Postcard from Bali
London mom Claudine Lambotte d'Arcangelo takes us on a tour of the idyllic Pacific island
Danny Kaye once sang: “Somewhere off the coast of Java fell a little piece of lava that grew up to be the island know as Ba-li!” That not-so-little piece of lava is the vacation spot of choice for Claudine Lambotte d’Arcangelo, a London-based mother of three. “People are very friendly and relaxed, and the nature is so beautiful and varied….a big change from London life,” she tells us.
A tapestry of senses and experiences, Bali is like no other place in the world. Here you truly can eat, pray, and love…not to mention dance, surf and shop! —Gaia Guidi Filippi
