Some of the photos I post here speak for themselves. The stunning location is pure magic, you might have never heard before, Mentigi Bay Dome Village in Lombok in Indonesia is one of the properties I offer on Airbnb. I am very proud that I became a Super Host since July 2016. This was hard but fun work for a few years. 

By the first look you will understand immediately, why everybody is making such a fuss about the sheer beauty & breathtaking views of Mentigi Bay ( Videoclip) only 20 minutes drive from Sengigi. 
This village is so charming with all palmtrees, frangipani and bougainvillea all nestled between lush vibrant green. I am sure all Yogis and Dancers will love it because staying at Mentigi Bay is a very unique adventure in pure nature where you can find peace.

Who is Bombay Bellyrina ? 

Much has been written, said and salivated about belly dance. Scant few have done it justice, or given it the respect it deserves. Chitra, more popularly known as 'Bombay Bellyrina', is on a mission to change that. Teaching since 2009, she is known across the country as a dancer who loves to blend different styles of dance and music, to create something fresh and new. Her latest video is proof of that, as she adds graceful belly dance moves to an Indian classical rendition of Billboard hit 'Cheap Thrills' by Sia. 
When she started out, belly dance was still viewed as a vulgar dance, reserved for dance bars and after-dark video channels. But she persevered, determined to show people what a powerful and graceful art form it is. Seven years on, India has opened up to the beauty of belly dance. She has seen hundreds on women flock to classes and workshops, eager to learn the dance and its history. 
She now encourages women to try belly dance not just for the beauty involved, but for the multiple fitness benefits it offers! 
Since its origin, belly dance has been used as a form of pre-natal and post-natal exercise. The gentle movements, hip tucks and muscle isolations help strengthen the core and pelvic muscles, thereby not only relieving the daily discomfort that most expectant mothers experience, but also easing the actual labor. It even accelerates the ante-natal healing process, and helps the new mother get back in shape after the delivery. 
The original recipe for a 'Yummy Mummy'! 
The fitness benefits of belly dance are many. An intensive yet low-impact cardio-vascular workout, a 90-min belly dance session can burn as many calories as the same duration of aerobics or Pilates, without risking injury to joints. With regular practice over time, the dancer's body is infused with improved flexibility, stamina, and strength. International icons like Shakira, Beyonce and Rihanna swear by belly dancing to keep their curves in the right places, and women across the globe are turning to this ancient art form for their fitness needs. Contrary to popular belief, it isn't only the abdominal region that's exercised. 
Belly dance works every part of the body, right from the calves to the shoulders and even the knuckles! 
Nandita Shetty, 25, has completed 4 levels of belly dance and can't wait to learn more. "Belly dancing has been one of the best things to happen to me", she says. "Apart from making you feel like a goddess, it's a brilliant workout. It'll help you find and beautifully express your inner sensuality… along with giving you killer toned calf muscles!" On a more holistic level, belly dance isn't just about knotting a coin-laden scarf around your hips and shaking about. It connects deeper. It unleashes a sensuality that most women not just lock away, but are sometimes even unaware of entirely. The muscle isolations can even help relieve menstrual cramps, and the gush of feel-good endorphins leaves the dancer aglow. As they dance and witness for themselves just what their bodies are capable of, they grow to accept and love their bodies. In the words of a student who believes belly dance has transformed her, "So what if I'm 3 times Cameron Diaz's size? I'd like to see her do what I can!" 
And best of all, there's no age limit to belly dance. 
Sybil D'Souza, 70, is an ardent fan of belly dancing, and the oldest and most enthusiastic student at Bellyrina Dance Academy. Says she," I always wanted to learn the art when I was younger, but never got the chance. Now that I've finally joined a class, I'm in love. It has me feeling like a girl of 17 again!" On the other end of the age spectrum is Ria, 8, who "loves showing my friends all the moves I learn. I especially love to shimmy and hear all the coins in my scarf jingle". So join in the shimmies with Bombay Bellyrina. She conducts workshops across the globe, and is available for performances, retreats and intensive workshops. Get shimmylicious! ~

Being the best " hostess the mostess " as possible allows me to find my balance and taking a break once in a while from a sometimes very tiring music business, booking DJ's in SE Asia.
