Bye Bye 2020 Welcome 2021

 

 

Year 2020 will be remembered by many as special year. Many of us cannot do what we usually do. We cannot travel to our favorite places, meeting friends that we love. Our home has become our best sanctuary as it was in the past.

Since April Bali island was empty from international tourist who usually flock at our beautiful beaches, visiting temples and Balinese villages or having relaxing spa. For almost 9 months the streets around touristy area are deserted, shops are closed, empty roads and we hardly see any people. 

At Amadea we tried to embrace this situation with positive attitude. We give our best support to our associate and tried our best to keep most of them. We supported their family with food supplies and manage reduced working hours so everyone can still earn income so they can bring something to the kitchen table. Many of our associates went back to their village to do farming, open small shop to sell basic need or to work as delivery man during off work time. Twice a week our new restaurant, Asparagus, also prepare free meals for security guards who were on duty around Kayu Aya street 

It has been a tough year for everyone. This experience teaches us a lot of things to be real human that we should lower our ego, to be humble and caring for everyone. This difficult time has revealed our true value as human being.

Looking into 2021 all of us at Amadea will keep faith that the good things will come soon. We will continue to prepare for recovery once the world is ready to travel. Clearly it includes maintaining the facilities, support the live and keep good spirit of our team members and training training and training again. Keeping our operation more eco friendly and to bring happiness to those in needs with our Amadea Cares program will be on our top list.

We would like to thank you for your support thru this difficult time and we hope every one of you is safe and well.
