It seems I keep experiencing New Years this year. First with the Gregorian calendar, then the Chinese New Year, and now I’ve gotten to see what it looks like in Bali. This year I went to Nusa Penida and got to experience Isakawarsa, the Balinese New Year.
Bali
A country of masks, animals, and volcanoes.
I’m Going to a Burn in Bali
I won’t be posting for a while, since I’ll be out in the wilderness of Bali enjoying a Burn with my Russian friends. While Lampu isn’t an official regional, it’s still an event held under the Ten Principles of Burning Man, and I’m excited to see how it plays out.
Happy Year of the Fire Horse!
The Gregorian New Year has come and gone, but that doesn’t mean that the celebrations are over. The Luna New Year has just gone by, an important time of the year for China. It’s the worlds largest exodus of people, and a time to think about the year ahead.
