Bea and Art’s Road to Bali
We are so looking forward to seeing you at our wedding at Cooling Castle Barn - we’re hoping it’s going to be a fabulous day.
We jet off on July 9th for a stunning month long tour of South East Asia. We have been planning, dreaming and scheming for 2 years now and we can’t believe it’s nearly here.
From London we’re flying to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. From there we’ll Journey to Kota Kinabalu, where we’ll climb Mount Kinabalu, visit the hot springs and visit an Orang-Utan sanctuary.
Onwards to Kuching, Sarawak where we’ll stay in a tree house and go sea kayaking. Flying on to Singapore where cocktails at the famous Raffles Hotel await
Then onto Yogykarta and overland to Surabaya and finally to the amazing Bali to lounge on idylic beaches.
Sadly we we’ll be returning to Kuala Lumpur to catch our flight home. We’re already planning ways to ‘accidentally’ miss it.
With your help we should be able to have the time of our life!
