Flavours of The Village – Truly Bali Experiences
February 4, 2021 @ 8:30 am - 2:30 pm
The TRULY BALI Experiences is an initiative of some of our LSP parents that have put together a series of real “insider gem” experiences. A unique opportunity for you to discover Bali with those who know it the best. This is the first of a series that will happen every Thursday, for the entirety of the first term. An amazing way to learn about Bali and its amazing culture, support the local families, the LSP students, and also keep our community connected and engaged.
Pak Gede was born and raised in Bali and is part of the 11th generation of a priest family that dates to the origin of Balinese Hinduism. His passion is towards preserve and brings forth the story of this island and what has made it unique from a spiritual, natural, and cultural perspective. Since 1988 he has been working in the tourism industry. From 2006 to 2017 he worked with villages around Bali to empower local communities to sustain their heritage in terms of culture and customs, and offer tourists an insight into what makes Balinese culture unique in a sustainable way.
