TEAMTALK

LET’S CELEBRATE! ‘Om Swastiastu...’

Another year has passed and here we are at our 15th anniversary! It can be fun to reminisce about the years that have passed, like back to the time that Bali & Beyond was still in tabloid form, or how the island used to be when the magazine first started compared to how it is now. However, we’ve decided not to do too much reminiscing this year and instead we want to focus on celebrating the now.

So check out a lighthearted piece we prepared titled ‘Fun Fifteen’ where we asked 15 people around the island 15 questions that are all related to the number 15!

Our colorful Beyond Bali piece about the annual carnival in Jember is sure to get you in a festive mood. As for Rest & Relaxation, this time we decided to cover the W Resort & Spa Bali because they always have great parties. If you’re already familiar with their rooms then you’ll want to check out this article to see their villas – the design is completely different but of course still has that signature W touch. It’s a surprisingly peaceful area where you can rest your head after an eventful night out.

And to change things up, we’ve decided to teach you a fun workout in Action & Attraction this month. Follow our contributor’s 10-step workout to burn off those extra calories from partying it up during the months ahead!

We hope you enjoy this edition and we thank you so much for continuing to support and read our magazine.

We’re eager to work on some new ideas for the coming year and we really hope they’ll be able to keep you excited and entertained! Here’s to the future… Cheers!

simple 10-step workout for a leaner, toner and fitter you.

Each movement must be done 8 - 12 times and the entire workout is to be repeated 3 times. This workout will last 15 - 20 minutes. It is important to note that to get the absolute best effect you cannot have breaks in between the exercises.

When you finish exercise 1, you must immediately do exercise 2. The trick is intensity and not allowing the muscles to rest during the workout.

Breathe in on the way down, breathe out on the way up. Repeat this workout 3 times a week for the best results.

Fariz, the man behind the JFC, first held the carnival without any support from the local government or private companies, but it has impressively managed to grow into the world’s 4th biggest carnival event attended by thousands from around the globe.

When I graduated from high school I moved to Surabaya and was surprised to see the buzz on social media about the JFC. I never imagined that JFC would grow to be such a major event. When one of my friends decided to join the carnival as one of the artists last year, I took the opportunity to go back to my hometown and see the 11th annual JFC. One of the first things I saw was 600 artists walking along the 4 km catwalk located right in the heart of the town, all dressed

■ DEPARTURE Arrive at the airport two hours prior to departure. A Rp. 150,000 international departure tax is required. Domestic departure fee is Rp 40,000. No Fiscal tax-exempt to pay for Indonesian and expatriates holding KITAS for International departure. Ngurah Rai Intíl Airport, Tel: (0361) 751-011

Call an ambulance by dialing 118, but it is a lot more practical and quicker to hire a taxi. Most hotels have on-call doctors on standby. For “Bali Belly”, Lomotil and Imodium eliminate symptoms, but not gastro-related infections. A fever along with symptoms requires doctor-prescribed antibiotics.

Drink as much liquid as possible. Isotonic drinks under various brand names are widely available and are known to replenish body hydration and replace fluids. For discomfort, diarrhea and cramping, drink strong, hot tea; avoid fruits and spicy foods.

Some day-biting mosquitoes carry dengue fever, but this is not a problem in tourist areas.

Bali is non-malarial and prophylaxis is not required. Mosquito bites, cuts or abrasions easily become infected in the tropics. Treat them immediately.

Drink only bottled or boiled water. Peel fruit before eating; avoid raw vegetables except at reputable restaurants. Ice in restaurants is safe.

Protect yourself from the intense equatorial sun.

Use high SPF sunblock and a hat.

AIDS and sexually transmitted diseases are increasing in Indonesia. Local sex workers have multiple partners from around the world.

They are not checked for sexually transmitted diseases. Act responsibly and use condoms, available over the counter at pharmacies.
