I am Balinese, born in Karangasem in a small village called Kangkang. I am married to an Austrian woman and together we have a little daughter, 9 years old. We built up a little guesthouse in the middle of Ubud and I like to show my guests around Bali.

As part of Indiescapes curation, I went to Made's village in Kangkang. The best part of the experience were the stories! Made's village is truly untouched by tourism and still preserves many traditions and customs. These are not at all similar to the societal and cultural norms that the majority of us are used to. What makes the stories even more interesting is that Made's lovely wife, Birgit, is Austrian. It was intriguing how the modern world influences Balinese lives, and how they work with the differences.
I also really enjoyed the hills and rice fields behind the village. Something different from the usual cities, buildings, cars… A very relaxing yet insightful day!
