The field note in brief
This episode combines first-person commentary with a walk along Melasti Beach prompted by debate around a running community. It is useful as a dated observation of the responsibilities of expatriate and visitor communities when creating social spaces in Bali, but it is not a representative measurement of Bali-wide conditions.
