LOCAL LIFE
Some villages in Bali still remain almost untouched, they are called Aga Village, where the people are living in communities and everything is done in the village. They sell handcrafts to the tourists and the benefits are shared between the people living there.
All around Amed, in the hills behind the tourism area, people are still living a simple life. You can visit Tuba village where our owners grew up and where many of the family is still living. You might join a gamelan practice (traditional balinese orchestra). The instruments are sponsored by our owners family and the teaching is free for the kids of the village. We do this to preserve the thousands of years old traditions of bali and to transfer the knowledge to the next generation.
