For those who have left feedback about the music being either too much throughout the whole video or too loud, well noted and I will make adjustments in the future. I value the feedback of those taking the time to watch. Please let me know if you have any other suggestions! Thanks family!
I was pondering leaving during the pandemic. I was still working, but remotely. The VERY day I decided to call my employer and quite, they called me that morning and laid me off. Boom, the very next day I was gone! I had been considering moving out the country (again) so I had been saving money like crazy. Everything just worked out.
Tracy! That is totally crazy! Ok so, quick story time. When I was about to quit my job in 2022 to take a chance on myself to be a full time entrepreneur as a realtor, it got to the point right before I left that it was OBVIOUS it was time to go. To the point where I had to remind myself of what I prayed for and that was "God, I am ready for my next season". So when things kept falling apart, He reminded me that "sometimes, life is not working against you, but rather I am putting things into place BASED on what you asked and beleived me for!" So, I humbled myself and let life happen only to realize that things were shifting in such a way that would open doors and create a trail for me to experience what I am doing now. I say all of that to say, EVERYTHING works together for your good and when it doesn't make sense, trust and believe that what we may see as unfortunate, could actually be setting us up for our next! Thank you for sharing sis! I hope this video was helpful for you and if you come this way, PLEASE do not hesitate to reach out so we can do brunch one day!!! 💜💜💜💚😍🙏
I took a 2 month "sabatical" and went to Bali for 2 months last year after being severely burnt out from my 9-5 over the last few years. Gosh was it amazing! It was definitely different from other vacation destinations, but it was healing for the soul, especially Ubud and the villages around it. I made and painted batik cloth, made coconut oil with a local family, went to a silver jewelery making class with locals, went up Mount Batur to watch the sunrise atop of the mountain, visited temples, coffee plantations to hear their stories and taste their coffees and teas, visited rice terraces, met amazing people at a women's only wellness retreat called Arya Wellness where we got free breakfast, massages, and mani/pedis everyday..toured some of the neighboring islands like Gili T, Gili Maino and Nusa Lembongan.. i soaked it all in and did ALL the things, and it was awesome!! 90 days after coming back to my 9-5, I quit my job and went to Mexico for a month. I'll probably do Mexico for 3 months next year with no set return date. Good for you, girl!!!! I dont even know you, but you look like your soul is at peace. Enjoyyyyy! New subbie now ❤
Heeeeeyyyy girl heeyy!!! Thank you for watching my love and WOW!!! What an amazing journey! Isn't it SOO liberating being able to move and exist outside of the States and have so much peace! You sound like you truly captured the true Balinese experience and I absolutely LOVE that for you! Some of the things you listed are actually on my bucket list so when I partake, I hope to see you around in the comments for your feedback! Your experience sounds fulfilling which I hope to enjoy as well. Please come back so we can hang out! LOL How did you love Mexico? I have yet to go as Bali is only 2nd country I've been to outside of the states aside from Guatemala. And to think I just up and moved here without ever visiting! - Don't regret it one bit though!! 💜💚💜💜😊😊
I say go for it! I took some time off in my 30’s and moved to Europe, it was the best decision I ever made. The Emirates planes are gorgeous. I’m so glad that you started your new life off right!
Thank you fam!! I figured this is the 1st time doing something so big so I wanted to go in style and class! So glad I made the choice to do that! Thank you from watching! Where are you tuning in from??
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that and thank you for watching. What would you say you learned that was the most valuable that you had not known before? :)
Just found your video and oh my goodness - I am obsessed! Your energy is amazing. I'm also moving to Bali in March and I'm 33, a Christian woman, too! God is good! :) Here for to see your journey! Amz xx
Brrriii!! Girl, I am so proud of you!! I've been traveling back and forth overseas to live and work for 13 years and counting now. I am heading to Jordan in 2025 for work. I would love to come to Bali and meet you in person one day. I am sooo Happy for you. Thank you for sharing.
Heeeyyy sis! Now telling me you've been back and forth, you know I'm going to ask where ALL you have been! lol - and yessss please come to Bali, if you do we will have to get together for some fun! Appreciate you watching and your support. Let me know if you want to see anything specifically on here! 💙💙💙💙
@@sdmcnair wow! Thanks so much I’m glad you found this helpful. Stay tuned because I’ll be speaking next about transportation, food, and the effects being here has had in my skin, body, and sleep!
My sis Im so happy for your journey Im watching from the Caribbean and I always wanted to move to Bali to start over but I know noone there Im glad to meet you and I hope we can connect Good luck with the dating Id like to do that when I get there too Peace and blessings
I also live in south east Asia. Good going on what you are doing. You will find in your journeys that even $650 is expensive. There is a town in eastern Java, literally a 30 minute boat ride from the top of Bali called bangyuangi that you would have genuine indo lifestyle without the 2 week millionaires for next to nothing. I’m in Thailand and it’s a matter of finding somewhere that’s not inundated with tourism, otherwise go and live in Florida. Very interesting vlog. I’ve travelled to 110 countries now and watching you was exciting. You are like a puppy Labrador that is so invested in your new journey. It’s a courageous decision to drop tools and spin your life where none of your mates are. Go for it Bri. I’d be happy to talk to you about some encounters you will have on your journey. Good luck. You won’t need much. You’re confident, vibrant and look like you have plenty of direction.
Wowzer! Thank you for such amazing feedback! I am just happy that my passion has been conveyed in this video! I am soooooo interested in visiting Thailand, super excited to see what the floating markets are like and trying fresh fruit/foods!! I for sure understand what you mean about not being completely surrounded by tourist. Although I am a foreigner, I can see where it makes for complicating the cultural experience! 110 countries is OUTSTANDING! What would you say are your favorite places you have visited??
I love Cambodia a lot. Wonderful people who have endured horrific hardship with pol pot in the 70s. He killed 3 million of his own. I also love the way of life of thais. I speak the language (poorly)which helps. Off to Sri Lanka next week for a month. I’m told it’s beautiful. If I’m around in Thailand when you want to come , we are happy to show you the good the bad and the ugly.
@@suzannenorton3807 most certainly and thanks for being here! Girl, the work on myself journey is SERIOUS! Lol. But it’s sooo rewarding and eye opening. Can’t wait to share more with you! 💕💕
Im digital nomad, traveling in Asia living the cool life like this but it’s something to do for a lol while, I’m really tired of traveling being alone (yes we live in Nice places but doing it alone has not the same taste as Cherish the moments with others and partner) now i just want to go home find a comfy place to live and build a Little family. Traveling like this is cool for a year after it become boring.
I can see how it does get lonely after some time! I did have a moment of home sickness and culture shock that I'll be speaking about soon! Where all have you travelled and when do you think what you mentioned started setting in for you? When you do go back home, where will you be heading to! (Where's home)?
Wonderful video! and very informative. I am all here for it and I wish you the best on your journey in Bali🌿❤ I can definitely relate…God spoke to me and without question I dropped everything and moved to another state. It was one of the best experiences of my life. Now I’m contemplating on the next big move out of the country. So, keep the vids coming. They are truly inspiring!
Girrrll!! I tried to hard to make sure I had the most luxurious experience. In my mind, I said "if this is the one and only time you will do something THIS big, be sure to go in style" 😂😂 Thank you for watching, love!
@@Nomadically_Bri You did GREAT for yourself and that's how it should be. When I saw the movie on the beach, it tugged on my Spirit and made me wish it were me. So, I will continue to live vicariously through you so keep the videos coming!
Hey girl Hey!! Thank youuuuu! I really appreciate the support and thanks for watching. Glad to have you here! Let me know if there's anything specific you'd want to see!🙏💚
Love this! I am 32 and single and about to start my travel vlog to chronical my adventures around SEA in a few weeks! I'll be in Bali for at least a month of the 5 months travelling and I'm so excited! Love your video Bri xx
AHHHH!!! I can't wait for your channel sis! Please hit me up so I can watch and sub!! If you're on IG, lets connect! I would love to meet you when you come here!!💜
You are absolutely amazing! You are a natural! So wonderfully happy for you. Your smile is radiant! I’m looking at moving out of the country and Bali is a consideration. Thank you Bri!
@@veronica-d6c thank you so much for watching girly! And yes. It’s a calculated risk but there’s so much joy in exploring the unknown. It’s turned out to be the best decision. Please reach out when you come!!! I’d love to meet you! ❤️
Thanks for all the information. Trying to convince my husband we can retire early in SE Asia and enjoy life before we are too old. Love your attention to detail!! You are a pro in front of the camera and your video editing is amazing.
AWWWW sis, thank you!!!! I appreciate that and value your feedback! What part of SE Asia are you thinking? What do you think is the hardest part of convincing hubby??!👀👀👀
Get it Bernard! I've heard of people going out there for cost of living. How has you experience been with that? Proud of you too and thanks for watching!!😊🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@koko75723 yeessss!!! Thanks for watching and following love! Stay tuned! I’ll be dropping again soon with info on how to get around and what I did my first couple of weeks here!
Immediately subscribed!!! I am currently in the process of deciding if I am selling my car now 😅 and told myself I will decide if I will go tonight, thinking of bringing booking for the last couple of weeks and plan on heading there around the 18th. Have been praying about it as well 🙏 I have passport and proof of income too but am concerned because I am working a remote cooperate 9-5 on Massachusetts time which is 9p-6a Bali time. I am thinking of getting a travel wife box router and downloading on an app so I have 2 sources of WiFi. If you have any tips please let me know & don’t stop creating!!! Amazing content❤❤️❤️
Haleyyy!!! Girl this is amazing! So you are planning to move or just stay for long term? Giving up the car was the hardest part aside from rehoming my pup :( But although I miss driving sometimes, it's not as bad as I thought it would be. That time difference is a beast girl! LOL so you would def have to adjust to working nights basically. I have soooo many videos already in the arsenal so stay tuned and thank you so much for watching! (also, the wifi is typically pretty strong in the villas and cafes/co working spaces. I haven't found the need for an extra router BUT totally wouldn't advise against it if you want extra power)😍💜
Thank you so much! Truly appreciate that you recognize the faith it took to do this and glad I captured that in my message! Thanks for watching!! Where in the world are you viewing from?! 😊
Yes girl! I shocked myself too with how it came out. Def some adjustments to make for the future but I was happy with the results. Thanks for watching and subbing sis! Let me know if you wanna see anything specific on the channel!
Most amazing job I have ever seen on a first video. I have visited several countries (including Singapore and 3 cities in Malaysia) in hopes of finding somewhere to move. I haven't visited Italy, but for some reason, I'm being drawn there to a certain area. I'm attached to some of my stuff, not furniture exactly, but collected and inherited things that I know I can't get back if I let go.
Wheeewww sis! Those collectibles are def something to consider when moving abroad. Have you thought about what you would do with those item??! Im sure that would make for difficulty when considering relocating! Now, how was Singapore??! Girl when I say I want to go there sooooooo bad!!! Like I'm obsessed and already itching to travel somewhere else! LOL Also, where in Malaysia have you been? Where are you future travel plans taking you??! 👀👀👀🔥
This is my dream. Thank you for sharing your journey. Bali prices have definitely increased a lot since I researched it last 15 years. Please share cost of the entire move itself. If you don’t mind. I would love to know what’s a realistic cost to moving there and actually living there. Thank you sis 💕✨💫
Thank you Michele! I still can't believe I did it, but knowing me and how I follow God I guess I can't be too surprised. It's just the sudden change that got me! lol Appreciate you watching!😍🙏
You look so peaceful and happy. God is good! Please share everything! 😂 Especially financial information. Also talk about your locs, they are absolutely beautiful. Blessings!
@@RobinNatural1 hey giirrl!! Thanks for tuning in! I will definitely be covering the topics you mentioned and looking forward to sharing! Thank you for the lovely words! Having locs is a blessing in this heat! lol
@ in planning for next November. My focus now is to pay off some credit cards/saving funds and then take a sabbatical for 1 year! I can’t wait! 😊 yes, I do plan to go there!
Thank you Lorraine! I appreciate you being here. Let me know if you want to see anything specific! It you all that make the difference and I value all feedback. Where are you tuning in from and thanks again for watching sis!🙏😍🔥
Yaassss!!! Thank you so much for watching and subscribing!! Where in Bali did you go, what all did you do, and how would you rate your experience?! Would you come back??💜💚
@@Nomadically_Bri I went to Bali exactly one year ago during the Christmas and New Year's holiday. For some background, my friend and I are both from Europe. She decided to go on a Bali trip with her 17-year-old daughter, and I went along. I found the trip to be really relaxing and adventurous at the same time. However, my friend didn’t like it at all. She thought the locals were dirty, the air quality was poor, and she was disappointed with the variety of food. I think her experience was mainly because she stayed in the worst area of Bali, Kuta. The 4-star hotel she booked was literally next to a shopping mall. In my opinion, you need to be flexible and have a positive mindset to enjoy Bali. Unfortunately, she stayed only in the Kuta area and didn’t want to explore other places, even though taxi rides are very cheap. During my trip, I stayed in Seminyak, Ubud, Sidemen, Munduk, and Sanur. My favorite place was Sidemen. People say it’s what Ubud used to be, very quiet and you're surround by rice fields and the jungle. Knowing how affordable Bali can be, I’d definitely go back. If I were to do anything differently, I’d get a driver’s permit so I could ride a motorbike, especially in Sidemen, where everything is hilly and walking isn’t very practical.
Super awesome. New sub here. I visited Bali on a retreat and it was so healing. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. Looking forward to more.
Heeeyyy!! Thanks for watching and of course! Happy to share. I have so much more to release in the coming weeks! So when you were here, where did you go and what were some of the things you did! Also, how long ago was it? lol so many questions, I love travel stories 😂🔥🔥
Congratulations on your big move!✨️🎉 You look so happy. Yes, letting go can be so hard but it's so worth it! Bali is one of our favorite places, We are currently living in Thailand but look forward to going back to Bali for a while. I agree with you about Canggu. It has gotten so popular that it is now so congested. The last time we were in Bali this summer, we were in Canggu for a bit and it was sooo loud!! Its too congested. I don’t think I'll be staying in Canggu. We left and stayed in Kuta and it was 10x better. Especially since we had our baby boy. Kuta and other surrounding areas are also more family friendly. Wishing you all the best on this new journey of living abroad, especially in Bali. You are gonna LOVE it. Be sure to check out the mall by the beach near Kuta and also Finns Day Club since you are in Canggu ✨️
Heeeyyy!!! Thanks for watching sis! How are you liking Thailand?? I plan to visit sometime in 2025, just not sure when. And yes, Canguu is toooo congested and way too crowded/touristy for me. I wanted more of a local feel to which I ended up in Denpensar as the rice feild villa I had in Ubud had WAY too many bugs lol!! Are you talking about Beachwalk mall? I liked it but I LOVEEE Icon Bali Mall in Sanur. It's such a vibe and a place I will frequent for regular weekend fun lol. What are something you would recommend I do when I come to Thailand?!?!?
@@Nomadically_Bri Hey Bri! Yes I was talking about Beachwalk mall. I've nevwr been to the one in Sanur, I definitely have to check it out. That's amazing that you are planning to visit Thailand. I would definitely recommend A LOT of places LOL. But if you'll be in Bangkok, China Town and the Chatuchak weekend market is a must, also Bubble in the Forest Cafe. The Icon Siam Paragon mall is also a must and the Floating market. There are lots of night markets here too which you will absolutely LOVE!
@ yaaasss. Thanks for the recs sis!! Are you close to any of those areas?! I’d love to connect for lunch or something when I come out! I’m sooo excited for the markets. I hear y’all have better fruit than us lol 😂
Hey Bri! So happy for you. Im getting ready to do the same just a different country. Heading to Lisbon in March. So excited! I love hearing about solo women who took the leap without much planning etc. That's the beauty of it IMO. Good luck on your journey, and thx for sharing with us.
Hey there! LISBON???!!! Sooo amazing! What's leading you there? I've never been but heard how beautiful it is. That leap of faith is truly a invigorating experience. You definitely surprise yourself in things you didn't think you would do, like, or adjust to. Where are you currently and what does planning for Lisbon look like?! Thanks you watching!! 😊😍
Congratulations on your journey! I love that you know it’s God when everything flows with ease❤ Have you considered charging a fee to help future expats? I would love some insight on initiating a plan!
Hey girl hey! I thought about it but I want to get more processes in place first before offering that but great suggestion! Appreciate you watching! Where are you tuning in from and do you have a plan to move abroad?
Hello lady Bri. I just loved watching this video. I had to become a new subscriber. Side note, I wish God spoke to me the way he speaks to you. Amazing in your dreams ✨️ ❤️. Have an amazing new life. Can't wait for the next video.
Hey honeybun! Thank you so much for watching and subscribing. I'm looking forward to sharing more and hearing your thoughts! What ways do you feel God speaks to you??! Appreciate you! 💚
AHHHHHH!!!! REALLYYY!??? 👀🔥When and where are you relocating to! That is so exciting!!! Also, where are you coming from? Do you have any specific questions I can answer about the process? Happy to help!
Yesssssssss Sabrina this is so amazing...You are so obedient and Im so very happy for you and this journey...no better person and im not shocked that you did such a thing like move out of the country...youve always been fearless and just precious testimonies you have shared no better person for this experience than you...I wish you all of the many blessings and best thoughts God has for you on this journey...I know youll enjoy Bali but im sure Bali is going to enjoy you back with your beautiful spirit 💖 Cant wait to see whats next😘 I did have 1 question about airfare is it ridiculously expensive??I want to vacation there someday and just wanted to know what i should be saving to prepare myself to do that.
@@lavondajones6476 hey babbbee!! Thanks so much for watching and I’m glad you enjoyed! I’m hoping my time here is reciprocal as well and I’m sure it will be! So for the flight, I personally wanted to treat myself to a luxury experience since it was the 1st time ever going so far and the fact that I was moving here on a one way ticket. Flying with Emirates especially business class is expensive. I paid $5,800 for a one way ticket BUT you can get here on other airlines for $2,000 or less round trip! Start saving and come on out sis!! Would love to hang out with you here! ♥️♥️♥️
Thank you for sharing this experience. I am researching moving out of America and Ubud is a place that has definitely caught my eye even before watching your video. Look forward to watching more of your videos.
@@Nomadically_Bri hey, sis … right now I am taking Intuit bookkeeping and tax preparer classes so that wherever I live - I have the freedom to work remotely. I have a “remote” job in accounting BUT sometimes we are required to come in for meetings - not completely “unchained.” Definitely in 2025 is my goal. I have never had a passport but in two weeks I have my appointment to get that in line.
You have a lovely demeanor and you seem like a kind, genuine and friendly person. You should do well in Bali based on that alone since the Balinese people are just like that. Sending you good vibes and best wishes.
Oh wow! Thank you so much for those kind words. I try my best to be as polite and humble as possible. Life lessons taught me that it goes much further. Plus I just dont have energy to be any other way lol. Thanks for watching, love!

Totally AMAZING! How long will you be out there??! I would love to connect for a lunch meet up when I visit Thank you for all the fabulous suggestions sis!
@Nomadically_Bri soon..I will keep you posted. I am right now sitting in my villa making content for my new youtube/ TikTok ig channel, my daughter is helping sparingly but she is busy with her own FaithAminatv. She just left 2 days ago from Bali. I sponsored her a trip with me, she could only stay 10 days
So awesome Bri!!! Gonna enjoy watching you on this journey! Loving the content so far! Mannnnn Bali definitely looks like paradise I’m too excited lol 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Heeeyyy!! Thanks for watching! So, with memories, I have been trying to shift everything to digital format because I am trying to keep it light in how I move physically, ESPECIALLY knowing I want to live in so many diffrent areas as I embrace the nomadic lifestyle. I have a lot of pictures and screenshots that I make sure to save and back up on my phone and in email. For books, I do alot of audio books and digital formats with Kindle and online resources. What is your favorite form of reading and cherishing memories. I want to have allllll the resources possible! LOL
Yeesssss..Where did you go and where are you going when you come back?? I've been to Uluwatu for Thanksgiving and JUST dropped my Christmas Vlog of me spending time out there Check it out when you get a chance and thanks for watching sis! Where are you watching from??😍👀👀👀
Congrats on your move. 🤘🏾 I was in Bali for three weeks in November thinking about buying a plot or starting the business out there. Love to connect with you on my next visit. I’m from Los Angeles.
Hey!! Thanks for watching and I would love to connect! What part did you stay in and when do you plan on coming back. So exciting to hear about your investing goals, that's SUPER exciting!!!! 🔥
@@MostList where do you guys live now? It would be so amazing for you to come with your daughter. That would be an awesome experience to share together. 😊
Good for you. Everyone has dreams, but we are conditioned to be robots. Also, people have opinions to shatter dreams. Keep the channel, because I am retired awaiting for my husband to retire and then I will move. Listening and researching places to move. My heart for now is Greece. However, God will lead my heart. Blessings to 17:18 you.
Blessings sis! Greece seems like such a nice place to retire. I had a friend spend a few months out there and loved in! Where in Greece is your heart set on?!
Thank you so much for this lovely and inspiring and informative video. I love your energy and spirit and wish you all the best as you continue to seek and trust God for direction.
Rhondaaa!! Thank you sis! I am so happy that what I hoped would be conveyed in this video came across that way! Appreciate you watching and commenting. And most def with keep my eyes on God for direction concerning my future! Are you tuning in from the states??!!😍
@@Nomadically_BriI'm from the Philippines and staying in Bali for a couple of months then going home. Hope to meet you one day in Bali to show you around! Canggu will be super traffic but fun this holiday season. 😂. I'm going back in January 😊. And yes Bali is beautiful, full of adventures and a happy place. Also planning to get long term visa. I'm getting inspiration from this video on how to declutter and coz eventually will sell and give away my stuff haha. ❤
@@ChefBlondeeExquisiteTaste awww!! Appreciate that so much. I’m staying locked in with Him love. I know he won’t leave me now! 💪🏾 Thanks so much for watching! Great to meet youuu!! 🥰😊😊
OMG! What a beautiful journey! I love your story, and you ste a beautiful spirit.. I wanna move there. Please tell me about the weather, too hot or cold, warm comfort in incertain times of the year. Are there bugs in the apartments?
@@hughes8107 hi there! Thank you so much for watching and your kind words. I really appreciate it!! The weather is not hot versus cold, but more so wet versus dry. We are currently in rainy season, which means it rains very consistently if not every day, then a few times a week. I do speak about that in my upcoming Christmas Vlog! depending on where you live, you may fight with bugs in your villa/apartment, but of course there is mosquito spray, regular bug spray, and your typical pest control. Where I live I don’t have many bugs aside from mosquitoes. Where I used to live at there were so many ants I had to go lol
Thank you sis! I have been maintaining them myself for going on 5 years now since I started them. I DID however find a girl out here to do them for me so I could have a break lol! Thanks for tuning in, girly! 💚💫
Great introduction from the beginning of your move, the sale of your home and belongings.the flight. How did you find your second villa? What fb groups helped you the most with planning your move? Thank you for sharing your experience 🌺😍
@@Elevatedlivingat49 hi there beautiful! Thanks for watching and for the kind words! I found if you just type the area you want to move to and then the words expat, you find a lot of groups. For example, “Canggu expats”, “Ubud Expats”. For this particular villa though, i found it in “Ubud Rental Community” on Facebook! 💕💕🥰
@ thank you for your response! What would you suggest to spend more time researching ? Do you have to spend a required amount of days there before you can go to your next destination? I’m also interested in your story of the move being a god thing..how did he lead you to go here? It seems many women are feeling this calling of separation for a spiritual awakening. Does this resonate with you? hope your day is beautiful. 😊🌺
@ yessss! Definitely resonates! My biggest thing is that I just want to be obedient to what God shows me to do and where to go. I want to fulfill everything he has for me in my life. In terms of how long you can stay, when you first get to Bali, you will get a 30 day visa on arrival unless you get your visa before you come like I did. Mine is good for one year. Otherwise, you will have to leave the country after your 30 days is up unless you extend your visa. You’re not restricted to staying here for a certain period of time, but you are only permitted to stay for as long as your temporary visa is good for and then you have to leave the country. I would recommend spending time researching different areas and towns as well as the types of villas that would make you feel would be most comfortable for the lifestyle you want and considering pricing etc.
Hey mama!! Sooo happy for you & so grateful for this info! My plan is to have moved there by March at the latest. I couldn’t find you on IG, but I’d luv to talk more and prayerfully Connect once I arrive
The congestion is SO bad! LOL yes, I did end up getting a motorbike. It was quiet the experience learning to ride as opposed to driving a car in the states!! When were you here an do you plan on coming back?
Enjoy Bali. I was in Ubud seven years ago. I wish I was there now!! The only drawback for me was that there was no public transportation, only taxis. Continue enjoying your Blessings😊
@@DiannaXia144 thank you for watching! So there are still not many options outside of taxis and rideshare (Gojek/Grab). I do see the occasional buses that go by here in Denpensar though! How long were you here for?
@@Nomadically_Bri Hello Bri, sending best wishes for your stay in Indonesia. I toured the country in 2015 and totally enjoyed meeting beautiful people and being invited home for dinner with family. I did the very thing you did and left with 2 suitcases 11 years ago, and only been back twice to the States. I'm in Cambodia now and looking forward to my next adventure. Happy travels to you😁
@ oh my goodness! That is so awesome and I love that you are able to travel that way and explore! Travel and living abroad is truly a blessing. How do you love Cambodia? I haven’t had the pleasure of partaking in local family gatherings, but I’m sure the more I connect with the locals I will make those connections.
@@Nomadically_Bri I'm in Siem Reap until February or March. This is definitely a retirement Town. There's not much to do, and I'm not ready to retire yet. You will have no problems connecting with locals. Your beautiful smile and charming aura are bright and will draw people to you. Just be very mindful of all those smiling faces. Enjoy Enjoy Enjoy your Blessings.😊
Bre thank you so much for a great review! I really appreciate it because I too am mesmerized by Bali and have a desire to move there. What about the water… Are you able to drink the water as of yet or are you still drinking from water bottles
@@glorialewis369 hi there! Thank you so much for watching. Unfortunately, we are still only drinking from water bottles or filter water dispensers. We do not drink, shower, or brush our teeth with the tapwater. In terms of the shower, a lot of us have filter attachments. Have you been here before and what will be your ideal time to move over here? Where would you be coming from? 🙂🙂🥰
New Sub. I'm looking forward to seeing your journey. I'm not sure if I missed it in the video but is there a website you used to find your place in Ubud?
Hey girl heeeyy!! Thanks for watching! So, I found my place in Ubud on a Facebook group called "Ubud rental community". However, I did leave Ubud since there was too many bugs in the place I rented due to the fact that I was living in the middle of the rice field lol. I am dropping my villa tour the 1st or 2nd week of January explaining the other 2 villas I lived at, the costs, and why I left to move to this 3rd and final villa! Thanks for subbing and watching! Where are you watching from?!?! 😊
For those who have left feedback about the music being either too much throughout the whole video or too loud, well noted and I will make adjustments in the future. I value the feedback of those taking the time to watch.
Please let me know if you have any other suggestions! Thanks family!
I was pondering leaving during the pandemic. I was still working, but remotely. The VERY day I decided to call my employer and quite, they called me that morning and laid me off. Boom, the very next day I was gone! I had been considering moving out the country (again) so I had been saving money like crazy. Everything just worked out.
Tracy! That is totally crazy! Ok so, quick story time. When I was about to quit my job in 2022 to take a chance on myself to be a full time entrepreneur as a realtor, it got to the point right before I left that it was OBVIOUS it was time to go. To the point where I had to remind myself of what I prayed for and that was "God, I am ready for my next season". So when things kept falling apart, He reminded me that "sometimes, life is not working against you, but rather I am putting things into place BASED on what you asked and beleived me for!" So, I humbled myself and let life happen only to realize that things were shifting in such a way that would open doors and create a trail for me to experience what I am doing now.
I say all of that to say, EVERYTHING works together for your good and when it doesn't make sense, trust and believe that what we may see as unfortunate, could actually be setting us up for our next! Thank you for sharing sis! I hope this video was helpful for you and if you come this way, PLEASE do not hesitate to reach out so we can do brunch one day!!! 💜💜💜💚😍🙏
I took a 2 month "sabatical" and went to Bali for 2 months last year after being severely burnt out from my 9-5 over the last few years. Gosh was it amazing! It was definitely different from other vacation destinations, but it was healing for the soul, especially Ubud and the villages around it. I made and painted batik cloth, made coconut oil with a local family, went to a silver jewelery making class with locals, went up Mount Batur to watch the sunrise atop of the mountain, visited temples, coffee plantations to hear their stories and taste their coffees and teas, visited rice terraces, met amazing people at a women's only wellness retreat called Arya Wellness where we got free breakfast, massages, and mani/pedis everyday..toured some of the neighboring islands like Gili T, Gili Maino and Nusa Lembongan.. i soaked it all in and did ALL the things, and it was awesome!! 90 days after coming back to my 9-5, I quit my job and went to Mexico for a month. I'll probably do Mexico for 3 months next year with no set return date. Good for you, girl!!!! I dont even know you, but you look like your soul is at peace. Enjoyyyyy! New subbie now ❤
Heeeeeyyyy girl heeyy!!! Thank you for watching my love and WOW!!! What an amazing journey! Isn't it SOO liberating being able to move and exist outside of the States and have so much peace! You sound like you truly captured the true Balinese experience and I absolutely LOVE that for you! Some of the things you listed are actually on my bucket list so when I partake, I hope to see you around in the comments for your feedback! Your experience sounds fulfilling which I hope to enjoy as well. Please come back so we can hang out! LOL
How did you love Mexico? I have yet to go as Bali is only 2nd country I've been to outside of the states aside from Guatemala. And to think I just up and moved here without ever visiting! - Don't regret it one bit though!! 💜💚💜💜😊😊
I say go for it! I took some time off in my 30’s and moved to Europe, it was the best decision I ever made. The Emirates planes are gorgeous. I’m so glad that you started your new life off right!
Thank you fam!! I figured this is the 1st time doing something so big so I wanted to go in style and class! So glad I made the choice to do that!
Thank you from watching! Where are you tuning in from??

Thank you so much! I really appreciate that and thank you for watching. What would you say you learned that was the most valuable that you had not known before? :)
Just found your video and oh my goodness - I am obsessed! Your energy is amazing. I'm also moving to Bali in March and I'm 33, a Christian woman, too! God is good! :) Here for to see your journey! Amz xx
Brrriii!! Girl, I am so proud of you!! I've been traveling back and forth overseas to live and work for 13 years and counting now. I am heading to Jordan in 2025 for work. I would love to come to Bali and meet you in person one day. I am sooo Happy for you. Thank you for sharing.
Heeeyyy sis! Now telling me you've been back and forth, you know I'm going to ask where ALL you have been! lol - and yessss please come to Bali, if you do we will have to get together for some fun! Appreciate you watching and your support. Let me know if you want to see anything specifically on here! 💙💙💙💙
Thank you Bri. You are providing the blueprint. I was researching Bali this past weekend.
@@sdmcnair wow! Thanks so much I’m glad you found this helpful. Stay tuned because I’ll be speaking next about transportation, food, and the effects being here has had in my skin, body, and sleep!
My sis Im so happy for your journey
Im watching from the Caribbean and I always wanted to move to Bali to start over but I know noone there
Im glad to meet you and I hope we can connect
Good luck with the dating Id like to do that when I get there too
Peace and blessings
@@samanthamerchant702 hey sis! You know me now! Lol there’s a ton of us here to. We often meet for outings and fellowship. It’s a lively community!
I also live in south east Asia. Good going on what you are doing. You will find in your journeys that even $650 is expensive. There is a town in eastern Java, literally a 30 minute boat ride from the top of Bali called bangyuangi that you would have genuine indo lifestyle without the 2 week millionaires for next to nothing. I’m in Thailand and it’s a matter of finding somewhere that’s not inundated with tourism, otherwise go and live in Florida. Very interesting vlog. I’ve travelled to 110 countries now and watching you was exciting. You are like a puppy Labrador that is so invested in your new journey. It’s a courageous decision to drop tools and spin your life where none of your mates are. Go for it Bri. I’d be happy to talk to you about some encounters you will have on your journey. Good luck. You won’t need much. You’re confident, vibrant and look like you have plenty of direction.
Wowzer! Thank you for such amazing feedback! I am just happy that my passion has been conveyed in this video! I am soooooo interested in visiting Thailand, super excited to see what the floating markets are like and trying fresh fruit/foods!!
I for sure understand what you mean about not being completely surrounded by tourist. Although I am a foreigner, I can see where it makes for complicating the cultural experience! 110 countries is OUTSTANDING! What would you say are your favorite places you have visited??
I love Cambodia a lot. Wonderful people who have endured horrific hardship with pol pot in the 70s. He killed 3 million of his own. I also love the way of life of thais. I speak the language (poorly)which helps. Off to Sri Lanka next week for a month. I’m told it’s beautiful. If I’m around in Thailand when you want to come , we are happy to show you the good the bad and the ugly.
"Work on myself. That is my job." Amen to that! Great content. Thank you for taking us along on your journey!
@@suzannenorton3807 most certainly and thanks for being here! Girl, the work on myself journey is SERIOUS! Lol. But it’s sooo rewarding and eye opening. Can’t wait to share more with you! 💕💕
Im digital nomad, traveling in Asia living the cool life like this but it’s something to do for a lol while, I’m really tired of traveling being alone (yes we live in Nice places but doing it alone has not the same taste as Cherish the moments with others and partner) now i just want to go home find a comfy place to live and build a Little family. Traveling like this is cool for a year after it become boring.
I can see how it does get lonely after some time! I did have a moment of home sickness and culture shock that I'll be speaking about soon!
Where all have you travelled and when do you think what you mentioned started setting in for you? When you do go back home, where will you be heading to! (Where's home)?
Wonderful video! and very informative. I am all here for it and I wish you the best on your journey in Bali🌿❤ I can definitely relate…God spoke to me and without question I dropped everything and moved to another state. It was one of the best experiences of my life. Now I’m contemplating on the next big move out of the country. So, keep the vids coming. They are truly inspiring!
What a fantastic first video!! You killed it. Can't wait to see your journey play out✨

Look at how well you took care of YOU! From the flight to arranging your car to arranging your accommodations!

Thank you for watching, love!
@@Nomadically_Bri You did GREAT for yourself and that's how it should be. When I saw the movie on the beach, it tugged on my Spirit and made me wish it were me. So, I will continue to live vicariously through you so keep the videos coming!

@@koko75723 yeessss!!! Thanks for watching and following love! Stay tuned! I’ll be dropping again soon with info on how to get around and what I did my first couple of weeks here!
Immediately subscribed!!! I am currently in the process of deciding if I am selling my car now 😅 and told myself I will decide if I will go tonight, thinking of bringing booking for the last couple of weeks and plan on heading there around the 18th. Have been praying about it as well 🙏 I have passport and proof of income too but am concerned because I am working a remote cooperate 9-5 on Massachusetts time which is 9p-6a Bali time. I am thinking of getting a travel wife box router and downloading on an app so I have 2 sources of WiFi. If you have any tips please let me know & don’t stop creating!!! Amazing content❤❤️❤️
Haleyyy!!! Girl this is amazing! So you are planning to move or just stay for long term? Giving up the car was the hardest part aside from rehoming my pup :( But although I miss driving sometimes, it's not as bad as I thought it would be. That time difference is a beast girl! LOL so you would def have to adjust to working nights basically.
I have soooo many videos already in the arsenal so stay tuned and thank you so much for watching! (also, the wifi is typically pretty strong in the villas and cafes/co working spaces. I haven't found the need for an extra router BUT totally wouldn't advise against it if you want extra power)😍💜
Congrats on your new endeavors and much success! What an inspiring and courageous faithful move.
Thank you so much! Truly appreciate that you recognize the faith it took to do this and glad I captured that in my message!
Thanks for watching!! Where in the world are you viewing from?! 😊
First video 👀?? Amazing! New Sub and I look forward to following along with you on your journey! 💫
Yes girl! I shocked myself too with how it came out. Def some adjustments to make for the future but I was happy with the results.

business class flying is the way to go for this distance of travel! nice!
So I have learned! I don't want to fly any other way now. I have officially been spoiled lol!
Thanks for watching :)
Most amazing job I have ever seen on a first video. I have visited several countries (including Singapore and 3 cities in Malaysia) in hopes of finding somewhere to move. I haven't visited Italy, but for some reason, I'm being drawn there to a certain area. I'm attached to some of my stuff, not furniture exactly, but collected and inherited things that I know I can't get back if I let go.
Wheeewww sis! Those collectibles are def something to consider when moving abroad. Have you thought about what you would do with those item??! Im sure that would make for difficulty when considering relocating!
Now, how was Singapore??! Girl when I say I want to go there sooooooo bad!!! Like I'm obsessed and already itching to travel somewhere else! LOL Also, where in Malaysia have you been?
Where are you future travel plans taking you??! 👀👀👀🔥
To me Singapore is expensive but I love Kuala Lumpur and Malaysia in general friendly like Indonesia beautiful and inexpensive. Great place to visit.
Kudos to you for actualizing your dreams! I hope to get there one day!
Thank you so much and appreciate you for watching! Where are you tuning in from and what part of the world do you dream of visiting and/or live in??!💜
This is my dream. Thank you for sharing your journey. Bali prices have definitely increased a lot since I researched it last 15 years.
Please share cost of the entire move itself. If you don’t mind.
I would love to know what’s a realistic cost to moving there and actually living there.
Thank you sis 💕✨💫
I got you sis! Putting those video ideas on the list now!! I've heard alot of people say now much more expensive it is now!
Congratulations! I am so happy for you on your relocation to Bali!
Thank you Michele! I still can't believe I did it, but knowing me and how I follow God I guess I can't be too surprised. It's just the sudden change that got me! lol Appreciate you watching!😍🙏

Subscribed! I went to Bali a year ago and I'm interested in your journey.
Yaassss!!! Thank you so much for watching and subscribing!! Where in Bali did you go, what all did you do, and how would you rate your experience?! Would you come back??💜💚
@@Nomadically_Bri I went to Bali exactly one year ago during the Christmas and New Year's holiday. For some background, my friend and I are both from Europe. She decided to go on a Bali trip with her 17-year-old daughter, and I went along.
I found the trip to be really relaxing and adventurous at the same time. However, my friend didn’t like it at all. She thought the locals were dirty, the air quality was poor, and she was disappointed with the variety of food.
I think her experience was mainly because she stayed in the worst area of Bali, Kuta. The 4-star hotel she booked was literally next to a shopping mall.
In my opinion, you need to be flexible and have a positive mindset to enjoy Bali. Unfortunately, she stayed only in the Kuta area and didn’t want to explore other places, even though taxi rides are very cheap.
During my trip, I stayed in Seminyak, Ubud, Sidemen, Munduk, and Sanur. My favorite place was Sidemen. People say it’s what Ubud used to be, very quiet and you're surround by rice fields and the jungle.
Knowing how affordable Bali can be, I’d definitely go back. If I were to do anything differently, I’d get a driver’s permit so I could ride a motorbike, especially in Sidemen, where everything is hilly and walking isn’t very practical.
Congratulations 🍾🍾
Thank you soo sooo much friend!!!!
You look so much happier and I dont even know you😂❤ Congratulations honey🥰

Looking forward to more.

So when you were here, where did you go and what were some of the things you did! Also, how long ago was it? lol so many questions, I love travel stories 😂🔥🔥
Congratulations on your big move!✨️🎉 You look so happy. Yes, letting go can be so hard but it's so worth it! Bali is one of our favorite places, We are currently living in Thailand but look forward to going back to Bali for a while. I agree with you about Canggu. It has gotten so popular that it is now so congested. The last time we were in Bali this summer, we were in Canggu for a bit and it was sooo loud!! Its too congested. I don’t think I'll be staying in Canggu. We left and stayed in Kuta and it was 10x better. Especially since we had our baby boy. Kuta and other surrounding areas are also more family friendly. Wishing you all the best on this new journey of living abroad, especially in Bali. You are gonna LOVE it. Be sure to check out the mall by the beach near Kuta and also Finns Day Club since you are in Canggu ✨️
Heeeyyy!!! Thanks for watching sis! How are you liking Thailand?? I plan to visit sometime in 2025, just not sure when. And yes, Canguu is toooo congested and way too crowded/touristy for me. I wanted more of a local feel to which I ended up in Denpensar as the rice feild villa I had in Ubud had WAY too many bugs lol!! Are you talking about Beachwalk mall? I liked it but I LOVEEE Icon Bali Mall in Sanur. It's such a vibe and a place I will frequent for regular weekend fun lol. What are something you would recommend I do when I come to Thailand?!?!?
@@Nomadically_Bri Hey Bri! Yes I was talking about Beachwalk mall. I've nevwr been to the one in Sanur, I definitely have to check it out. That's amazing that you are planning to visit Thailand. I would definitely recommend A LOT of places LOL. But if you'll be in Bangkok, China Town and the Chatuchak weekend market is a must, also Bubble in the Forest Cafe. The Icon Siam Paragon mall is also a must and the Floating market. There are lots of night markets here too which you will absolutely LOVE!
@ yaaasss. Thanks for the recs sis!! Are you close to any of those areas?! I’d love to connect for lunch or something when I come out! I’m sooo excited for the markets. I hear y’all have better fruit than us lol 😂
Hey Bri! So happy for you. Im getting ready to do the same just a different country. Heading to Lisbon in March. So excited! I love hearing about solo women who took the leap without much planning etc. That's the beauty of it IMO. Good luck on your journey, and thx for sharing with us.
Hey there! LISBON???!!! Sooo amazing! What's leading you there? I've never been but heard how beautiful it is. That leap of faith is truly a invigorating experience. You definitely surprise yourself in things you didn't think you would do, like, or adjust to.
Where are you currently and what does planning for Lisbon look like?! Thanks you watching!! 😊😍
Congratulations on your journey! I love that you know it’s God when everything flows with ease❤ Have you considered charging a fee to help future expats? I would love some insight on initiating a plan!

@@lavondajones6476 hey babbbee!! Thanks so much for watching and I’m glad you enjoyed! I’m hoping my time here is reciprocal as well and I’m sure it will be!
So for the flight, I personally wanted to treat myself to a luxury experience since it was the 1st time ever going so far and the fact that I was moving here on a one way ticket. Flying with Emirates especially business class is expensive. I paid $5,800 for a one way ticket BUT you can get here on other airlines for $2,000 or less round trip! Start saving and come on out sis!! Would love to hang out with you here! ♥️♥️♥️
Thank you Bri, this is everything I needed. Devine confirmation🤞🏽✨️💫🫶🏽
Most certainly sis! Are you moving abroad soon??!!👀👀👀
Thank you for sharing this experience. I am researching moving out of America and Ubud is a place that has definitely caught my eye even before watching your video. Look forward to watching more of your videos.

Good for you. Everyone has dreams, but we are conditioned to be robots. Also, people have opinions to shatter dreams. Keep the channel, because I am retired awaiting for my husband to retire and then I will move. Listening and researching places to move. My heart for now is Greece. However, God will lead my heart. Blessings to 17:18 you.
Blessings sis! Greece seems like such a nice place to retire. I had a friend spend a few months out there and loved in! Where in Greece is your heart set on?!

@@Nomadically_BriI'm from the Philippines and staying in Bali for a couple of months then going home. Hope to meet you one day in Bali to show you around! Canggu will be super traffic but fun this holiday season. 😂. I'm going back in January 😊. And yes Bali is beautiful, full of adventures and a happy place. Also planning to get long term visa. I'm getting inspiration from this video on how to declutter and coz eventually will sell and give away my stuff haha. ❤
@ please let me know when you’re here!!
🥂 Flawlessly! Thank you for your share. I’m wishing the same GOD driven flow throughout your entire journey. Peace & Luv ❤️🔥
@@ChefBlondeeExquisiteTaste awww!! Appreciate that so much. I’m staying locked in with Him love. I know he won’t leave me now! 💪🏾
Thanks so much for watching! Great to meet youuu!! 🥰😊😊
OMG! What a beautiful journey! I love your story, and you ste a beautiful spirit.. I wanna move there. Please tell me about the weather, too hot or cold, warm comfort in incertain times of the year. Are there bugs in the apartments?
@@hughes8107 hi there! Thank you so much for watching and your kind words. I really appreciate it!! The weather is not hot versus cold, but more so wet versus dry. We are currently in rainy season, which means it rains very consistently if not every day, then a few times a week. I do speak about that in my upcoming Christmas Vlog! depending on where you live, you may fight with bugs in your villa/apartment, but of course there is mosquito spray, regular bug spray, and your typical pest control. Where I live I don’t have many bugs aside from mosquitoes. Where I used to live at there were so many ants I had to go lol
Your locs are beautiful. Do you maintain them yourself or have you found someone near you that can retwist and maintain them?
Thank you sis! I have been maintaining them myself for going on 5 years now since I started them. I DID however find a girl out here to do them for me so I could have a break lol!
Thanks for tuning in, girly! 💚💫
Great introduction from the beginning of your move, the sale of your home and belongings.the flight. How did you find your second villa? What fb groups helped you the most with planning your move? Thank you for sharing your experience 🌺😍
@@Elevatedlivingat49 hi there beautiful! Thanks for watching and for the kind words! I found if you just type the area you want to move to and then the words expat, you find a lot of groups. For example, “Canggu expats”, “Ubud Expats”. For this particular villa though, i found it in “Ubud Rental Community” on Facebook! 💕💕🥰
@ thank you for your response! What would you suggest to spend more time researching ? Do you have to spend a required amount of days there before you can go to your next destination? I’m also interested in your story of the move being a god thing..how did he lead you to go here? It seems many women are feeling this calling of separation for a spiritual awakening. Does this resonate with you? hope your day is beautiful. 😊🌺
@ yessss! Definitely resonates! My biggest thing is that I just want to be obedient to what God shows me to do and where to go. I want to fulfill everything he has for me in my life. In terms of how long you can stay, when you first get to Bali, you will get a 30 day visa on arrival unless you get your visa before you come like I did. Mine is good for one year. Otherwise, you will have to leave the country after your 30 days is up unless you extend your visa. You’re not restricted to staying here for a certain period of time, but you are only permitted to stay for as long as your temporary visa is good for and then you have to leave the country. I would recommend spending time researching different areas and towns as well as the types of villas that would make you feel would be most comfortable for the lifestyle you want and considering pricing etc.
Hey mama!! Sooo happy for you & so grateful for this info! My plan is to have moved there by March at the latest.
I couldn’t find you on IG, but I’d luv to talk more and prayerfully Connect once I arrive
@@kittiekaboom7317 heeeeyyy girl. Yes I would love to connect!! It’s @justbricause125. Send me a DM!! 🫶🏾🫶🏾
I loved the Ubud area best also... The conjestion is hellish!! Will you get a motorbike??
The congestion is SO bad! LOL yes, I did end up getting a motorbike. It was quiet the experience learning to ride as opposed to driving a car in the states!! When were you here an do you plan on coming back?
That is wonderful, love the dream of many!
Thank you girl! Appreciate you watching and commenting! Where are you watching from?!😊
I just discovered you and stand in awe of you single sisters who move abroad. So interesting.
Ahhh! Thank you for watching! It is surely an experience to be studied the way we so freely decide to do something as CRAZZZZYYYY as this! LOL!!!
Enjoy Bali. I was in Ubud seven years ago. I wish I was there now!! The only drawback for me was that there was no public transportation, only taxis. Continue enjoying your Blessings😊
@@DiannaXia144 thank you for watching! So there are still not many options outside of taxis and rideshare (Gojek/Grab). I do see the occasional buses that go by here in Denpensar though! How long were you here for?
@@Nomadically_Bri Hello Bri, sending best wishes for your stay in Indonesia. I toured the country in 2015 and totally enjoyed meeting beautiful people and being invited home for dinner with family. I did the very thing you did and left with 2 suitcases 11 years ago, and only been back twice to the States. I'm in Cambodia now and looking forward to my next adventure. Happy travels to you😁
@ oh my goodness! That is so awesome and I love that you are able to travel that way and explore! Travel and living abroad is truly a blessing.
How do you love Cambodia? I haven’t had the pleasure of partaking in local family gatherings, but I’m sure the more I connect with the locals I will make those connections.
@@Nomadically_Bri I'm in Siem Reap until February or March. This is definitely a retirement Town. There's not much to do, and I'm not ready to retire yet. You will have no problems connecting with locals. Your beautiful smile and charming aura are bright and will draw people to you. Just be very mindful of all those smiling faces. Enjoy Enjoy Enjoy your Blessings.😊
Bre thank you so much for a great review! I really appreciate it because I too am mesmerized by Bali and have a desire to move there. What about the water… Are you able to drink the water as of yet or are you still drinking from water bottles
@@glorialewis369 hi there! Thank you so much for watching. Unfortunately, we are still only drinking from water bottles or filter water dispensers. We do not drink, shower, or brush our teeth with the tapwater. In terms of the shower, a lot of us have filter attachments. Have you been here before and what will be your ideal time to move over here? Where would you be coming from? 🙂🙂🥰
Love it!!
@@Natureofbri thanks so much!!
New Sub. I'm looking forward to seeing your journey. I'm not sure if I missed it in the video but is there a website you used to find your place in Ubud?
Hey girl heeeyy!! Thanks for watching! So, I found my place in Ubud on a Facebook group called "Ubud rental community". However, I did leave Ubud since there was too many bugs in the place I rented due to the fact that I was living in the middle of the rice field lol. I am dropping my villa tour the 1st or 2nd week of January explaining the other 2 villas I lived at, the costs, and why I left to move to this 3rd and final villa!
Thanks for subbing and watching! Where are you watching from?!?! 😊
