There’s much to smile about in this edition of Karma Chronicles. The fact is probably best illustrated by Karma Kandara GM Jorge Monje, who reveals a secret passion and a heart-warming impression. Then there’s the Belvedere - the latest development at Karma Kandara - accommodation, views, services and prices are bound to provoke some huge grins among investors and second homebuyers. And anyone who felt a twinge of frustration as the lights were extinguished for an hour on earth day had only to head to the beach at Nammos Beach club to discover a candlelight surprise that could not fail to lift up those mouth corners, as reported on CNN. The beatific beats of Balearic music legend John Sa Trinxa had everyone beaming, as no doubt will the music of Aussie DJ, producer and all round overachiever Pee Wee Ferris this month. Azizskandar Awang, executive chef at Padma, Karma Samui, gives some insights into what makes the renowned destination restaurant tick - probably more mouth watering that part. Check out our special offers section for some ideas that should have you beaming. And we’re smiling about all the excellent media coverage all of our resorts have been receiving from around the world. Life’s a beach, so grin and bare it!

For many years now, Monje, who moved to Bali permanently in 2006 has been capturing the world through a lens. And to impressive effect. Here, in his own words, he shares some thoughts about his new home and a particular experience, which took place soon after his arrival on the island...
