Boy who found the coconuts

There was a time before the photography passion took off, a time that I didn't like photos, but it was still a time I loved adventures this just happens to be Bali. 

I was a teenager and my parents wanted to show me the world, so we took a trip to Bali for 2 weeks, as both my bother and I loved the surf and the whole family enjoyed water so what could be more better than a place that is known for the beach sunsets and waves a little volcanic islands called Bali.

There was a time before my passion for photography took off—a time when I didn't appreciate photographs. However, it was still a period in my life when I adored adventures, and that particular adventure led me to Bali.

During my teenage years, my parents had a strong desire to broaden my horizons, so we embarked on a two-week journey to Bali. Both my brother and I were avid surfers, and our entire family cherished water-related activities. Bali seemed like the perfect destination, renowned for its stunning beach sunsets, incredible waves, and unique volcanic islands.


My family didn't settle for the typical tourist spots. While we explored Kuta Beach, the Zoo, restaurants, markets, and even the Monkey Temple, we craved more. Renting a car, we embarked on a countryside adventure, discovering picturesque rice fields, hidden beaches, and exclusive hotels that catered to us as if we were the island's only guests, despite the constant influx of thousands of tourists each week.

Escape from the city's bustling horns, and you'll find yourself surrounded by nothing but swaying coconut trees and vast rice fields. Here, the landscape transforms, giving way to unique hotels that replace city buildings with tranquil straw huts. Serenity fills the air, broken only by the gentle lull of waves caressing the volcanic pebble beaches.
