WHAT YOU LOOKIN' AT?! I often find myself silently screaming this question in my mind here in Bali, because PEOPLE STARE. A LOT. Now, of course, this is not my first traveling rodeo in terms of living abroad, and I'm pretty used to people staring when I travel to places where there are not many Black people. HOWEVA, that doesn't mean that sometimes it's not still shocking or annoying. And well, I NEED TO VENT. I find that when people stare, if I smile, they smile back, glance away, and the staring stops. It's as if my smile has suddenly made them comfortable with, or accepting of, my presence - my difference - and it is now ok to proceed...
