Jia Curated, Day One of Five 🌊

First lap of Jia Curated done, walking the whole site before settling on favourites.
The FORMAT × Kayou Tori Stool stopped me in my tracks. Named for the torii gate, it's a proper dialogue between wood and metal, stackable and built for flexible everyday use. Simple concept, beautifully resolved.

Also drawn into @exotiscape's world, a Bali-based aquascape and paludarium studio building miniature rainforests and aquatic landscapes indoors. Genuinely different from anything else on site.

And a lovely find at @moonjar_design, tiles by Ana, originally from Ukraine and now calling Bali home. Warm, textured work, a gorgeous glazed wall.

Rounded off the walk with a glass from @sababaywinery, Bali's own, because a proper design crawl calls for a proper drink.

Four more days to go courtesy of @jia.curated.

🧮 Melbournians love a laneway, and Glodok has more than we could count: car-sized ones, scooter-sized ones, and the pedestrian-only alleys where you'd never fit either.

Temples appear at every turn: Buddhist, Taoist, even a Catholic church with a distinctly Chinese Jesus, with shops nearby selling paper offerings to burn as gifts for the afterlife. Want the latest iPhone in the next world?

At a centuries-old apothecary, the abacus is still in daily use. Barbers double as ear cleaners. Fruits and vegetables, familiar and unfamiliar, like edible reeds (Alang alang), white tumeric, and yellow dragon fruit.

We're working out how to bring you here properly.

A few more days to catch Paris Through the Lens exhibition in Sydney and Melbourne 🇫🇷

It's been such a pleasure seeing people wander through the exhibitions in Melbourne and Sydney, chatting about Paris, cinema, photography and travel.
If you haven't had a chance to visit yet, there's still time:

📷 Melbourne – Dawn & Mabel's, St Kilda, until 2 August

📷 Sydney – Mali Ston, with the exhibition closing soirée and bon voyage party on 6 August 6pm www.maliston.com.au

The framed photographs and signed books are still available, so if a little piece of Paris has caught your eye, now's your chance before they head back across the world.

Hope to see you there or in Paris 🇫🇷

A little excerpt from my 94.1FM interview with Jerry Guirguis, chatting about Paris Through the Lens and The Movie Lover's Guide to Paris.

If you're in Melbourne, the Paris Through the Lens exhibition at Dawn & Mabel's in St Kilda is on until 2 August—drop by if you missed the launch!

A day with Made Masak, nomadic chef and forager extraordinaire, courtesy of the Ubud Food Festival, and Tabanan Regency delivered on every front.

We started at Alit's farm, where the living fertiliser machines (Balinese cows, doing their bit) share the land with passionfruit the size of small melons. Huge, sweet, but with none of the tartness you'd expect. Fiona meanwhile found her calling as a foraging faux radio announcer, narrating our experience with her torch ginger (kecombrang) mic with real commitment.

Alit then scaled a living bamboo ladder to reach the palm syrup source, which becomes either alcohol or sugar depending purely on how quickly and how you process it.

Further along, what looked suspiciously like a nest of dragon eggs turned out to be salak, snake fruit.

We foraged a little ourselves under Made's patient instruction, though "helped" might be generous, then handed everything to the local community kitchen team, who turned our modest haul into a proper feast. The kind of day that reminds you why we build these itineraries around people like Made in the first place.

Pantai Cemara, named for the she-oak trees that shade this stretch of coast.

Restaurant culture isn't really a Sumbanese tradition, which makes this beachfront eatery something of a rarity. We came for the Kuah Assam, a tamarind fish soup that's sharp, sour and completely addictive. Worth the detour.
