cheap hills

One of the best things about Bali is how insanely cheap everything is--if you know how to bargain for it! Offer them half of what they're asking, and when they say no, just walk away. Most likely, they'll call you back within seconds and say okay. That's how I managed to get so many silver bracelets and rings, which are all beautiful and I now wear one of each on a daily basis. Keeping it simple (stupid) with a white blouse and black Topshop hotpants, but when you're off for a visit in the Sacred Monkey Jungle, too much color and sparkle would draw the wrong kind of attention (and by that I mean monkeys climbing all over me, no thanks).
