inside is a dingy concourse that could really be anywhere, assuming anywhere is Cleveland.

Ngurah Rai International Airport, Denpasar, Bali
If you took your money and threw it in a trash can, it'd still be a better deal than what the taxi drivers charge from the airport.

Kuta Beach
All the magic was gone and I could once again see Kuta Beach for what it really is: not a lovely, white, sandy and secluded beach, but one where the sand is dark, there is garbage all over and right behind it there is mall after mall, shop after shop, chain restaurant after chain restaurant.

Kuta
Kuta is a mess. The architecture looks like never ever has there been any planning done and amazingly old temples are surrounded by little ugly concrete buildings.

Green School
Very unusual and ordinary school. They try to teach children how to be a responsible and sustainable future leaders. They teach their children how to grow their own food, use their own waste for fertilizer, teach them to meditate. They even have their own yoga barn! The architecture is also beautiful!
