You made no mention of using local drivers for long trips. They will spend the day with you and look after you our driver has become a good friend and travels with us when we tour around Bali.

my advice as an Indonesian: regarding dengue fever mosquitoes come out and suck blood only during the day not at night, so use mosquito cream regularly during the day

[menroytheresia]

I have been around the world and Bali is still number one, nice cuisine nice people and nice culture. Welcome to Bali 😍

[komingtriindahsari]

Balinese living in Sydney over here and I agree with everything mentioned in this video.. 😊 Miss my hometown so much!

[jeffball]

Great advice guys. My wife and I lived in Bali for 9 years and your advice is spot ton :)

I'm leaving in 21 days to volunteer at a sea turtle conservation and I've watched a LOT of videos and this one is informational. Thank you

[naturepixiee]

thank you SO much! i haven't watched yet, but i know it's going to be helpful ❤ soon movingg!!

You forgot to mention one important thing:
"VALID INTERNATIONAL DRIVING LICENSE".

If you plan to rent a car, motorbike or scouter. And you don't want to have any trouble with local traffic police. You're welcome. ♥️

[muntenated]

One really important one came to mind while I watched this. Scooters are a cheap and tempting way to get around but make sure you're fully licenced, wear a helmet and check your insurance. Accidents happen and you don't want to be stuck in Bali on life support.

This is why we receive ex-Bali residents here on Koh Samui weekly. Because Koh Samui is has become a post-pandemic paradise 🥰😎

a little tip regarding MSG in Indonesian foods (mainly street foods). In some food like bakso, mie, or soup, they add the MSG just before they serve it to you. So you can ask them to not add MSG when you order.

Respect the local culture and people, mingle and be one, anywhere in the world, then life is easy and beautiful :) also a world traveler since child here.
edit: use pure lemongrass essential oil to repel mosquitoes, it also nourishes your skin :)

Get a kamus, English Indonesian dictionary, just a pocket one and there is no worry about flat batteries. Used it in the 1990s and picked up a useful amount of bahasa Indonesia pretty easily.

[stevenduncan]

yup i saw yup i saw gojek everywhere👍 and they are smart cash people use cash. I love still using cash when out. And all these businesses ( in Australia ) missing big tips because of card use👎 great video guys! i don’t know i just feel good paying with cash

[sukandigunawan]

yes indeed if we live on the coast of course the water will make our hair or skin a bit sticky, it could also be due to the sea air, but if we live in the hills or mountains the water is very fresh and nice

[michaelrudd]

Green hair from chlorine, easy fix, tomato ketchup, this is true especially if your fair haired, and your hair is long, the longer your hair is, the more tomato ketchup you'll need to use, example shoulder length best use the whole bottle once your hair is completely covered, just wrap a towel over your GREEN hair for a couple of hours and hey presto, wash it off and it gets rid of 90%, if your a bit consous, repeat as nessasary, just make sure someone doesn't use your hair to dip their chips, but it does really work, , ,

You know what, as a local Indonesian when I visit Bali from Jakarta, the feeling is not I’m in Indonesia anymore, but I feel like I am in Australia. Its cool to have the Australia feeling just 2 hrs from Jakarta. More foreigners the merrier 😁🥂

[craiglanigan]

Some golden tips for even regular Bali travellers in this one. I can't wait to get back to Bali in a little under 3 days now :)

[arthurwatts]

My introduction to Indonesia was the chaos known as Jakarta, but Kuta remains the only place in Asia where I've been physically accosted by a shop owner.Even pre-pandemic, there was a level of desperation that stunned me. I had some persistent beggars in Cambodia but no-one laid a hand on me.
