it's 8 30 a.m i'm out the door i'm on my way i've got my camera bag i've got my camera
i've got my trusty sunnies this is the price we have to pay. get up early
try and avoid the queues try and avoid the heat let's go hunt some waterfalls but before i do that
i forgot my toothbrush so i'm going to go and buy a toothbrush and some toothpaste from somewhere
okay so i'm here at location one this is munduk waterfall and this is
the path down this muddy like slope so the plan is to try and get to four waterfalls today
the four sort of famous munduk waterfalls that are here
and the thing is oh gosh this is actually really slippery oh my gosh i don't have to get down here
gosh crazy so slippery okay gosh - can't be down there?!
oh god i actually think i'm stuck at the first hurdle here
look at that it's just like a big slope
look at this path
this is crazy this is this is waterfall one
so far this is a bit sketchy
but i can see one of the falls see that over there
i think that's one of them i hope that's only one of them because i've not come for that
are you joking!? look there's another big set of stairs here i think i've gone the wrong way there you go
ah yeah that's the way it honestly doesn't look like there's been anybody here for month
there's a little construction site thing going on here
and somebody's wellies
maybe i can borrow the wellies and try and go through the river but i don't know what's going
on down here it's really strange i'm just at the bottom and there's just nothing going on
i feel very alone and look where you've got to go if you wanted to try and get through to there
if you want to get up here you've got to go through there and i mean anyone who knows
bali knows there are very poisonous snakes here and i'm not so sure about going through this
and just forging my way through to something i don't even know is there
so i'm pondering right now i'm not sure what to do okay well i just decided to forge through i'm
like about three steps in and i've just come across a massive spider sitting in its web
oh look there's loads of them. i bet i'm in one oh my god i'm getting out
this place should be named the dead end bridges this is just another bridge
it just goes straight into a cliff same up there
and straight into the cliff. what is going on down here i don't know but i'm giving up
this is not as fun - coming back up sucks
it really is super beautiful here but you do get a sense that you've come out of the
main tourist areas and into the wilderness a little bit because google maps kind of trips
up on itself the signposts don't really reflect where you're actually going and uh yeah it's all
just a little bit more confusing than i'm used to in bali but i think here we are
we're on a trail and we are going to what was supposed to be the last waterfall
this is going to be munduk falls also known as hang on
also known as air tejan waterfall so there's two names again makes it a little bit confusing
but it's the same thing i think there's basically two little falls in one place
yeah this is a much nicer trail i feel like i'm on to a winner - wish me luck
oh yes oh my gosh wow thank you so much
i just just got invited to come and look at some baby goats
i didn't really know what to expect but this is the cutest thing ever hello
hello
that's amazing thank you so much oh that was amazing people here are so friendly i was just
walking by and a lady came out she saw me taking photos and she was like do you want to take a
photo of a baby goat and i'm a little bit used to Canggu and i was oh how much is this going to cost
but i went for it and uh yeah she didn't want anything i bought some water off her in the
end but uh yeah i didn't want anything she was just happy to share and show her goats
and they're super cute awww i want a goat i don't think she'll like me when i take one back with me
okay i'm here at the bottom they've made these like little musical instruments that play
musical notes as the water comes passing through them it's really cool
and already i can see that this is definitely where i was supposed to be
in my last uh exploration wow this is amazing look at this guys wow this is wicked okay let's
have a good look around i'd say this is wow you can see how forceful that is that's amazing
so
wow what a place and i'll tell you what the big difference between this and places like ubud are..
i am the only person here at this absolutely gorgeous waterfall and i'm the only person
here i can't think of any waterfall i've ever been to where i'm the only person here except uh
ggc or ccg on the outskirts of ubud which was like a crazy hike to find
but this is crazy i mean it's so beautiful and just to feel like i'm the only one here
is so special i really want to try and go into the waterfall but it looks so ferocious but i
think i'm gonna have to try if i'm here i'm gonna have to try and get my head under so wish me luck
okay i'm doing this for you this is going to be freezing
already so cold check it out oh my gosh
oh my gosh
that was super cool but now it's time for something just a little bit more relaxing
i've come up to the munduk rice fields now there are areas like ubud and
changu which are super famous for the rice fields no talks about moon look
for rice fields but i'll tell you there are some absolutely stunning ones around here
it's so amazing to be just so high up in the mountains and just having the cloud cover
above us and just the rice fields here and the juxtaposition between the green rice fields and
the sort of dark green trees and forests and woods it's so it's amazing up here it really is amazing
and to get here this is the best part the best part is getting here because you go
through these like really old villages and really old traditional balinese towns
and it's just so so incredible to just see the balinese living their day-to-day lives
uninflicted by those horrible tourists so uh yeah i don't know how i feel about munduk
it's like i want to tell the world about it but at the same time i don't because it's just so
so special how quiet it is i'm just i'm in awe i'm in all of the rice fields i'm
going to go and sit and read my book somewhere and just chill out
so i had fully intended to hit up another two falls today but then it
chucked it down like grotesquely rained here i think that's one of the downsides of mundo
because we're so high up in the mountains it rains a lot and uh yeah i got kind of drenched
soaked the bone all of my stuff is soaking and i ended up just sitting in a little rung
restaurant for a couple of hours and just uh playing chess on my phone and uh talking to
a little french couple that were there which was kind of cool but yeah didn't make it to the falls
so yeah i'm going to wrap up my day i'm going to wrap up the vlog tomorrow i'm going to a new
place i'm going to this uh on the way back there's these twin lakes and on the twin lakes there's a
really cool temple that you'll have probably seen and around there there's a really nice
botanical garden so i'm gonna try and film all of that as well so uh yeah hopefully you've enjoyed
it guys if you have please like and subscribe it really helps me out yeah peace out homies
