I just learned from I Made Berata that Ni Wayan Konderi, wife of I Ketut Madra, died early on Friday morning, May 30.

Kind, loving, gentle, and smart, with a warm and mischievous sense of humor, Wayan was the soul, spirit, wit, and house mother of the Ketut Madra Homestay.

These photos taken at the Museum Puri Lukisan opening last October captures something of the character of this remarkable woman who had friends all over the world.
