| I just wanted to warn homestay/hotels owners. We had couple of young backpackers staying in our homestay in Gili Trawangan for three nights. Today early morning they left without paying their stay. They maybe from England (they said) or New Zealand (we found credit card in the room ). They are woman and man around 20 years old, both of them blond and wearing blond long dreads in their hair. Yesterday they told us they were planning to continue their trip to Kuta Lombok (maybe lie). We understand that it is a very little chance to find them now, but somethimes miracles happen | |

| Well I heard a miracle happened The power of the Internet! Glad you put the post up. Years ago I managed hotels and I always wished for a database of "runners" and known scammers. The chain I worked for used to send alerts around - now we have Internet I wonder if something like that exists. | |

| Yes a miracle happened - what a small place this is. The unpaid funds will be with Welcome Inn tomorrow. I gave them to a guest who left for Gili T today. She is staying one night at her DIve centre and then another few nights at Welcome Inn. Glad to be of help | |
