Yesterday evening, while waiting for a friend, I was spending not less than an hour in the Aksara Book Store in the Plasa Indonesia shopping centre. There I found a book that one of the co-authors wrote on Bali, like this :"The wonderful thing about trying to understand the people of Bali is that the more you know the less you know. You can spend half a lifetime studying a particular and remote village in one part of Bali, and then discover, ten years later, that the next village, less than two miles away, adheres to social and religious structures that have little to do with things you have been studying for half a lifetime"
And I think to myself, how well do I know about my homeland ....
