His real name is I Kadek Astika, but the 31 year old prefers to be called Kadek Dewi, a feminine name.
Last Sunday, Kadek and thousands of Hindus attended Bale Paselang, a major religious festival at Sibetan’s largest temple, Pura Pasar Agung.
Because the temple lies atop a small hill, the crowd had to navigate along a muddy, narrow road blanketed with cold mist.
Having waited for years for that festival — the last one was held 32 years ago, Kadek trekked along the path with burning enthusiasm.
