The series began in 2021, during the pandemic, as a way to share and highlight the distinct identity of the island through in-depth stories. The publication centres on the belief that ‘the more one understands Bali, the more one truly values and appreciates what they see around them’. This is with the ultimate hope that readers will foster a deeper passion to preserve the culture, or indeed spark a curiosity to immerse themselves further into what Bali alone has to offer the world.
There are now three volumes of TIMELESS Bali available, each one sharing a unique variety of articles that share the wealth and beauty of the island. In every volume, you will read travel stories with meaning, local myths and legends, and in-depth explanations of complex cultural phenomenons. It is ‘real Bali’ printed onto the page, and is a great companion to any Bali lover, a great display for Bali homes, villas and businesses.
About TIMELESS Bali
Every page is home to a story that must be read, photographs that inspire, and thus a magazine to be kept and cherished for years to come. The content matches this mission, with articles that will last forever: stories on Bali’s past, present and future; stories on the seen and unseen; stories on places and people.
“Why have we made this publication? Honestly, it’s a labour of love,” shares Publisher Alistair Speirs. “We want to portray the eternal aspects of Bali in a way that the world will appreciate, and as people understand these aspects and grow to love them they will start to respect them and hopefully strive to protect and preserve them, and as they preserve them they may want to teach others about them and encourage them to do the same.”
