In Reply to: I met someone today who HATES Bali !! posted by Fabhaz on Monday, 19. March 2007 at 08:52 Bali Time:
I am leaving for Bali tomorrow and have spent most of the time leading up to this holiday worrying as so many people gave me that same look of horror when I told them where we were going. I ended up not telling anyone else because I couldn't handle their negative attitude - it made me feel nervous and irresponsible. The only thing that kept me positive was this forum (which I absolutely love!) All my questions and doubts were reassured by everyone who replied to my various questions and worries - thanks heaps!!Half the fun of a holiday is the excitement leading up to it and its a shame that people feel they have the right to ruin that excitement. I must admit I have my own opinions about decisions people make - whether its their holiday destination or what they choose to do for recreation etc... but I respect their free choice and keep my opinions to myself. Unfortunately we live in a world now that is not really safe no matter where we go so its always important to be careful and sensible. But for now I'm going to start getting excited and enjoy my holiday in beautiful Bali!!
