Frolicking on the beach of a small secluded island might be the holiday dream of most work-drenched men and women.
Away from the noisy, clogged and polluted city streets, one can warm their tired feet on sun-baked sand, swim above coral reefs and laze in a bale bengong (stilted open-air wooden hut) with a good book while feeling the delicious sea breeze against their skin. Looking up, instead of a hazy gray sky, one can see the blue of the sky during the day or the twinkling stars at night.
It is definitely my kind of holiday.
So, when I had the chance to escape the capital, I grabbed it and without hesitation I headed to Lombok’s Gili Meno.
