OK, i know this isn't essential information for any of you, but I'm so excited about booking my next trip that I just had to shout! I took my first (AMAZING) trip to Bali last August, and even though it's pretty much as far away from New York City as one can travel, I want to go every year! And this time, my friend and I are making a side trip to Japan at the end - very short (two day) jaunt to Tokyo and the World's Fair outside of Osaka.
I'll be in Bali July 18-27 - first two days recovering from jet lag in Ubud, and then we're all about Kuta. Hope to have a Bintang (or ten) with some of you at S&S!
