On one particular travel, I found myself on a small island off Bali called Nusa Lembongan. Despite a handful of large luxurious hotels, this place is still mainly untouched by modern society. Hiring a motorbike for the day can get you around the whole island, and you will see another world. Grass huts line the streets in the more remote places, but the main stand out is the Gala Gala underground house.
Owned by Made Byasa, the house was built underground using only a hammer, chisel and intuition as guidance. It took 15 years to complete this incredible labyrinth, which includes a bedroom, dining room, kitchen, bathroom and sacred meditation room.
A take along a token donation and a sarong, leave the claustrophobia at home for this one
