In Defense of Kuta

UPDATE! New round of bombings in Oct. 2005. It sickens me. But I refuse to let the terrorists win. We must continue to travel and follow our hearts. I won't let the people of Bali down. God bless the Balinese...

I like Kuta... and I've stayed in Nusa Dua and visited Ubud... and have gone around the Island. Something "normal" about being in a hotel that is close to EVERYTHING and has different PRICE RANGES for gifts and restaurants.

True, it's not EVERYONES cup of tea! Read my Travelogue: In Defense of KUTA. You'll understand more why you'll get grief from "world travelers!"

Pros and Cons
  • Pros:Good Prices and a variety of clubs & restaurants
  • Cons:More Street Touts! ; (
  • In a nutshell:Love Kuta... go!

    Thank god for the hell-raising Aussies. I found them to be quite entertaining while rotting in East Timor. And the Aussies I was in cotact with were Infantry soldiers. Just imagine the chaos!
