Conversational Hypnosis

Conversational hypnosis is a little different from conventional hypnosis and is useful with persuasion techniques through the theories of neuro linguistic programming. I will attempt to give a brief overview in this article and then recommend a higher accredited source that you can gain education from.

CONVENTIONAL HYPNOSIS

Conventional hypnosis uses a monitored environment that gives total control to the hypnotizer. A "hypnotic induction" is then used to put the participant in a state of suggestibility. Now a hypnotic induction is something that you have seen in all the cliché movies and cartoons where a watch is swung in front of someone and then they are told to relax. This has a "whisker" of truth to it because generally an induction will involve the hypnotizer giving the participant instructions to relax their body, mind and proceed to then take them to a memory or scenario of suggestibility. This is simply an example and there are many different techniques.

CONVERSATIONAL HYPNOSIS

Conversational hypnosis is what it sounds like, it is the art of being able to have a conversation with someone and put them into a suggestive state. This basically uses the theories of neuro linguistic programming, which are about how we are programmed to react to certain words and using these reactions and specific words to give the hypnotizer a way to put the participant into a suggestive state. So this kind of hypnosis is very powerful because it allows the hypnotizer to use these techniques in any environment such as job interviews, public speaking, business meetings and even sports coaching. A good example is when you are at a motivational seminar and the presenter uses words and phrases as "wealth", "freedom", "happiness" with examples of walking on the beach with a loved one. You generally walk out of these seminars in a motivational and positive state along with everyone else. This is a very basic example but hopefully it helps to explain this theory.

FURTHER EDUCATION

These theories are taught by an individual called Igor Ledochowski and he is definitely the best person to learn from. Have a look at this source for more information.

I have been in IT for a while and I have to say that it does not matter what you do success relates to relationship building and how you deal with people. These theories have helped so much.

Travel & Tourism | Cruise Weddings, Are They Worth It?

If you're looking for something different from a church wedding, something very romantic and memorable, consider having your wedding on a cruise ship. It is actually quite reasonably priced, and there are many options to choose from.

You may think that having a wedding on a cruise ship would be expensive for your guests to attend, but wait, they don't have to go on the cruise if you have your ceremony on the ship before it departs! On Carnival Cruise Line ships, for example, up to 50 non-cruise guests can attend your wedding. This gives your guests a nice option to be included in your wedding festivities without bearing the expense of the cruise. Furthermore, those guests that do go on the cruise with you can celebrate with you for the duration of the cruise.

Of course, you'll still have your private time, but there is absolutely nothing like taking a cruise with people you know and care about. I'm a huge advocate of group cruising. It is so much fun! There are always things to do on the ship, and the ships are large enough to find your own special place, too. You can dance the night away to live music under the stars, go to one of the disco clubs, or take in a show. Food and drink is plentiful, too, so no one will go hungry, no matter what time it is.

The cruise lines supply a wedding coordinator to help you with every detail of your special day. You and your guests will receive priority boarding if your ceremony is on the ship prior to departure. You need to book early, as cruise lines only allow a certain number of wedding groups per cruise. Your wedding coordinator will be assigned to you only after you have booked your cruise.

The other options available to you are weddings at sea, and destination weddings at a port of call. These are a bit more complex to arrange and therefore will take more time to plan, but can be as exquisite as you desire. Not all cruise lines perform at sea weddings, so be sure to check before you set your heart on a particular cruise itinerary or cruise line. At this time, Azamara, Celebrity, and Princess cruise lines are the only ones that perform at sea weddings with the captain of the ship performing the ceremony.

Those guests that join you on the cruise will get a great price too, as they will be booked at group rates which are significantly lower than individual rates. A "group", for most cruise lines is 10 people, so this accommodates most wedding parties quite well. Though any size group can be accommodated if booked far enough in advance, cruise weddings are ideal for smaller groups. Let me give you an example. I have a client right now that is planning a wedding with approximately 30 guests; just close friends and family. It is a second wedding for both bride and groom, so they didn't want a huge wedding like they each had before. The wedding ceremony performed by a local wedding Officiant, and an hour and a half reception that includes wedding cake, champagne toast, open bar, and hot and cold hors d'oeuvres will cost them in the neighborhood of $2000. That price does not include the cost of the cruise, of course, as that is their honeymoon, but it does include the bridal bouquet and groom's boutonniere, a two-tier wedding cake, sparkling wine and chocolate covered strawberries in the couple's stateroom, wedding music, a photographer, and 2 champagne flutes. Upgrades are available, as well. For this couple, the cruise wedding is ideal, and will be a very memorable experience not only for them, but their guests, as well.

So close your eyes and let your mind create pictures of your cruise wedding. What do you see? If you find yourself smiling while thinking about it, you're probably on the right track! Your wedding day is probably one of the most important days of your life. It can be everything you ever dreamed of and even more! Consider having your wedding on a cruise ship. You'll have the time of your life, and so will your guests!

Bandung Culinary Guide

Bandung Culinary Guide

Many people visit Bandung, the capital of West Java province, to pamper their taste buds. You'll be amazed with what Bandung has to offer. From various food sold on street vendors to haute cuisine, every visitor will be able to find something to their liking here, in Bandung.

Sundanese (the people living in West Java are called Sundanese) has tempting refreshments. Sundanese food tends to be bland yet tasty unless you add sambal dadak (chili and other ingredients grinded together) to your food. If you're looking for more spicy taste, just add this sambal dadak with nasi timbel (steamed rice formed into a roll inside a banana leaf) and other specialties. This mouthwatering treat is too good to be missed! Usually sour vegetables soup (sayur asam) is accompanied by nasi timbel.

Sundanese people eat vegetables a lot. Sometimes they even eat raw vegetables (called lalap or lalapan) like cucumbers, tomatoes, coriander leaves, eggplants, cabbages, lettuces, and so on. Lalapan is usually accompanied by sambal dadak.

Probably one of the most well known dish, timbel, consists of nasi timbel, lalapan, sambal dadak, a piece of chicken (fried or roasted Sundanese style), fried beancurd, fried tempeh, a slice of jambal (salted fish). If you want to, you can add gepuk (slices of beef, mixed in traditional herbs, then fried), pepes (main ingredients such as fish, chicken, mushroom, etc. mixed with crushed and blended herbs, folded into a banana leaf, then steamed until they're ready to eat), sauteed greens, and others. Nasi timbel is a favorite among locals and visitors. Batagor baso tahu goreng (literally means, fried meatballs & beancurd) is one of the most well-sought specialty. Made from blended fish and beancurd, with a special peanut sauce, batagor's popularity remains constant.


People with sweet tooth might fancy pisang molen, an Indonesian traditional pastry filled with banana and cheese. For a variation, try brownies kukus (steamed brownies). Es cendol, made of blended/grinded rice, palm sugar, and coconut milk, is delightful on a hot day. While for a colder day, you might want a taste of bandrek or bajigur.

Bandung also offers various milk products most notably, yoghurt. Basically there are two kinds of yoghurt in Bandung the thin one, and the thick one (French style).

Hot snacks ala Bandung are widely sold throughout the city. Among them are gehu-toge tahu- (beancurd with beansprouts and vegetables filling), pisang goreng (fried banana), cireng-aci goreng- (fried tapioca), and many more. You might be interested in trying other snacks such as, nangka goreng (fried jackfruit), peuyeum goreng (fermented cassava, fried), nanas goreng (fried pineapple), and so on. Ketan bakar (roasted sticky rice) and jagung bakar/rebus (roasted/boiled corns) are also recommended.

Nasi goreng (fried rice), although not originally from Bandung, is always the locals' favorite. The ingredients vary, according to people's preference. Sometimes the rice is mixed with seafood (usually shrimps, pieces of cuttlefish, pieces of crab's flesh), chicken and vegetables, mutton and vegetables, salted fish, and so on.

Cakue, a dish made of flour dough then fried, is also worth a try.

Bandung also has other kinds of restaurants, like Padangese (food from West Sumatra, very spicy in taste), Javanese (sweeter in taste), Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Western, Indian, and so on.



Getting There

Fondly called Parahyangan meaning, Land of the Gods, Bandung has both metropolitan and homey atmosphere at the same time. Full of eateries, factory outlets, and malls, many people find going on a trip to Bandung both enjoyable and memorable.

Ways to reach Bandung from Jakarta may be as many as to Rome, so to speak. You can ride trains, buses, or use the many shuttle services with hourly schedules. Flights are less favored because the time it takes to travel to Jakarta's airport (Soekarno Hatta) and check in may take longer than travelling by car.


Getting Around

If you have multiple destinations in mind, you'd better rent a car for a day (or two). There are taxi services in major streets and malls. Other parts of the cities mostly use public transportation called angkots, which are only recommended if you actually live in Bandung.


To Stay

Bandung has it all, cozy little inns to five-starred hotels. Just click the Find a Hotel button. Or see our Travel Directory (West Java --> Kota Bandung).
 


To Eat

For a taste of nasi timbel and other Sundanese food, you can try the restaurants mentioned below. There are many others, though, so while you're in Bandung, you might be able to spot other restaurants selling tasty food.

    BUMBU DESA
    Jalan Pasirkaliki 160, Bandung
    Jalan Laswi 1, Bandung
    Traditional food with elegant surrounding.

    BALE GAZEEBO
    Jalan Surapati 49
    Wide place, where you can eat while lesehan (sitting on the floor without chairs) or using a chair.

    SINDANG RERET
    Jalan Raya Cikole Km 22
    Jalan Raya Propinsi Ciwidey, Kabupaten Bandung
    Jalan Surapati 53

    Jalan Dr. Junjunan 107, Bandung
    Modernized Sundanese cooking.

    KELAPA LAGOON
    Jalan Sumatera 9
    Chic place. Tasty but the price is higher than other Sundanese restaurants.

    RAOS, KARYA UMBI
    Both are located in Jalan Cihampelas.

Jalan Cihampelas happens to be the central of jeans stores, so you might want to look around some more. And there's more of course. Which is why Bandung is the shopping capital of West Java.


Tips

  • If you plan to go to Bandung often, buy a complete map in major book stores. It's a great investment. That way you might save some money. Instead of renting a car, for instance, you can maximize the public transportation to bring you anywhere you want to go.
  • If you're not certain of local customs, language, menu, etc. don't hesitate to ask!
  • It is advisable to learn a few important phrases in Indonesian. Not all Indonesians can speak English well.

Bali: Simply the World's Best Island

Bali: Simply the World's Best Island

Bali: Simply The Best IslandProbably the most famous island in Indonesia, and probably is more well known for its beautiful beaches. 

Bali has been awarded the World's Best Island 2009 by Travel & Leisure Magazine (www.travelandleisure.com)

Bali is also called the Land of the Gods, due to its sheer beauty and miraculous sceneries. Bali will appeal to both urbanites and suburbanites, for this exotic island has many things to offer, from sophisticated dining and meeting experience to exhilarating treks in the wild. Indeed, this relatively small island contains lots of miracles.

A miracle indeed, for after all these years, Bali still can amaze both local and international visitors. You can find interesting variety of people here, from the ones who prefer to surf in the beaches of Kuta, Sanur, Jimbaran, Uluwatu, Dreamland, Nusa Dua and others, to people who love the serene view of the mountains and lakes in Batur, Kintamani, and Beratan Lake in Bedugul. People continue to flock to Bali, for it serves as a beacon of good time filled with magical moments.


Getting There

Bali: Simply The Best Island - ReefWith the increasing number of direct flight to Bali from some other parts of the world, it makes it easier to go to Bali. From Bali, flight to Jakarta is about 1.5 hours, to Singapore and Perth (Australia) 2.5 and 3 hours, to Hong Kong about 4.5 hours, and to Sydney/Melbourne about 5.5 to 6 hours, with various airlines offering their services.

Just make sure you look for "Denpasar (DPS)" instead of "Bali" in airline time tables. It is the capital of Bali. And the international airport's name is Ngurah Rai.

Another way to reach the island is by ferry, crossing from Banyuwangi, East Java for 30 to 45 minutes to Ketapang. From Bali, you can also reach Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara through Padang Bay seaport with transit at Lembar seaport for a total of 4 hours of travel.

Of course, you can always check your travel agents for more travel arrangements.


Getting Around

Bali: Simply The Best Island - Pura

There are many modes of transport to help you get around in Bali. A variety of excellent half day, full day and overnight tour packages are available from your hotel desk or any of the numerous travel agents and tour operators which abound in Bali. Or you can find a car and driver who will also act as your guide.

 Whilst walking about, you will be barraged with constant questions of "Transport, transport?". Competition is tight and many drivers know several languages. Tell the driver your desired route and negotiate a fee.

An important virtue to have while on the road in Bali is patience! Although the road system in the heavily populated areas is quite reasonable (condition wise) in comparison to other developing countries, it can be heavily congested at peak periods. Ceremonial processions often overtake the whole road so if you're caught behind a procession, enjoy the colorful experience.



To Do

Too many to mention. You'll realize it soon after arriving. Part of the miracle of Bali is that, even in modern life, most Balinese still adhere to their unique traditions, especially the Hindu ones. Spirits are respected and sometimes worshipped, and rituals have integrated themselves into the daily lives of the local people. Many artists consider Bali both as a haven and heaven. Too many people have tried to capture the spirit of Bali into paintings, sculptures, even writings and more will continue to do so. Bali provides endless fascination and inspiration. Hence international, annual event like Ubud Readers and Writers Festival.  

But enough about inspiration. How about perspiration? Bali: Simply The Best Island - Surfing

A number of beaches in this island are the favorite resorts for surfers. While some others offer variety of water sports or family recreation, such as banana boats, parasailing or jetskiing.

In the northern part of Bali, there are Kuta Beach, Sanur, Jimbaran, Uluwatu, Dreamland, and Nusa Dua, to name a few. While on the other side there are the attractive Lovina, Amed, and Tulamben beach. For mountainous nuance, devotees will find Batur Lake at Kintamani and Beratan Lake at Bedugul to their liking.

Other than Bali, there are number of small islands nearby like Nusa Penida or Nusa Lembongan. Both small beautiful islands also have nature fascinating sceneries.


To Stay

Many beautiful resorts offer fine lodgings. Most of the starred hotels are located near the beach. Otherwise, they usually have their own private spots at certain beaches. You can find them easily at popular spots like Kuta or Sanur.

Bali: Simply The Best IslandIf you're in a serene highland like Ubud, forget starred hotels. You're there to embrace the atmosphere. Just pick one of the small lodgings lining up the streets. And even the smallest one's ready to make you feel welcome.

During the 2007 Ubud Readers and Writers Festival, a man in a wheelchair checked in at a small inn on Monkey Forest. He had some difficulties in navigating through the stairs to his bungalow. He then left for the Festival. When he returned at night, the owner had already paved an ascending lane to his bungalow. That's a typical Balinese hospitality.

When you've already picked a certain destination in Bali, just check out our Travel Directory. See what options are near.


To Eat

Like the food of other regions in Indonesia, Balinese staple food is rice, served with small portions of spicy, pungent vegetables, fish or meat and served almost always with sambal or chili paste. Bali is a few of the regions in Indonesia whose majority of its people are non Muslims, thus babi guling or roasted suckling pig is a specialty, as is bebek betutu, smoked stuffed duck wrapped in bamboo leaves.

In Jimbaran area, for instance, you can sample seafood dishes while sitting on the beach. Visit this place in the evening, the cool atmosphere and caressing breeze will make your dining experience remarkable.



To Buy

There are thousands of giftshops in Bali. For the information click this link:

http://www.balitourismboard.org/mall_and_traditional-market.html


Tips

Here are some tips if you're driving on your own.

Remember to "hoot" your horn when going around curves on mountainous roads as it is very common to drive in the middle of the road here. There are a lot of one way roads in Bali. If you miss your turn off you may have to drive quite a distance before being able to turn back. Be alert!

We highly recommend you fill up at any of the numerous government owned petrol stations. In more remote areas at stalls by the side of the road sell bottles of clear liquid. The quality may not be as good as at the petrol station and could cause damage to the rental car.

The Great Temple Of Borobudur

The Great Temple Of Borobudur

Borobudur temple is an ancient site once considered one of the world's seven wonders. Built in the 9th century, this temple has Gupta architecture of India's influence. Constructed on a hill about 46 meters high, Borobudur has about 55,000 m3 of stones. And it was built without using any kind of cement or mortar at all! The structure's like a massive interlocking Lego blocks without any glue.And it stays strong and firm even after going through ten centuries until it was rediscovered in 1815, buried under volcanic ashes.

Borobudur's design symbolizes the structure of the universe. This terraced ceremonial structure consists of six levels below a square-shaped level, and three levels above a circular level, with a Buddhist stupa on the top. Stupas are also found on every level. This design influences temples in Angkor, Cambodia.

Another interesting feature of Borobudur is that it does not have a worship room like other temples; there are long and narrow alleys with walls surrounding the temple on every level. In these alleys, it is believed that Buddhists perform a walking ceremony around the temple by circling it to the right. This type of roomless building and multiple levels is believed to be an evolution in terraced structures, and symbolizes the original architecture of the Indonesian pre-history era.

Situated about 41 kilometers northward from Jogjakarta, Borobudur offers spectacular sight in this modern world. No doubt, this great temple will always be in the mind of those who visit it.



Getting There

Borobudur is only 1 hour away by car from Jogjakarta. You can either join a tour or rent a car to this spot.

During your journey to Borobudur, you can also enjoy the fresh cool air of Magelang city with its roads lined with big and shady trees. Borobudur itself stands tall against the Menoreh mountain range that surrounds it.

Entering the temple compound is easy. You can do it on foot. Or you can chart a cart (pulled by a horse) at a reasonable price.


Getting Around

Explore this site on foot. Climb this magnificent temple and marvel at various carvings on the stone around you.

For visitors with children, you will not want to miss the massive green grass around Borobudur site. You will certainly miss a great experience if you visit the great temple without knowing its history and importance which are captured on its many reliefs.

There are also guides to walk you around as they explain the history of this site, built during the Syailendra dynasty, for only Rp50 thousand (about US$5.00). Many philosophies can be studied about the meaning of life from the reliefs of this temple.

To save money, you may choose to walk through Green Park from the entrance. Although there may be many vendors who would chase and offer you souvenirs, they would do so in an orderly manner. Regulation says that they are not allowed to disturb visitors.


To Do

For better understanding of this temple, you can join a tour or hire a licensed tour guide here.

Marvel at the magnificent view. Climb the temple to reach the top, where you can see an vacant space signifying emptiness as completion. Feel the wind blowing gently. Try that Titanic pose if you want. This temple won't be hitting any icebergs.



To Stay

You can choose the many inns and hotels in Jogjakarta, from a simple bed & breakfast to starred hotels. Just look at our Travel Directory and search for hotels in DI Jogjakarta.


To Eat

Jogjakarta is your best bet for some chow time. Read our Jogjakarta's Dining Guide for more information.


Tips

  • Come during a full moon. Once a year, the Waisak festival is held under a full moon. Waisak is a Buddhist holiday for holding prayers. There will be special ceremonies. If you're into cultural festival, this is the best time to visit.
  • Dress lightly and comfortably.
  • Hire a licensed tour guide, so you'll get better information.
  • During a dry season, you should wear a hat or an umbrella for protecting yourself from the sun or the occasional shower. You can rent one forRp2,000 (about US $0.18)

Do It The Dayak Way

When visiting Palangkaraya, just look outside of your aircraft window and you will see the green field of nature below cut by a small river with slow course twisting to the downstream passing the mangrove forest. The flow is similar to the head of dragon with endless body.

When forest area seems to be distantly spaced and clear, Palangkaraya city will appear as though coming out of the tropical forest. Central Kalimantan is full with tourism and natural resources potentials. Plantation, forestry, fishery, mining and husbandry might attract curious visitors. Moreover, the diversity of the ethnic groups is interesting. Three major Dayak tribes inhabiting this region are Ngaju, Ot Danum, and Dusun Ma'anyan tribe.

Curious? Just go out of your routine and enjoy the differences by involving yourself in the way of life of a Dayak.
 


Getting There

By Garuda Indonesia Airlines' domestic flights direct to Palangkaraya three times everyday. From Palangkaraya, you should book a travel package which includes a visit to a Dayak village. Some packages even include staying with them.


Getting Around

You need to return to Palangkaraya to rent a car or book a customized trip package where you can ask the guide to show you around wherever you want. The guide will give you a prediction on how long it should take to get there and what you should do to make the experience enjoyable.

Palangkaraya
Palangkaraya, In the local Dayak language, Palangkaraya means 'holy container'. Palangkaraya can easily be reached from Jakarta, Banjarmasin, Samarinda, Balikpapan and other points on the island by air. The town has become the center of government, trade and education of the province. The Regional Museum of Palangkaraya contains a collection of historical and cultural interest from all over Central Kalimantan.

Here are some other places you can visit while going to or from the Dayak village.



To Do

If you want to know further about Dayak tribe, learn Dayak traditional dances and music instruments, like plucked stringed instruments and drums.
 
The Ngaju Dayak tribe, the most popular Dayak tribe occupying around Kahayan and Kapuas River, is known of its arts. Especially  wooden-coffins with elevated cemeteries, dead ships and high memorial statues.

 Ot Danum tribe inhabits around the River to the north of Ngaju inhabitant and to the south of range of Schwaner and Muller mountains. Ot Danum tribe lives in long-shape houses with 2-5 meter pillars over the ground. One house has about 50 rooms. This long-shape house is locally called as betang.

Ot Danum tribe is known of its skill of plaiting rattan, palm leave and bamboo. They still follow the ways of their ancestors. The Ma'anyan village tribe still practices the spirit heart, agriculture ritual, complex mortality ceremony. And they still call a shaman whenever they need some healing. The cemeteries indicate social hierarchy. The range of noble cemetery is situated at the upstream of the River, followed with soldier cemetery, ordinary community cemetery to the downstream, and cemetery for slave is situated in the downstream's edge.

 


To Stay

The village provides home-staying services. While staying there, you can learn things like craftmanship or traditional cooking.

To Eat

For those who lead an active life might be tempted to follow the local fisherman to fish. Fishing technique ranges from using fishing rod to using their unique-style seine. There is nothing like feasting on the fish that you have caught yourself!

Then to top it all, you can go hunting with locals for deers or wild boars. Dayak tribes make a living by clearing away forests and they have a unique hunting method. They do not actively pursue the animals, but somehow lure them to approach the Dayak people.

How can they manage to do that? They have a unique method in attracting the animals. When hunting deers, they imitate the sound of a young deer. Since does always protect their youngsters, the female deer will approach as soon as they hear the sound for help.

In hunting, they use lances or blowpipes. A blowpipe's size is long and it also functions as a lance. Blowpipe needles used for hunting are smeared with poisonous concoction that will paralyze or even kill.

Visit the Land of Heaven

According to myth and legend, the single ancestor of the Toraja people originated from heaven. This myth passed into legend as it was told from generation to generation. Today the people of Toraja continue telling the myth that the first ancestor of the Toraja used "stairway to go down from heaven", the functioned of this stairway was as a media to communicate with Puang Matua (The Only One God).

The name of Toraja was given by the Bugis Sidendereng tribe and the people of Luwu. The Sidendereng people named the population of this region "Riaja" ("The first people inhabiting the upper part of country or mountainous area"). In the meantime, the people of Luwu called these people "Riajang" ("People inhabiting in the west"). Another version is the word 'Toraya' coined from To (Tau = people), and Raya (coined from the word Maraya = great). The two words together mean "great people", or noble man. Eventually, the term morphed into Toraja. The word "Tana" means country. The Toraja inhabitants were eventually known as Tana Toraja.

Tanah Toraja is a fascinating tourist destination known for its many cultures. This regency, situated about 350 km to the north of Makassar, is known for its traditional house style. The traditional house is called "Tongkonan". The roof is made of palm or coconut leaves and has a life expectancy of about 50 years before needing replacement. This Tongkonan also has a stratum in line with its community nobility hierarchy categorized as gold, bronze, iron and brass. Another attraction in Tanah Toraja is rambu solo, the traditional burial ceremony which is note worthy primarily because of the children's graves being within living trees. The children are buried in Tarra tree trunks at Kambira Kampong, Sangalla village, about 20 kilometers from Rantepao. These graves were prepared for children of 0-7 years. This children's burial right has not been performed in tens of years. However, the trees in which the children are buried are still growing and visited by many tourists. The fruit of the Tarra tree is similar to breadfruit and consumed by the locals, primarily in a vegetable soup.

These trees have an average 3.5 meter diameter trunk that still stores tens children's bodies. Before a corpse is put in the tree trunk, the trunk is hollowed and the hole is covered with black coconut tree fibers. After tens of years, the child's body becomes one with the tree. This melding of the tree and the child's remains has an attractive power for visitors, and the Tanah Toraja community still considers this a holy place with the same esteem as the children contained in the trees. The Placement of children's bodies within the tree trunk is also adjusted to their social stratum. The higher the family's social stratum, the higher the burial place in the Tarra tree trunk is.

Julia Roberts Begins Filming in Bali

Julia Roberts Begins Filming in Bali
Village Demonstrators Seeking Compensation from Filmmakers Mar Start of Bali Filming of 'Eat Pray Love.'

Bali News: Julia Roberts Begins Filming in Bali
(10/23/2009) Oscar-winning Hollywood star Julia Roberts has arrived in Bali for what is expected to be a month-long filming of the Bali portion of Elizabeth Gilbert's novel "Eat Pray Love."

Gilbert's best-selling autobiographical recounting of her post-divorce travels in Italy, India and Bali is to become a Columbia Pictures (Sony) film starring Roberts, Javier Bardem and Richard Jenkins.

Bali filming is centered on areas in and around Ubud and Bali's southernmost beach with cast and crew staying in various five star hotels on the island.

Filming got off to less than a smooth start on Thursday, October 15, 2009, when the villagers of the village of Benyutung demanded Rp. 200 million (US$20,000) in compensation for the use of their village in the film. This demand, according to local press reports in Bali, was precipitated by rumors of large sums being paid to other Bali locations being used in the film.

The Regent of Gianyar, Tjokorda Oka Artha Ardana Sukawati (Cok Ace), is reportedly mediating local villagers' demands with the film's production team.

Filming is also scheduled to take place in Ubud's famous monkey forest in Padangtegal, Nyuh Kuning, Pengosekan and the traditional art market in Ubud.

Cok Ace, who is also the leader of Ubud's royal household, has issued a special invitation to Julia Roberts to his Palace for dinner. It remains to be seen, however, if the notoriously reclusive star will set aside time on her schedule for visits with Cok Ace or Bali's governor.

Those hoping to steal a look at Julia Roberts or a Hollywood film in production may be disappointed. Elaborate security perimeters are being set up at filming locales that keep the general public at a minimum distance of 500 meters.
