So when me and the guys split I spent a night in Sengigi, and got a stomach sickness. Made it to Gili T the new morning, but the pain in my stomach didn't stop.

Ended up going to a clinic on the island, hooked up to an IV, and given some drugs to help heal me up. I was only allowed to eat plain rice, boiled eggs and bread. Which sucked, but I got through it.

Certaainly blows when you get sick and your all alone, this wasn't the first time, but it was the worst sickness for sure.

So I spent a few days recovering, and chillin out on the island. I walked around the entire island, went swimming inthe clear waters, watched some bootlegged videos and just kicked it in general.

I left on the 29th to head back to Ubud before flying back to Malaysia. On the ferry I met too cool Aussie girls, that are on their way to India, Africa, Europe, Canada, and then back home to Aus.

While in Ubud I got about 4 massages, 5 dollar one long massages are sooooo money!! ate really good food.

Cool note actually I found out that the cafe I was going to is frequented by Micheal Franti of Spearhead. One of my favourite artists, and I had just missed him by a week. That would have been dope to have met him in Bali. They said he comes by a few times a year to do Yogo and dabble in the art scene in Ubud. cool stuff.

ON the 31st I flew back to Malaysia.

Peace
