I left Denmark in 2008 and moved to Bali where I was inspired by the people, nature and mystery of the culture and religion and I needed new inspiration. Little did I know that in addition to my paintings I would become the owner of a boutique hotel that I designed and built myself together with my Indonesian business partner. The hotel (now called “Green Spirit”) became a success and after a few years I sold and built another slightly bigger hotel namely Villa Kalisat. Painting to keep up the financials while at the same time having to supervise the construction of Villa Kalisat made some long days but it became my “dream” project. Today I am no longer involved in the hotel business but very proud to say that both properties are being run very successfully.
Jeg har boet på Bali i 7 år. Hovedårsagen til at tage det store skridt at forlade Danmark, mit fædreland, var, at jeg som billedkunstner gennem 30 år ønskede at at finde mere inspiration. Eventyret på Bali gav mig så megen inspiration, at det udviklede sig til, jeg både malede og byggede hotel concept for de penge, jeg tjente ved at male. Det første hotel (i dag hedder det “Green Spirit – Ubud”) solgte jeg efter to år, og det andet hotel, som jeg byggede fra grunden i en anden landsby, blev dårligt nok bygget færdigt, før en ny køber overtog Boutique Hotel Villa Kalisat. Begge hoteller fungerer videre med stor succes. Jeg har ikke ønsket at forlade Bali helt efter være kommet tilbage til Danmark, så heldigvis var der et lille stykke land ved siden af hotellet, hvor jeg fik bygget Chalet Rabina Holidayhome, dels for at bo der selv når vi er på Bali, men også til ferieudlejning.
