I got an evoa. I think around £25 to extend. Can't remember idr amount.

Great - see you there!

I'm back in Bali after 2 years away soon. I still have the same phone I bought there last time, so I get to avoid that annoying foreign-phone SIM activation fee. The plan is to upgrade to the Samsung S25 Ultra in Indonesia when it comes out in a few weeks, so I continue to have an Indonesian phone as an extra reason to lure me back 😆

Does anyone know the best way to get from airport to Ubud these days? I got one quote from my Airbnb for 500k IDR one way. Seems high?

andrej 1mo

Check Airport taxis on Booking.com. A few friends used it last year and the price was quite good

maplejohn 1mo

Just take a Grab

iragilla 1mo

Thanks!

iragilla 1mo

Thanks!

Hi wondering what’s the nomad scene/community like in Lembongan?

The usual canggu feels too crowded hence looking for something nice & quiet still with the hope of meeting people!

archer 1mo

Lembongan is great if you want less crowds. It’s a much simpler version of bali. You won’t find as many nomads passing through but you will find long term residents either there on holiday from bali or actually living there. Not nearly as many places to go, but you’ll find people. The surf is great, the scooter rentals are sus but they’ll get you around, overall vibe is great. Highly recommend if you’re looking to get away from the guuu

Nice, sounds lovely! Thinking of heading there soon. Hope it’s not tricky to find places to work from

elpol 1mo

Trying to extend my visa that expires on 26/01 and getting the "14 days before error". Am I too late?

archer 1mo

Never heard of that before. A visa agent might be able to help you

jellis 1mo

Hey guys I’m new here and have been having a read of the chat looking for information regarding to visas. I have answered pretty much all of my questions from your helpful replies however I’m curious how to stay in Indonesia for a longer period (6months to a year) without having a business reason to be there. Could I apply for a VOA then apply for an extension which would be 60 days total, then leave and renter and repeat the process? does anyone have any experience doing this and if so was there a point that you were refused entry?

kevinmcalear 1mo

Hello everyone! I'll be in Bali for at least a month!

I'm looking for reccomendations for places to stay (probably in Canggu) and the best coworking spaces in Canggu. I was looking at B Work (and a few others) but would love to learn from people already living and working in the area!

I'm open to coliving or just getting my own place and anything inbetween.

Thank you! 🙏

kimward 1mo

I think there is a nomad visa now if you work for an offshore company and earn over a threshold

chrisrdodd 1mo

Bwork is the best coworking space by far. Been a member for most of the last 10 months

kevinmcalear 1mo

Thank you! 🙏

andrebutturi 1mo

For the ones coming to the meetup tonight, the table is booked under my name, Andre. See you there later!

elpol 1mo

I’m coming but I’ll be a bit late, don’t wait for me to start 🙏

elpol 1mo

Great meet up! Thanks for organising Andre 🙏 Please share the pics

villya 1mo

It was nice meeting you guys at tonight's meetup! Thank you Andre for organising! 👍🏻

andrebutturi 1mo

Thanks Andre!

romancores 1mo

Hey everyone! I just came to Bali and plan to be here 1 month. What cool activities and meetups are planned Jan/feb?

pranavmalvawala 1mo

Hey! Same. Landed yesterday. I’ll be up for meetup.

Any coliving spaces that I can try?

miltongeo 1mo

you get to meet people based on your interests (over breakfast 😅) very popular in europe

miltongeo 1mo

tribal and outpost are the most popular ones

aditlal 1mo

Visiting jakarta soon ( seen mostly all of Indonesia before)
But this time with my partner
What option of 10000 islands should I visit
Any recommendations
(From Jakarta)

openthesource 1mo

Hey guys, what are your thoughts on PUCO as a coliving space in Canggu?

reffan 30d

hyoiuoeucgdk picking up here :)

Yeah I stayed at Outpost Penestanan last year, enjoyed that very much. The center was crowded indeed but hoping that area is still nice.

Headed to Bali in a month, in Thailand now actually

jesseclark 30d

Nice. I'm planning on heading to Thailand at the end of Feb.

reffan 30d

Haha nice, the switcheroo.

I think both places are great, but the traffic in Bali is on another level 🫠

jesseclark 30d

Yeah, I'm hoping that I can find some more relaxed places in Thailand. Also plan on doing some diving.

jesseclark 30d

Let me know if you want to compare notes.

elpol 28d

I’m in the same situation now. Which number did you contact?

arthuroxoz 27d

Currently booking my 3 months trip in Bali. If you have good spot to land in Canggu (Hostel, villa) with Good wifi 😉 happy to hear

kevinliba 27d

There are too many to list here 😂

timtim23 26d

Is there any lost and found channel/group/office or idea where to search for lost passport (Except for the obvious last locations)? Was at least in Ubud and sanur. Edit:
- https://www.facebook.com/groups/3001568053401941

somavakien 26d

Which is the best spot for intermediate surfing in April, where you can reach easy without scooter and has nice bungalows walking or grab distance? As we are traveling with baby I do not wanna hire a scooter.

elpol 26d

Kuta, Seminyak, but no bungalows

xedwardx 25d

Hello, I just came to Bali, is there any SEO community?

roelof 24d

did you manage to find any other lost and found pages?

onur 22d

What is the current rental price for a scooter each day? I got an offer 90k IDR/day. Don’t know if this is a nice deal

ania 22d

It’s hard to tell as it depends on the scooter. Is it scoppy (the cheapest), vario or nmax? How old is it? And so on…

elpol 21d

Nmax monthly 1.4jt, Scoopy/Vario 600k monthly. Daily no idea.

elpol 21d

These are prices after bargaining, I know fools paying 4jt/month for an Nmax

markknd 21d

Yo guys, flying to Bali on 10th Feb. anybody wanna meet?

markknd 20d

I'm gathering a meetup on 11-12th somewhere in Canggu. Already have 10 people coming, so shot me a DM

matttimm 20d

Raja Ampat and Toraja were one of the best places I’ve visited. Love Manado too.

polyglot 20d

This is one of those times I'm relieved we just had a big downpour of rain to wash away all the pollutants in the air. I was back to using an N95 outside and now I can put it aside again

reffan 20d

Guess I'll be sticking to Ubud once I get over there

elpol 20d

Nope, it was some crop burning, back to normal now

elpol 20d

I'll have to get one of those for BKK 😅

polyglot 20d

My first week here in Bali I had an awful cough and it was all because of just a few days in Bangkok first. Always wear an N95 anywhere the Air visual map goes beyond yellow

elpol 20d

Yep I totally remember you telling us about this. Any N95 will do? What's a good one?

polyglot 20d

I'm going to buy a set on shopee delivered, since I'll be going to Java later and will definitely need them in cities, especially Jakarta.

The ones in pharmacies here don't have the secure fit to make them effective, unless someone has been to a particular pharmacy they can recommend?

pramyogo 19d

The new rules
You only can extend evisa when your stay permit will end

14 days before end of stay permit

pramyogo 19d

Just know online community
Also in Indonesia language

pramyogo 19d

I just try Pari island in 1000 island of jakarta
Not try others

Pari island is good, but i think many other island more good

pramyogo 19d

Also make sure now is rainy season in Indonesia include jakarta

Make sure the season not make worse your holiday

aditlal 19d

Thank you

somavakien 19d

Hey guys when i take the visa on arrival for 30 days and have a return ticket in the next 60 days, cause i know i will extend will they accept or should i take an onward ticket?

pramyogo 19d

Usually extend of evisa on arrival is auto accept by immigration, no need verificaton

And make sure do it online on official website (dont click scam web) with registered account + email

https://evisa.imigrasi.go.id

somavakien 18d

surf

somavakien 18d

anywhere else? Kuta and Semi seems really crowded

somavakien 18d

Is it easy to get to Lembongan ? Or should i book something in advance in terms of ferry?

somavakien 18d

And is there grab or tuktuks in Lembongan?

lorettasees 18d

It's pretty easy, just turn up at any of the ferry company offices at the Sanur harbour. There's lots of them and each do about 4 trips a day. For peace of mind you can book online in advance.

lorettasees 18d

Nope

somavakien 18d

How about fruit markets?

romancores 18d

what time usually do they approving the extention? I've applied and paid extention on friday - it's still in Wainting Verification status

elpol 18d

Takes a while. Send them an email. They approved mine a day before current one expired. If you have the payment receipt I would not worry.

kevincburke3 15d

Hello! I'm from the US. I have been researching a trip to Bali. Does anyone know how long I can stay without a visa? I have seen 30 days and 60 days with an extension, but I'm not sure how that works. Thanks!

jesseclark 14d

All of Bali is crowded. It's a matter of degree.

jesseclark 14d

No grab or gojek. Local "taxis" only.

brendanb 12d

Hey can I get your invite please?

elpol 11d

Hey gang, I'm organizing a meetup on 20/02: https://nomads.com/meetups#5b9eeaf74b6ae30aff076edcaa122746

Does it worth it issuing a C1 Tourist Visa (60days) instead of a visa on arrival?
I mean, looks like a more solid option and it seems to not ask for a outbound ticket from Indonesia...

sizzle 8d

If this hasn’t already happened count me in 🙂

sizzle 8d

Just be sure to apply well in advance; mine arrived after I arrived

sizzle 8d

I’ve been working from Tribal - any good suggestions to other places I should check out this week? ☺️

rodsch 8d

it does not state that an outbound ticket is needed, but I can see the case for imigration officers asking for it anyways.
I thought better and decided to have the B1 visa instead.

sizzle 8d

They didn’t ask for mine but you can always make a fake one (tons or website for that or Canva)

rodsch 8d

Sure. But better safe than sorry.
U issue one from onwardticket.com

sizzle 8d

Whatever makes you comfortable 🙂 I generally never get any questions anywhere but I may have some passport privilege.

reffan 8d

I really enjoyed Outpost in Ubud (Penestanan), they had some cool meetups and workshops going on

reffan 8d

Got held up for an hour last time, asking lottts of questions. Guess everybody's mileage may vary haha

edl241 6d

Anyone going to this tonight https://megatix.com.au/events/dennis-cruz?

joeljoel 2d

Hey lit Bali nomads! I’m looking to invite e-commerce brand owners for a fun podcast. If you run a 7-fig (or close) brand, please reach out. For context, I run a 7-fig creator/influencer agency. Content will be shared to a big group of audience in Asia (Singapore mainly).

Looking to do it over the next 1-3 days
