She conjures up the various literary & artistic figures who sought refuge & inspiration in Indonesia
- Arthur Rimbaud, Herman Melville, Joseph Conrad
- & brings ancient legends to life. She chronicles fascinating sociological observations & historical curiosities, but it is Jordis' sensual, emotional responses to her surroundings that most distinguish Bali, Java, in my Dreams from the average East-meets-West travelogue. From the heart of the lush tropical forests, Jordis guides her readers through the technicolor paradise that makes Paris seem grey in comparison. Ultimately, it is these very colours that infuse her life

Bali is unlike anywhere else. Despite the advent of international tourism, this Indonesian island remains an untarnished cultural gem set in an idyllic landscape. Spirit-haunted as is the rest of Southeast Asia, Bali boasts a unique amalgam of beliefs because Hinduism overlays a much older relationship with the physical world. Nothing is considered to be inanimate. Towering volcanoes, majestic lakes, lush forests, gushing springs, flooded paddies, golden sands & blue seas
- all these spectacular features have convinced the Balinese that their island is in itself a cosmos. Even though Bali suffered under the Japanese during World War Two, in the struggle afterwards to expel the Dutch, & through the violence which accompanied the military overthrow of President Sukarno, the resilience & kindness of its inhabitants ensure that no visitor leaves the island today unimpressed by its heritage. LAND OF TEMPLES: Besides an estimated 20, 000 temples, there are hundreds of thousands of shrines for the good reason that hardly anywhere is said to lack divine significance.FESTIVALS & DRAMA: So widespread are places of worship that every village & town possesses its own religious festival, an important part of which is dance-drama. Most popular is the story of the defeat of the chief witch Rangda by the good lion Barong, but the audience knows that she will be back again. ART & HANDICRAFTS: Because the Balinese believe that making beautiful objects is pleasing to the gods, artists & craftsmen are highly esteemed. On display along roadsides are their astounding works, which range from monumental sculpture to bright textiles.
