I visited Bali a year ago just for about a week to travel. When I first come here, it was really nice. Everyone say it’s a paradise and it is a paradise. It’s really nice with lots of nature. I can’t feel this kind of thing in Tokyo or even Seoul. So, after I lost my work due to pandemic I moved to Bali to switch my life environments. Also because Bali is known for its friendliness towards foreigners and the nomads.

Beside enjoying my time and the nature here, I’m also currently writing essay. I want to publish story in book to let people know more about Bali. Through my stories I want to inspire the youth to enjoy more of life. I want to tell them there are lots of different ways to live and there are lots of different places to enjoy. There are plenty of times to learn different cultures. We’re much worth to live and enjoy different things, because it’s only once in a life time.

I was actually looking to work in Bangkok. I was looking for a restaurant manager or hotel manager there. Then a friend of mine who is a chef was working in double sic plantation grill emailed me on Facebook and offered me a job opportunity there. I accepted it, loved it, loved the restaurant, loved the team, loved the gm and signed the contract straight away. It was very easy and quick.

There are plenty reasons why I love working in hospitality. But it really comes down to my love in food, cooking, wine, the wine and restaurant culture. I love to see restaurant that is full of people which everyone is having a great time, enjoying thear meals, laughing, chatting, and spending money of course. To me, restaurants are for celebrations, it’s a time to get together and have a good time.

I’m very grateful that I have a chance to stay and work in this beautiful island. The food on the island is world class truly. It’s mind-blowing how competitive the island is. There are high-end restaurants, the middle end, and of course the warungs. All of them serve the best food.
