Zoë's Travel Guide

Catch up with Zoë on her recent travels through Bali and Thailand, two islands very close to her heart. Read her guide below on the best places for delicious whole foods and sanctuary-like yoga classes.

I recently travelled to Bali and Thailand with Morgan, two places that have a very special place in my heart. I first visited Bali when I was 13 years old, as Mum had really cool creative friends who lived there. 

Bali has changed so much in 30 years, but it’s still a very beautiful country and culture. The Balinese are amazing, there are so many skills in the hand-crafted department, so as a creative person, it’s a really fun place to go and manifest ideas. 

When we set up the business almost 20 years ago, we decided as siblings that we would meet in Bali annually to be able to spend time together as business owners, as whanau, and also to recharge. This Christmas we’ve rented a villa on Nusa Penida, and we will all be together. 

What inspires me about Bali? The nature, the plants, and planting styles. The amazing places to eat. The culture and amount of ceremonies and rituals.  

I’ll always make an effort to go to yoga classes and massage, so I come away feeling energized. It’s a destination that fills and inspires my being. 


Some places I like to practise yoga are: 

Yoga barn

Desa Seni

Samadi 

Some places I love to eat are: 

Dragon Tea Temple ~ if you like a cup of tea in the afternoon!

Shelter  - Such a good vibe here, make sure you book in advance. 

Alchemy - They have great places in both Ubud and Uluwatuand you can practise yoga there too - dream! 

We love to eat healthy whole foods, so if you’re in the Ubud area, it’s worth visiting Moksa.

Babu Indah for organic goodness, and beautiful bamboo structures. 

Water temple visit with Balinese priest. A purification ceremony in natural waterfalls. 

In terms of creativity Morgan and I spend time drawing, and dreaming! 

Love Z xx
