"The cooking class with Oki and his family was amazing. They were all so friendly and welcoming and it was great to experience cooking an Indonesian meal with them. Most of all we enjoyed just chatting with them and exchanging stories. A beautiful family and definitely a highlight of our time in Indonesia already."
