October 2011
Well we've done it. Leased a house for 40 years in Nyuh Kuning, one of the 17 villages in Ubud (the best one if you ask Janet and me). The house is 5 minutes into town, about 20 minutes to Green School (where the boys go), and is on a dead end lane on a dead end street. Nice and quiet... yet close to everything. The land is about 1/3 of an acre, with a nice view of the river valley between Nyuh Kuning and Singerkerta. But... the house needs some work. There are actually two houses - one with one-story and one with two-stories. We are planning the renovations now... hopefully will start soon. We won't live in the house until it's fixed up and ready (staying in nearby Peliatan for now).
Here's a slideshow of the house:
