Time flies and it was the last night of our 14-day Int’l Travel Blogger Trip. I was surprised that the farewell dinner was held at such a lovely spot that we could watch the beautiful sunset in Bali. Potato Head Beach Club it is. Often, I go on trips that I know no one. The…

Komodo National Park: World’s top diving & snorkeling sites
