I spent four days in Kuta to get settled, expecting to deal with some jet lag—but surprisingly, it never hit me. Kuta was a great place to ease into the trip. I did a lot of walking, with the beach about two miles away, and made a point to visit daily to enjoy the sights and start adjusting to the heat and humidity.
I kept things pretty low-key for most of the stay, just soaking in the atmosphere. On the final day, I visited Uluwatu Temple and watched the evening Fire Dance, which was definitely a highlight. Even though I didn’t do much sightseeing overall, I still managed to take plenty of photos.
