FASHION PHOTOS IN DAJUMA

/in

This week, Dajuma welcomed a team of fashion photographers headed by Putu Yadi Santika (@elgiophotography) from Negara accompanied by their lovely model, Ni Putu Merry Tasia Suryawan from Negara too. Many shots took place in our garden and on the beach showcasing beautiful dresses and the work of the stylists of the local brand of women’s clothing named Flow Collection owned by Suci Yasmita Dewi from Medewi Village. A blessed initiative that is particularly welcome in this period troubled by the pandemic!

SECRET BALI: A NEW GUIDE LIKE NO OTHER…

/in , , ,

Dajuma has the privilege to be neighbours of Mark and Narina, a dynamic couple of modern adventurers, lovers without moderation of people, culture and nature.
After a successful career in South Africa as writer, editor and photographer, Narina decided in 2012 to roam the world with Mark, exploring wherever their work takes them. She has contributed to titles including Men’s Health, The Telegraph, Fodor’s, The Guardian, High Life, CNN, Marie Claire, South China Morning Post, Getaway, Grazia and Discovery.
As freelance journalist, Mark has been travelling the world on various assignments for more than 80 titles, including BBC Wildlife, BBC Earth, Esquire, Geographical, The Guardian, CNN Traveller, Sunday Times, CNN Travel, BBC Travel and Travel Africa.
Based on their extensive experience in Bali, they have just released an exciting guide intitled Secret Bali in both languages English and French, which is readable like a novel. For those of you who already know Bali, you will be very surprised by the numbers of hidden gems, both natural and cultural, they still discovered. And for those who don’t know Bali at all, this book is just perfect to discover, off the beaten tracks, the unique atmosphere of the Island of the Gods.
Thank you Narina and Mark for your outstanding contribution.

RAINY SEASON STARTED IN BALI

/in , , ,

The rainy season in Bali is used to last from November to March with sometimes incursions in the dry season and vice-versa. This year the rainy season starts on time to the great joy of farmers and gardeners! But the questions often asked by our guests willing to visit Bali are “Is it worthwile to visit Bali during the rainy season? How strong is the rain? How long every day? Is’nt it too wet?” Legitimate questions when they are going to spend hours in a plane to get here! First of all we have to keep in mind that raining in Bali has nothing to do with heavy rain we can meet in some South East Asia countries such as Thaïland. In Bali, there is no monsoon. The answer is also very depending on where you plan to stay in Bali. Close to the mountains you will get more rain than on the coast. In Dajuma, the rain falls only a few hours every day, often in the night and the consequences on the nature and your stay are more than positive: flowers blooming and green grass everywhere in the garden, no dust, wetness limited by the breeze from the sea, and, cherry on the cake, contrasted skies offering breathtaking sunsets as shown on the picture. What could we dream of better?

THANKS CAMILLE

Last week, we had a nice surprise when welcoming a young couple from California, carrying a beautiful photo album prepared by someone very dear to our hearts, Camille Duclot.
Excellent photographer, Camille made several trips to Dajuma and knotted with our staff relations of friendship that endure over time. Her kindness and joie de vivre is reflected in each page of this wonderful album. A million thanks Camille! When will you come back to see us?
