(Uluwatu/bukit area) Hello, does anyone know if the golf course red boom gate shortcut for motorbikes is still open? It's at the sterling hotel.

bumping this, would love a reference before i go with airbnb 🙂

check out fb: marketplace and tons of groups, try to search smth like ‘bali villa’ or ‘canggu villa’

Hey Software Engineer here planning to go to Thailand or Indonesia in May to work remotely for a month. I would be going solo and my plan would be to meet new people and work from there. I have been told that Bali is not what it used to be (I have never been there) and I was wondering what you would do in my situation.

- Where to go
- Accommodation tips
- Where to meet other digital nomads (I believe coworkings)
- My plan would be to work CEST timezone which is not great. Is there people there doing kind of the same thing? Or normally people remote work on the Bali timezone?

Thank you in advance, any help is welcome!

PS: I love doing al kinds of sports and I love adventures so I would love to be somewhere where I can do this in my free time!

Coworking spaces are your best bet for meeting people

not sure if anyone responded but it’s closed still

Oh thanks. Such a shame. It was great.

yea there’s a lot going on in the background so it may open in the next few weeks but no transparency so no promises

Hey, I’m new here. I’ve got some questions about where to settle, but this hardly seems the right place to ask, is there a forum somewhere on this platform to get maximum replies and opinions?

Been running some numbers on USD → IDR lately: depending on which app or bank you pick, the gap between top and bottom ranked provider is about IDR 1.3M on a $1,000 send. Roughly $77 that either lands in your rent budget or doesn't.

Curious what setup folks here use for getting USD / GBP / EUR / AUD into IDR? Wise plus local bank, Revolut, stablecoin, combo?

Happy to DM anyone deep in the weeds on it.

Wise + Local bank works pretty well

try jogja in java island. pretty cheap, the vibe is good. transport is easy using grab / gojek. coworking spaces are abundant. airbnb for monthly stay should be good and budget friendly

Hey, planning to go as a digital nomad to Bali mid-may. How is it? Would you say its a nice time to go or better to go further down the line

Why would it be a bad time to go? The only bad time you could say is rainy season which already ended

Thanks for the response, yeah I meant in terms of weather, vibes, and things to do.

Thank you so much for the info, I was wondering when you guys find it best to go and why (from experience). Just to see different points of view

hi

Hi all. Will be in Canggu for a month. Can anybody recommend where to rent a scooter?

Hey everyone,

My wife and I are looking for a place to stay for 3–4 months—anywhere is fine, as long as it’s nice and has a workspace.

Do you know of any good places for this?

Hey, any recommendations of accommodations in Canggu to meet people? Thanks!

Hey all, so I damaged the band of my whoop, what would be the best place to find alternative? I'm around Ubud. The only option i found so far is tokopedia.

I’m so late to the party but easy bike rental was so easy and cost effective

Hey team, is this channel still active. Anyone around?

Channel is probably yes. But the place… 😁

Hi All,
I'm planning to visit Bali for a month around August. Is there a starters guide somewhere, or some resource that you found super useful in making your decisions? (where to stay, how to book, what to do online vs what to do in place, how to stay safe etc.)

Hey visiting on Friday for 10 days. What are must things to know ?

Right now primarily thinking about what sim to get (if possible before hand - eSIM) and what hostel/place to stay at.

I have 2 days individually and then a joining a group for the rest of the stay.

been using airalo everywhere I go. works so far

airalo is good but u can just get an esim at a telkomsel- ur gonna need to bring ur passport to register ur imei but its solid. depends on how long ur staying

10-11 days.

Airalo is good in all the islands too?

What’re some good cowork spaces in Ubud?

Yep! haha Hubud used to be so good but it's closed now

Is Bali still recommened to go for first timer?

Lots of people who dislike it, lots of people who love it. I fall into the former category. Go and check out yourself, see various parts of the island and then come to your own conclusions…

Just stay out of canngu

Hey! I’m planning a 1 month stay in seseh / pererenan (open to recommendations) with a friend. Hard work, gym and fun. Where we can find a vila? Any website? Or just airbnb?

Whats the best coworking space in ubud rn?

Outpost

Hi, any recommendations of accommodations in Uluwatu to meet people?
