I find myself sitting in one of the benches under the glorious mango tree, its branches widely outstretched, coiled with cascading tendrils of vine. I relish the cool breeze and the holy hush of verdant scenery and catch myself wondering why it took me this long to return. I lament my overindulgence during the holiday season and look forward to giving my system a reboot, here at what is considered to be one of the top wellness sanctuaries in Asia—The Farm at San Benito.
Whenever I travel, I tend to obsess about restaurants to try. I tried to chill a little this time and stick to places that were accessible. Luckily, this place was.
The ride
I must admit, I was a little disappointed about this tour. It was featured on Conde Nast Traveler and described as a luxurious experience but it was a letdown. First of all, it was pouring hard when the tour started and the rain was seeping inside the windows and over the roof of the land rover. We had to position ourselves a certain way to keep from getting wet.
A less-scrubbed neighbor of Seminyak, Legian offers more affordable lodging options while giving you the same view of the legendary Bali sunset.
I like my food served with atmosphere. This restaurant had plenty of both.
I fell in love with the beach and sunset in Seminyak the last time I visited Bali so when I went back for a post-birthday treat this year I made sure to stay in the area.

It’s been almost two weeks since the year started and I realize I have not given it a proper welcome. Nice to have you, 2012. Please treat me and the people I love wonderfully, blissfully well.
