Thank You 2011 and Welcome 2012

In English, We have quotation, time flies. Yes it is true for us. This homestay, brata 1 homestay was started in 1980s with only 1 room for our guest and it develops to have more rooms available to our customers. As same as our increase rooms, we have a new member in our lovely family. In the first photo, we took this photo on 31st of December 2011 a few hour before the year changes to be 2012. I took with my little family, me, my wife and our baby boy. I am very happy to celebrate the new year eve with our new family member, yes our 5 months baby boy. We hope in the 2012 is better than 2011 and we will have our adventures, experiences and moments to pass together, we have so much to plan, schedule and to do together in 2012, we are very enthusiasm for 2012, may God with us always.    
 For us, we had a numerous numbers of occasions, events and ceremonies to remember in 2011

wedding photo

Firstly, It was started on Monday, 6th of December 2010 among one of the biggest Hindu holiday, Galungan and Kuningan, I know it was in 2010 but as on December, everything already set to celebrate 2011, the year that we will say good bye just a few second later. On that day was my wedding ceremony. Yes, when my girlfriend said Yes afterwards I didn't wash my time to wait our Wedding Ceremony. The Wedding Ceremony was little bit quickly but everything was under control, perfect and everyone happy, I was very enthusiasm to make my new, my own and my happy family.

Secondly, My first son born on 23rd of June 2011 with his full name is Gede Putra Junartha Brata. I believe every name have a meaning and from the meaning, its has blessing for the person itself. I want my first son is being a strong, smart and wise man also be the great leader for "Brata Family". I hope God will listen and give his blessing to Him.

Thirdly was 42 days after he was born ceremony. In Balinese Hindu, this is one of the most important ceremony to welcome the baby. The ceremony was leading by my grand father from my mother, he is one of in Balinese we call pemangku. Pemangku like a little priest who has responsibility to be guard of temple in his village.
Finally, if you come to Bali as you wish to see our unique religion and rich culture heritages that stay in a homestay is the highness recommend because you can see the real life of Balinese, see the culture and religion in very close and and feel the truly Balinese Hospitality. Once again "Brata 1 Homestay say to our guests, family and the people Thank You for 2011 to all everything at that year and wait to adventures, hopes and works together to do in 2012".

pray to bless
