Rain, rice terraces, and a temple by the sea — Day 4 in Bali was a mix of breathtaking views, noisy tour groups, culinary letdowns, and the chaos of island traffic. Between exploring the iconic Tanah Lot and laughing at overly sweet “iced tea,” we also caught a glimpse of Bali’s future: electric scooters rolling alongside thousands of motorbikes.

Day three in Bali didn’t go as planned. What was supposed to be a cultural evening turned into pancakes, books, rain showers, and a midnight encounter with a very determined cat. Sometimes the best travel memories aren’t the big adventures, but the small, unexpected moments in between.

Our Ubud adventure begins with quiet mornings, temple visits, and the unforgettable taste of Balinese coffee—all while learning to slow down and embrace island life.

After nearly 24 hours of travel with barely an hour of sleep, we finally landed in Bali. From bumpy flights and surprise customs forms to a wild ride with a familiar driver, the journey was anything but boring. The zombie is officially back on the Island of the Gods!

After months of recovery and settling into Leipzig, it’s finally time for a break. Bags are packed, cats are fed, and the car is ready — we’re heading back to Bali for some sun, culture, and adventure.
