8 myths about Bali from exposure.

Myth One: Bali - a paradise ...





Pizdёzh and provocation. Paradise at everyone, of course, but there is a certain average range. My Paradise, for example, is a beautiful small beach with a minimal amount of people, wild jungle behind, beautiful corals and small village nearby. Going to Bali, people expect to find about it. But no. Bali - a huge island, like an anthill scored ugly and intrusive natives Australians was terrible, smelling of cloves and fish. All that is outside of the housing is dirty, smelly and mostly ugly. So, for my five-point scale of Bali paradise is hard to figure 3. Insular Malaysia, for comparison, - 5.
The only exception - Ubud (four), but there is no sea.



To take a picture, however, is always very colorful.



The second myth.

Ah, the beautiful sea!



Despite the fact that Bali - an island that is a piece of land surrounded on all sides by water, bathe there is quite problematic. Chiang giant waves, which includes not recommended. We liked them wildly, but swimmers and supporters to be smeared on the sand powerful waves out there doing nothing. In Kut same waves, plus an incredible amount of starting with boards stupid ass, norovyaschih pass you on the head. Besides the beaches of the crowd crafts vendors and beggars, so relax and lie down only by the pool. But, alas, they do not seawater, but with the usual hlorochkoy.
Bathing in Lovina strange, there is muddy and dirty water and sudden stones. The same is true in Candidasa. Nusa Dua is problematic and low tide, but the best beaches are, perhaps, it was there in Sanur. Solitude thus again possible only in your room.
The reluctance of the islanders equip the ocean can be explained only by one - they have here was believed to live in the ocean of evil spirits.



The third myth.

Magic Tan



Given that you're almost on the equator, more than thirty minutes in the sun, even plastered spf 50 you do not lie. Otherwise, the rest of the trip will cuckoo in the room illuminating glow of her red ass ceiling. So it is better to sunbathe and not try, except from 8 am to 10 am and 16.00 to 18.00. 6 Sunrise, sunset at 18.00.



Myth Four.

Impeccable kitchen Bali



Daily Seafood tom-yam around the island showed that the best he is not strange to non-maritime Ubud. It almost reaches the level of the divine-pit is on the streets of Bangkok for Thai restaurants. In other attempts to Bali that Yam does not even reach the level of the Moscow schools.
Fish and seafood are good in Canggu, Kuta, Nusa Dua, Jimbaran. Very nice tuna, snapper, shrimp and octopus.
Unfortunately, the oysters in Bali could not be found.
Meat in Ubud, Candidasa and mountainous areas of the island. Beef consistency similar to Australia's, but it's nice tougher. Bali is quite a pig barbecue. Given that there were four of us at dinner was always someone not quite satisfied with some dish, let's say - the food in Bali is not all rasprekrasno, but not bad. Awesome restaurant does not always ensure the quality of food (I have already written about the rotten fish). Well, as usual - the most delicious and inexpensive food in the local eatery. Entourage and sticky tablecloths, though annoying.



The fifth myth.

In Bali everything is cheap



Nothing like this. Of course, if you travel by bemo (local bus), curled in a knot and inhaling the aromas of Aboriginal exclude travel around the island, confining only one district, live in cheap losmenah, eat bum-bags and put up with the tasty unhygienic eatery, you can cool save. Otherwise you'll have to shell out for 100-150 dollars a day for two. Local beer (so-so) in a store is 2-2, $ 5 for a bottle of 0, 6, significantly more expensive than in Moscow.



Myth Six.

Durian.
Ostensibly unbearably stinking fruit tastes simply divine.



Both are true. Fresh, freshly plucked durian almost no smell. Try it can only be as a naturalist. Licked, nibbled, he spat. Uninteresting flavor, fibrous pulp. Durian stinks begins only after spending half a day in the sun and eat it then reasonable person could not even imagine will come.



Myth Seven.

Coffee luak.

The world's best and most expensive coffee. Beast civet, a sort of cross between a cat and a mangy fox walks in the forest and eats berries of Arabica. Then she shits grains that hardworking peyzane harvested, roasted and vparivayut gourmets. In Bali 10 grams (one cup) of the local coffee costs 250,000 hryvnia, which corresponds to some 25 US dollars. In the mountains in the center of the island, where he produced 100 grams are already 190,000. On the palate, believe the coffee is one of the worst coffee, tasted in my life. He bluntly tasteless.



Myth eighth.

Monkeys are cute.



NO!
