One of the best things i've learned since moving to Bali is how to properly tie a sarong. It sounds simple but last summer i'd tie a sarong or scarf around my waist and 20 minutes later I'd have to re-tie it. So here is how to tie a sarong so you can start the day wandering the beach, hop on a motor bike to explore and end the evening knelling in a temple without ever worrying about loosing your sarong.
step 1: with legs apart wrap the sarong around your waist
step 2: line up the sarong so one edge is to your left
step 3: pinch a corner of the sarong near your waist and tie this piece to the edge of the sarong
