Labor Day: A Day in the Life of a Balinese Employee
About the author
Hi! My name is Tricia Mitchell. I delight in telling stories about my slow travels through more than 65 countries. Some of my highlights have included sharing meals with locals in Armenia, Cambodia, and Tunisia; sipping sparkling wine with French cousins in Alsace; milking goats in a sleepy Bulgarian village; and training with a Japanese mine-clearance team in Laos. My husband, Shawn, and I are based in France’s Loire Valley.

Thanks, TBM. Even though we’ve been in Bali for a little over a week and a half (and I’ve seen women balancing heavy loads atop their heads in other countries) I’m still amazed by how the ladies carry the goods here! I once tried to balance an empty tray in such a manner while in India, and it clumsily fell from my head in an instant. Guess I need more practice!
