Last week we flew over to Bali for a long weekend – an incredibly beautiful island! We stayed at the Sienna Villas, a couple of truly spectacular houses in Seminyak. If you are looking for a quiet and relaxing hideout, this is where you want to go. A nice garden with swimming pools, spacious rooms, comfortable beds as well as drinks, food and massages on demand – what else could you ask for?


On Friday, we hired a driver to take us around the island – we had lunch with a spectacular view of the volcano, visited the monkey sanctuary in Ubud and enjoyed the sunset at Tanah Lot, one of the Balinese sea temples.



After a wild party on Friday night – both outside and inside our swimming pool – we spent Saturday on the beach and in our villas, and ended the day with sunset cocktails at Ku De Ta and a delicious buffet dinner back at our place.

Thanks to Ellen and Turab for organizing this unforgettable escape.

[...] While recruiting and classwork are undeniably core components of the business school experience, there’s been a good deal going on the social side as well! With midterms finished at IESE, Ashwyn and classmates partied quite heartily last weekend while Karlitos took a break from b-school to spend time with family in London, Auris traveled to Bali with INSEAD classmates and Angel Angie took a trip to Cambridge to visit a friend and scope out Judge Business School. In other on-campus events, Jacek is looking forward to the Student Association-sponsored Holiday party at ESADE (and shares the poster he designed for the event), Noelle recaps the inaugural meeting of IESE’s Cigar and Whiskey Club, and classmate IESE MBA 2007 provides an illustrated summary of the past few weeks in Barcelona. He also shares the details of his planned impact as part of the Responsible Business Club’s Environmental group and, also looking toward the future, LL shares some interesting but secretive comments about the Wharton Follies writing team retreat. Also extracurricularly, Tim takes a time out from his work at McCombs and looks back to his application experience, offering some great advice for applicants. [...]
