For me this souvenir represents Bali . Even before I reached Bali I knew I wanted the straw Bali bag .

I went to multiple stores in Ubud’s Art Market before buying from one store . You have to make sure it is made of straw vs plastic . These come in many different colours and shapes . I was able to negotiate the price down to $15 . Make sure to negotiate before buying and buy it from one of the stores in the Ubud Market.

I also bought colourful cotton dresses for my mom, colourful pants for me , sarong, silk scarfs, cloths for my baby niece and fabrics.

I wish I had bought some items made out of bamboo but I didn’t have enough space in my suitcase. For next time ! Everything you buy you have to negotiate down fifty percent or more .
