Getting closer

Here is another shot of the property. This one was taken in the morning and just as the sun was rising. I hope you’ll agree that the place looks beautiful.
We are very excited about getting there, it’s not long now.

Not long now before our return

It won’t be long now until we are back. We are furiously working on the plans for the new house and we’ll be discussing this again with our friends when we get there.
I hope you like the new look of the site, we have migrated from Blogger to Wordpress. Blogger was difficult to upload and [...]

We’re heading back

We are very excited. Finally we have organised a trip back to Lombok. We will be there shortly so we can talk through all of our plans with our friends and begin to get the project going.
We are so pleased to be heading back and look forward to us moving forward on this post haste. [...]

Missing paradise

It’s almost a year since we were in Lombok. We are missing it. Not to worry, we will be back there soon and I am working on getting the building plans over there as we speak.
In the meantime, here is another image of the area.

This is looking from the front of the lad down into [...]

It’s been a long time

We are still here. It’s just been an extremely busy year! When we have a moment, we cast our minds back to our wonderful friends and our lovely block of land in Senaru.
There has been so much happening back here in Australia that we haven’t had time to initiate our plans for the building. This [...]

Another view

This is the view of the property from the road. You can just glimpse the ocean at the top left, it’s just a little darker shade of blue than the sky. Suffice to say, we haven’t had a lot of time to post in the last few weeks. As you can see, it’s been nearly [...]

A house will ‘grow’ here one day

Oh dear, it’s Sunday night and I haven’t had a chance to work on the design of the house this weekend. Too much going on in Sydney! I’ll try and finish during the week. In the meantime, this is a shot of where the first bungalow will be built. This is the middle terrace, just [...]

Designing a layout

A very quick sketch is made on a piece of old cardboard we found. A basic layout of the buildings and some landscaping. Andy is working on the design of some simple bungalows at the moment. These are running late, they were meant to be ready before Christmas, but hopefully they can be sent [...]

The Terraces

The site has three terraces from northern to southern property line, and two from the west to the east (from the road to the cliff). BB and Aji are planning what to do with the bonus terrace we have that isn’t officially included on the title, but is ours to use nonetheless. We will construct [...]

The Road to Senaru

Welcome to our little piece of paradise. One of our first tasks is to work out what to call this place. We haven’t quite come up with the best name yet but more on that later. So what is ‘this place’?
In 2003 BB and Andy bought a little parcel of land 600m up Mount Rinjani, [...]
