work experience

Last week, Sally Garrett and I did a work placement at Billabong Indonesia. The first day on the job, we got to organize a whole photo and video shoot for Billabong Asia to go on Australian and Asian TV. The campaign was about "WIN A TRIP TO BALI!", on Tuesday we got to do the photo and video shoot, we woke up before sunrise and headed to Nusa Dua beach, we starting filming us running with the surf boards, playing on the beach, and in the water. At lunch time we headed to a small warung in Kuta, after we finished our lunch, we went to Halfway Kuta Beach for the surfing part of the video. That was such a loooooong day, wow! The rest of the week was pretty boring, just stayed in the office and did paperwork. We went to a meeting at the warehouse in Denpasar about a family fun day for the Billabong staff in September, then we sponsored Febri Biawak Hansa, a Javanese boy who is like a little brother to me. We decided to sponsor him not only because he rips in the water, but also because he has no place to live, no income, and no education here in Bali. Billabong is now providing for him by sending him to school, giving him a salary and a place to live. Febri has always been like a little brother to me, he is my everything. We grew up together and i have known him since he came to Bali, he lived with me a couple of years ago for a few months, such a great kid, i'm so proud of him Work experience was a good eye opener, we had fun and boring times, but all i know, is that i NEVER want to work in an office. That's that.

every day is a holiday

Summer holidays are always exciting and fun! My summer holidays were pretty fun, I can't really explain what I did specifically but usually just went to the beach almost every day as per usual, sleeping in of a morning, waking up at lunch time, heading down to Padma for a chilled afternoon, sunset drinks with the crew, you know how Bali lifestyle is. There was a few birthdays and parties going on, and in Bali, any occasion is a cause for a celebration. I went to a couple of surf comps with Aysia, she came in 2nd place for the Legian Beach Festival Contest at Padma Beach, another cause for a celebration. A week or 2 later, I went with Nadia, Marketing Coordinator of Billabong Indonesia, to another surf contest down at Halfway, we met up with Sally, Reo, Frances and the Padma Boys. Nadia and I went home early to get ready for the Beach Live Summer Music Festival in front of Beachwalk, and what a night! Probably one of the best nights I've had! Such a great way to end my holidays, I can't wait for the next one!
