- When I had the chance to live in Canggu, these were just a few of the things I wish somebody told me before living there. Don’t get me wrong..I LOVED Bali and my time there, but we have to keep it realistic and share the pros and cons, I’m just trying to keep it real! Maybe it is not like this in all cases, but this was just my personal experience!
Let me know your opinions in the comments!
I've been to bali for two months and did not had bali belly once, despite eating a lot in local warungs and street food. Sorry for you that you had such problems 😅
Same, I was there for 2 weeks and came back in better health. It kickstarted my wellness journey.
This isn’t a Bali review - it’s a Canggu review. The info given is not relevant to Bali generally.
We really enjoyed visiting for a week but I got the impression that the locals merely tolerate tourists. I mentioned to our jovial tour guide that I did not see any mixed couples (foreign men with a local girl). He dropped his smile and shook his head like he shuttered the thought. We found it difficult to walk a short distance to see a nearby temple due to the lack of sidewalks and constant traffic so you are spot on about a lack of infrastructure. Like any foreign country, visit first before committing to stay.
Bali is a volcano island Bali belly is not from bacterial the ground water is full of lime which is what causes the Bali belly.
The most common way to get it is brushing your teeth in the shower and using the ground water etc and ice made from ground water directly.
When U get it buy some biscuits or bread eat the whole packet get fibre back in your system.
Lime turns everything to liquid.
And 90% of you tourist bloggers premote Gangu as Bali it not it's a tourist strip designed to do nothing but take your money.
Everyone heads there hence the traffic everyone wants to stay there your paying 30% to 40% more for every thing
Pasar is Indonesia word for local market go there to buy clothes fruit n veg ECT
Big difference and paying $100 for swim suit wow they saw you coming from a mile away with sucker on your face sorry .
Venture out of Gangu away from tourist strip
Olá Eda. Qual microfone utilizas no vídeo (min. 3)? Parabéns, a qualidade é excelente!
Great videos thank you for all this information
What is your camera model?
You certainly do need your licence and also an international (IDP) one!… It is Mandatory!
Always keep copies of both and bike papers on you at all times, and where you are staying.
Keep a copy of your passport on your phone too.
Wearing helmets is also law as is proper attire.
If you don’t believe what I’ve stated:- check the driving laws for Bali/Indonesia.
Would be nice to see more then just one Area :)
Hi, I think the Bali belly that you mean is caused by drinking Bali tap water. Bali tap water is not drinkable, in fact all over Indonesia and I am sure many Asian countries too. So make sure you do not drink it and check what the most common dos and don’ts are in all over the world.
She travel at the end of the world to eat western food, god save us, bali is heaven for food, especially the indonesian one
I am really surprised at the amount of food poisening you got. I was in thailand for 10 months and I got sick once. The idea of being ill every other week is insane.
Is there E-Bikes in Bali
How about you shoping online, Indonesian marketplace it’s call “shopee and tokopedia” but since Bali is island maybe the shiping took longer, or you can filter the search just the product who produce in Bali so that will be saving time for shiping. But the downside is you need to be carefull to choose your size because in Indonesia marketplace the use Indonesian size, but there is alot of clothing using all size = means will be fit from small to medium or maybe to large. About the traffic , all the destination in the world they will have traffic depend on how much tourist were staying, but I see in Bali now there is thousand tourist that deside to stay 😂specially for digital nomad so this cause traffic alot, while the Bali land or the size of the road can’t be larger, I see the original size of the road and it’s imposible too extend it or will need to give compensation to local to move to be able to extend the road. Wh (which is maybe goverment don’t have budget for that) in this case we can’t blame Bali 100%. Continue making positif video girl
You do need a license, and thats an indonesian issued permit not a international license .Yes you can hire a bike and ride around without a helmet drunk and no license if you want .
Good luck when you have an accident without a license and no cover from your insurance ..( read the fine print on your travel insurance it you have alcohol in your system you may not be covered in any situation)....do your own research, dont rely on what you may be told on you tube
I agree with everything you said. 😢
Eda, I loved the video, but I would like to ask you to do it in Portuguese
Nothing wrong with having negative experiences and sharing them. Bali has plenty of problems. It also has plenty of shills defending her online, I can see some people writing nasty comments here towards you for your opinions. $100 USD dollar swimsuits does sound a bit extreme, although I remember looking at activewear for my (ex) girlfriend in Ubud and thinking $35 USD was too much for what it was, so I know how you feel. Similar to another commenter, I also didn't get bali belly for the 4 months I was there and I always ate cheap, so am curious about your oral habits (ha ha) to understand what was going on there (seriously). I do have a long list of issues with Bali...hotel hygiene being the biggest one, in my opinion Bali does not care enough its tourists. I'll make a video soon. Where are you these days?
❤❤❤
My partner and me have been in Bali , I agree with what you say , but do specify that this is only in Canguu .. Other parts of Bali are not the same at all .
Yes. Supermarket is very expensive...
The only way to keep Bali traffic smooth is one way street. 🙏❤️🙏
For locals the problem is only about traffic.
£12 for wine that’s good 😅
lol bali belly is from eating meat that hasnt been cooked long enough. Cant you tell the street sellers are doing this to you? Nothing to do with ice cubes.
sorry where u from ? england? no surprice peace
The worst drivers on the road are tourists who don't know how to ride or think they're king of the road. Never had Bali belly, eat local. Don't use supermarkets use local markets. Why are you shopping in H&M in Bali? Recommend you stay at home!
Don't be rude.
You all part of the problems but complaining about the problems . 😂 Funny
“Lived” in bali for 3 months
Canggu is not bali
Another influencer, god
