WATCH: A Balinese Cremation Ceremony

Get up close and personal in Indonesia – see an open ritual for the departed, happened upon by a nomad.

In Bali, Indonesia, a simple afternoon drive took an interesting turn when Hanna, winner of the 2012 Travel Writing Scholarship, came across a traditional Balinese cremation ceremony, which was being held for a local priest in the middle of a sports oval.

After assurance from her local guide, we get up close and personal to see a raw, open ritual for the departed - which turns out to be quite the celebration of life.
