With a name that leaves no doubt about the origin (and humor) of its owners, David Iglesias and three Spanish partners , this bar-restaurant hanging some 40 meters above the beach near Uluwatu It has been accumulating fans for a few months, who come for its unrepeatable views accompanied by tasty tapas. The venue is a simple white house with a thatched roof and cushions that open up to panoramic views of the ocean. Black rice, bravas potatoes and grilled squid among others come from the kitchen of Marc Torices , who previously worked at the San Pau restaurant in Barcelona , creditor of 3 Michelin stars.

Bali Crazy Bags Loreto Calderon He came to Bali from Chicago for almost a year to work with gallery owners and promoters. Just a few months ago she decided to create her own line of leather bags and accessories.

The key piece of it is a small bag to put the essentials and carry hanging “travelling, dancing, walking or running” In the words of this Madrilenian, she often does all of the above on the same day.

Villa Mersuka the spanish painter Mersuka Dopazo and her husband, the architect Felipe González, had the courage to grab her four small children and settle in Bali a little over a year ago. They came looking for adventure and fleeing from crisis , and her collaboration has produced Villa Mersuka , a luxury house among the rice fields of Canggu in Bali that they rent for seasons. Villa Mersuka is a lively house, for families with children or large groups, who will find themselves comfortable in its spacious 1,000 square meters. But what makes this villa different from the rest is that it constitutes the private universe of its owners, who happen to be artists. The result is a inspiring space, warm, great fun and surrounded by the impressive greenery of the rice fields of Bali, 5 minutes from the echo beach . Mersuka also has her own gallery in Bali where she sells part of her work, Sukyf.
