I'm going to Bali for two weeks in October, solo travelling. Please share your experiences with me, fellow anons. All I know is:
>supposedly beautiful islands
>a lot of Instagram whores
I booked it purely on a whim as I need time away from my local shithole. Thanks in advance
Don't know, but i'll also be there solo travelling in october, booked on a whim
>lots of drunk aussies
>you can try to creampie the western instagram whores
>this is what comes to mind when visiting one of the most beautiful places on earth
Is it kind of like Thailand where even though it's mostly a beautiful country, it's riddled with aussie and bong coomers who just want to drink themselves to death?
Yes. But outside of Bali there's no aussies or brits and the country is still pretty
Komodo is an amazing place to dive/snorkel
tryout surfing. well worth a day of your time even if you never stand up.
Thanks anon I was planning on spending a lot of time in and around the water there anyway, snorkeling and shit. I'm probably better off paddleboarding but I'll give it a go regardless
>If you going to travel to Indonesia why not go to visit Indonesia
Pure curiosity, anon. I did the same with Hawaii even though Honolulu is a shithole in some aspects. I only decided to go to Bali because I got an amazing deal on flights and I want to be somewhere beautiful for a while
Its an instagram spot. The best thing about it is the cocktail, the surfing d the western restaurants, which you can do elsewhere. If you going to travel to Indonesia why not go to visit Indonesia
What's the best place to be in Bali by the way?
Transformative experience. I met my soul partner Yogi Carabal there at xis yoga class. We went out for Sangria after an intense hot yoga session, dolphins sang and jumped from the water as our glasses clinked. The moon was in its second stage of Pices and xe is a Libra so of course sparks flew. Try the diving and snorkeling on Lombok as it is definitely off the beaten path.
Are there islander whores? I'm more about slum fauna.
A brave and thought provoking post with a tidbit of genuine advice at the end. I say.
Young Indonesians are so fucking annoying. I can't imagine a bunch of Westerners packed together being any better.

FYI your pic is the entrance to a golf course. Those gates aren't uncommon.
Apparently that one has long queues of instawhores lining up to take selfies at the golf course front gate.
But surely the drunkards would remain by the bars and night life, they're not going to be doing surfing and diving and nature walks and shit.
I'm the type of person that never takes selfies or puts myself in photos anyway anon, but that golf course must be pretty cool. Pic related is the type of aussie girls I'm expecting to see there
>But surely the drunkards would remain by the bars and night life, they're not going to be doing surfing and diving and nature walks and shit.
You are sorely mistaken, have you ever met an Australian?
I've met plenty in japan but I didn't see a single one outside of a city, I literally met ONE aussie lass while going up Mt Fuji and that was it. The rest are wherever the drinks are and it's the same in Thailand. I've never met one 'off the beaten path' is what I'm saying
All true except for the nice guys thing.
Sluts in this country are still strangely selective.
I'm English and the only other English girls I've known who have gone to Bali (flights naturally cost a lot more from Bong land to Asia) are incredibly up their own arses and lived off mummy and daddy's money until their mid 20s, so I imagine that may be why some white women there still act like entitled vapid cunts even though they're still the same deep down as any poor fag bitch looking for a cheap beach holiday
Thank you anon, I was genuinely beginning to believe I'd be running into drunk aussies at every nook and cranny of every island, necking the VB longnecks even while diving. What was the best part of your trip to Bali anon?
That's what they'd lead you to believe haha, couldn't let you get discouraged. I'm from the UK too, the best part is getting out to somewhere that feel like the middle of nowhere, getting that feeling you're somewhere exotic very different from the countryside you see at home.
I can't tell you you'll only see natives and traditional life though. It's still a touristy country but styay away from places like kuta and it'll be pleasant and comfy.
Jesus Christ you're getting some dumb advice, it's getting worse in this board.
You're totally right, unless you're a idiot that wants to go to places to get drink you won't see them. I spent 10 days in Bali and didn't see one retarded Australian.
If you have the least bit of intelligence, don't go to trashy regions, don't go to nightlife strips there's no reason you can't have a cultural nature filled holiday.
>tfw australian autist living in europe for years and pretending not to be australian when in SE Asia because of Bogans
It's good to be American and treated with respect wherever I go
>mfw i used to spit in the food whenever we had a gringo customer
Feel kinda bad about it now that I'm older but I can assure you get a lot less respect than you think
>larping as a Mexican McDonald's worker
You need to work on your spanglish Cleetus
expensive alcohol, expensive flights, no cooming.
PH is cheaper and better.
So no drug addicted incel coomers simping for diseased whores in Bali? Based!
I got the flights on a good deal which is part of why I booked it on a whim, I don't go on holiday to drink unless it's somewhere with a dress code, and I've coomed inside enough foreigners to satisfy my teenage/early 20s self two lifetimes over. Any tips on PH travel are welcome though, you utterly massive gay.
I've nothing against you anon, but you truly are exercising ignorance there. You're not nearly as bad as chinks or frogs though, and in some cases you're better than the disrespectful bongs who shit up all of EU
Based sighseeeler, you understand
Thanks, I'll definitely avoid Kuta, I'm thinking I might spend a bit longer in Lombok based off what little I've heard so far
Can the locals in Bali speak English? I'll of course learn basic phrases and pleasantries before I go, but if I'm going off the beaten path and exploring, am I putting myself at any risk?
Bali is great if you stay out of Kuta. Not much cooming unless you're into body positivity roasties.
Bali was the worst place I've been in Asia. Total shit hole. The beach is full of garbage. I mean FULL. The sand is covered in trillions of plastic wrappers and bottles and cans and just fucking trash. The ocean, each wave that rolls in is fucking filled with garbage. There are cocaine pushers on every fucking corner, scammers galore, the people are horrible, the tourists are horrible, the food is horrible, there's Muslim stinky shit on the floor infront of shops everywhere!
Don't go to Bali. Ever.
>There are cocaine pushers on every fucking corner
Say no more. I'm sold.
Balinese drug dealers kek, now that I need to see. Don't notice any and can't imagine it.
And what's wrong with the people? I thought the were respectful and decent.
nah, the marketing is strong from all the digital nomad fags - the place sucks, it's hot as hell and scammers on every corner.
plus expensive alcohol. thailand is tons better.
What’s the best way to get from Bali to Mt Bromo? Thinking of flying to Surabaya, but taking the ferry and train might be nice
Horrible place, it's all photoshopped instagram among brown people and muslims. You'll hear the prayers at 4:30 and every few hours.
Bunch of russians and brown scammers. The people saying otherwise never travelled.
bali isnt muslim, retard
"bali isn't muslim"
The fucking country is, retard.
how do you even operate a pc being this fucking subhumanly retarded?
it's a place for upper middle class white chicks to "find themselves"by learning bastardized east asian "spiritual practices" from other upper middle class white chicks and to larp as "digital nomad entrepreneurs" while enjoying the cheap labor of south east asians servs and gushing over how "everything's so cheap here"
The only people there with a shred of soul are the locals who try to scam you howrever they can.
I'm in this strange muslim city called jakarta, very crowded and dirty and oh I don't recommend you come. But.. all the people I meet including hotel receptionists are saying how they love bali and to go to bali.. Are they just trying to get rid of me and shove me off to the trash tourist digital nomad instagram island? Because that's what it's starting to seem like. They think I would be happier there?
Why are so many people LARPing about going to Bali? It's obvious there is only one poster who has been so far
Millions of people go there every year. Not sure why you’re so surprised by that.
Bali
If you want to avoid drunk Aussies, just stay out of Kuta
The trash on the beaches happen after heavy rains. Dry season it should be okay.
Never heard a muslim call to prayer in Bali as it's Hindu. Other cities in Indo? Sure.
Don't talk to the street drug sellers, they sell fake stuff and could entrap you with the local cops.
it’s so weird how nobody mentions surfing, Bali is easily in the top 5 surf destinations on the planet. If you want to enjoy yourself op maybe learn to surf before you go. There are an endless variety of surf breaks there and the water is warm of course.
