SWEET BALI HIGH

At 12am on Valentine's Day, I could not sleep. So I went online, and found that Cebu Pacific was on sale. All flights at 1.43 (base fare). I thought, this was perfect for me. I really wanted to go on a trip, alone, for my birthday. I've been wanting to do so since 2011, asked my dad if I could go to Coron alone and he didn't like the idea of me being all alone, period.

I tried booking a trip to Japan, but it did not feel right. I booked random trips to countries like Brunei, Thailand, Cambodia, but it felt like these were the trips I needed to take with friends and family.

Then I saw it.


It was going to be no other than Bali. 

Travel alone. Check.
Go to Bali. Check.
Do a lot of things in a foreign country all alone. Check check check.

I've been obsessed with Bali for the past few days since I booked the trip; been reading up a lot on where to go, what to do, what to eat. I'm worried 3 days won't be enough, I want to exhaust the entire time making meaningful things as I turn 25 this November. 

So please help me fix my itinerary. The last time I made one for our trip in Kota Kinabalu, we didn't follow it. We went to the mall, bought wigs, watched a movie, got a haircut; stuff we could have done at home. I just want this trip to be perfect. So make me less obsessed and help me out.

Here's what I got so far:

DAY 1 (November 8) 
- Arrival 12nn
- Check in hotel
- Go around Denpasar, Kuta and Seminyak
- Party, shop, drink, whatever

DAY 2 (November 9)
- Ubud trip (I will get a tour guide for this one.)

DAY 3 (November 10)
HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!!
- Yoga at 8am
- Spa treatments all morning
- Beach all afternoon in Seminyak

DAY 4 (November 11)
- Departure from Bali

I only plan to visit these places. I'm so tempted to rebook my flights (get an earlier one, or leave a few days later) just to extend my stay. I'm already falling in love with Bali (or obsessed), I feel like I will be doing this trip every year. Go to Bali. Every. Year. 

And believe it or not, I HAVE NOT SEEN EAT. PRAY. LOVE. But I plan to do so. All in Bali. 

I am so excited I just can't hide it.
