The island of Bali in Indonesia is one of the world’s best tourism destinations. I visit Bali regularly, and was always interested to know more about the local beliefs there. So I interviewed Putu Sandra Devindriati Kusuma, whose name means Moon Flower Goddess, to share a bit about her life and philosophies as a Balinese woman. Listen to this episode with an open mind and you will enjoy the beauty of Bali through her voice.
Do you have a story to share with me? Contact me and maybe you will be featured in the next episode! My podcast can also be found on Spotify, Apple podcasts, and other podcasting platforms.

Well done, Miss Moon Flower and Miss Airin!
I do love the fluidity of cultural traditions in Indonesia–largely generated by people falling in love! — and the acceptance of these diversities here.
English doesnt have the precise language to capture the variety of family that for instance Moon Flower enjoys: Big Family, little family; you used “tribe” as well!
Fascinating!
Very glad you enjoyed the episode Frances! I enjoyed learning more about Balinese philosophies and culture from her also.
