I travelled solo for the first time last year and actually found love in Bali, a local man. My purpose with the trip was definitely not to find love but I did.. on Valentine's Day
Hi Chidi I met my wife in Bali while I was traveling there to surf. We have been married for 11 years now! Bali is beautiful the people are so friendly. Your videos are very informative and interesting. You really radiate light and love, more of us should have your attitude!
The outdoor kitchens are quite common in Asian households mainly because the cooking involves alot of spices and cooking outdoors eliminates any smells lingering indoors which makes sense. I am very surprised about the hair braiding since the quickest way u can tell Australian girls have just come back from Bali is their hair is braided lol. I am sure there are hair salons that do this in Bali. I am glad you mentioned the local people. Far too many expat vloggers talk about the cafes, spas, activities in Bali, very few mention the rich Balinese culture and frankly I don’t understand why people move to another country if they are disconnected from the local community and culture; it makes no sense. Finally you mentioned all the good looking guys are visiting. Actually there are alot of good looking local guys and of course it depends on personal preference but many western people have found love with locals and have been very happy. And like you, some meet their soul mates who are travelling there much like in Eat Pray Love. Love ur Gecko 🦎 impression lol.
Perhaps next time you might want to get your hair done in Jakarta, the capital city. There are heaps of international standard salons and beauty shops that you should def check out, so you no longer need to fly so far away to malaysia to get your hair done :)
I traveled alone to Italy before the pandemic, best thing I’ve ever done in my life. I look forward to traveling alone in the future. Even if I’m with someone at the time.
@@dainawilson707 Did you speak Italian? Did you stay in a big city like Milan or Rome or did you venture outside the city? Glad you had a great time. Congrats!
@@jenniferj6580 girl I was all over Italy. Even went to the Amalfi Coast. Most places speak English so the language barrier wasn’t hard. I took the train by myself, navigated all types of cities. Booked all my tours in advance. It was really a great experience. Don’t be afraid girl, you can do it. I’ve went to Europe with friends and it was great as well, but I thoroughly enjoyed being brave and doing it on my own as well.
@@dainawilson707 Wow, I love hearing stories about black women traveling alone. My daughter has traveled quite a bit outside the US, me just stateside. Nice to know people spoke English with you though. This pandemic is just horrible, the rules seem to shift daily. You keep on rolling, traveling and having fun Diana. Thanks for sharing! P.S. Did you stay in hostels, Airbnbs or hotels? Have you ever stayed at a hostel?
As a Black American Male from Los Angeles who currently lives in Jakarta, I had a problem with some of the Australian's in Bali. Some of them are rude and they think they own the place. My Wife is Indonesian so we do get a lot of looks as well. We plan to move back to Bali in 2023 but, I really need to find a good place to live. We do have Geckos here in Jakarta and I live on the 21st floor of a High Rise. 😎
I’ve traveled to Bali 3 times since 2010. I absolutely love it but loved it more before it became overrun by influencers. Uluwatu is one of my favorite areas on the island.
I'm actually on my first solo trip to bali and it is amazing so far. The people are super nice and inviting. however, I'm currently scared sleepless from a Gecko invasion in my room. 😂 Now I know what that noise is outside my room. I must say all of my anxiety of traveling solo has subsided. If you want to go just do it. put your big girl pants on and go, you won't regret it.
I love your energy and spirit!!! I’ve never traveled outside the U.S alone, but I did relocate to another state alone 1yr ago, I am now considering Bali for my first time alone,thank you so much for sharing your videos, I also would love to use your travel agency so I will look into that❤️☮️
I just wanted to say thank you for sharing all of your videos with everyone. I will actually be in Bali the end of October. I am a little older and just started my own journey. But I’m starting. So thank you again so much for all of your information and encouragement. I would love to speak with you. I have a few questions.
Hi Chidi, I have a question regarding pets. I see you got your sweet little dog Ginger whilst over there, and I was just wondering what arrangements you have for dog sitting whilst you're away travelling? - We're from the UK and have 2 cats but are considering buying/building there but we need real solutions for cat sitting as we also wish to travel around and even come back to the UK for a couple of months of the year but we don't want to put them into a cattery. If you could let me know a few good and reliable local businesses that offer a cat sitting service that would be much appreciated! :) Thank you!
I would also add the poor and expensive healthcare (emergency first aid and hospital services) and traffic hazards for newcomers (car/motorbike insurances are basically inexistent).
I have been in long distance with my Afghanistan King for the past 1 year and half and I must say it’s NOT an easy thing to do. In January of this year went to Dubai to meet him for the first time it was beautiful. Now I’m in the process of filing the fiancé visa and I can’t wait so in the future we can travel to Bali together even build our villa there too.🥰. I say real love has no distance.🥂
@Soulful Adventures She's right, my country don't accept immigrants. Bali is meant to be a *tourist* destinations. not for foreigners to migrate. Those migrants are here Not to pouring money, but to Earn money. you're the ones who should humble yourself and be grateful that we let you in. Being able for you to be in my country is a privilege, not human rights.
THANK YOU for this!! I messaged you on Instagram. Both of your why to move and this one were so so beneficial. I was feeling so unsure as to whether or not I was sure I wanted to move and you just confirmed that that’s what’s next for me!! I am moving 🙌🏽
Yeey, Bali is paradise but definitely is not for everyone. I moved here cus I fell in love to a Balinese man, and I was really lucky that I fell in love with Bali too💙💜
Sorry if there’s racist people,,,,, but just for you to know, Indonesian is build of diversity in every singel things, about skin color we have all color type in Indonesian so don’t feel intimidated about that Mama,
Oh Chidi!!! You are something else! I live through you on this one. Please talk about the medical shots if any one needs to get prior to coming to Bali. Tell us how you say bye in Balinese!😜
Beauty product. Try local, no chemical, as it destroys the land. More people bringing chemical to this land. Try first. Use your energy. Not head. Let that go. You will be more beautiful than you know.
Bukan hanya orang lokal saja yg harus menjaga Bali tapi juga para wisatawan juga harus ikut menjaga keamanan dan kenyamanan Bali, karena sering banyak kasus wisatawan asing yang berbuat seenak nya, tidak menghormati adat, arogan, memang tidak semua nya tapi kalo dibiarkan terus menerus akan semakin byk kasus² yg lain dan merusak citra bali
To mitigate against the bugs situation, especially at night is to wear long sleeve light linen tops and trousers! Learnt the hard way when I lived in Barbados!
Tip for the future. In regards to your hair care, edge control. Learn to make your own out of flaxseed. My daughter makes her own and it works better than the ones on the market. Just look it up on TH-cam. Sharing is Caring Beautiful Queen 💃🏾💃🏾.
As she started talking about that part, I thought, ‘I wonder if there’s something comparable or if she can make her products’ then I looked down and saw your comment lol
@Demi Demi can you share that flaxseed edge control please! Thank you for that tip. Much love, prosperity and peace to you! Love this video with Ms. Chidli. 💕💥
Thank you! I keep wondering when someone would address the bugs. Other than getting eaten by Mosquitos I didn't see any but I was down at a luxury hotel in Nusa Dua so I know that's probably not realistic. I kept thinking between the heat and the bugs, why were there so many outdoor living areas? Still mystery but at least you have confirmed, much creepy crawlies.
Outdoor living is based on their philosophy of communing with nature and fellowmen. I lived in Solo Java for one year. The streets come alive every night with temporary restaurants and vendors. It is very festive.
Not off the streets sis! 😂 But congrats on the new relationship! But agree with all of these points from my trip to Bali. One thing you didn’t cover was the plumbing. I heard some other tourists talk about the plumbing in Bali and how sometimes it smells. I actually switched a villa because of it and went to a hotel where it wasn’t an issue. Do you find this an issue or was that place unsanitary and making excuses?
Some places have bad plumbing but generally you can find lots of villas with good plumbing if it is a more high end villa. I typically just ask prior to booking to make sure if they have filtered water
How are the earthquakes and do you ever worry about tsunamis? Can you make a video about this because I feel like not many people mention these things. I am seriously considering moving there soon after my college graduation in May and I’m trying to also think about the safest places to live for expats/nomads.
Hi, I just came across your channel and I'm loving it. This is the 2nd video I've watched and I most definitely will watch them all. One Question: What is the weather like in Bali year round? Are there any major tropical storms?
What is the shopping like for clothing? I wear a size 16/18 and in America larger sizes are expensive. I actually love love love the way you dress. Where do you find your clothing there?
I go to Bali 2 or 3 times a year. The shopping for larger sizes is more difficult but not impossible like some Asian countries. The best thing is it is cheap to get things tailor made to fit & you get to pick the fabric. All you do it take a photo of what you you see locally and then go to a tailor & they will make it for you very quickly at not much more than buying off the rack.
Welcome 🙏🏼😌 where everything is one. No race. No religion. Everything is above that. Peace. Just really think of what you are bringing here. Is it destroying or helping? 🙂🖐🏽
Missing Bali now. The crack head dogs lol , i once met a bunch of them at night with my friend and they were barking non stop abit scary. I agree that i never experienced racism on my 11 day trip. It was other tourist from Asia at attractions we went that would sometimes stare/take pictures. But Indonesian people i find dont care, they are very welcoming and respectful only curious to know what brought you to Bali.
Oh they stare and laugh at black folks in other Indonesian islands. You see Bali has developed an International Tourism Industry so the folks are more open. I lived in Surakarta Java for one year.
OMG THIS is what I have been looking for. I am going to Bali and am so worried about my hair. I have been looking for hairdressers all over Bali. Is there any you could recommend PLEASE🙏🏾😊
lovely video i love it... im fr nyc.... what do you say is the best communities to look at and live if moving there single mom w children? girl if all i gotta worry about is some edge control, a few insects, limited dating and hair styles... girl listen lollll
Indonisa people are some the most friendliest and sweets people I have ever came across. They’re so warm and welcoming. I have Indonisa friends who I met while traveling in Egypt and am still friends with them to date. Racism doesn’t exist there because they’re Muslims and Islam is against racism.
Anyway if you are black american... People will look at you as westerner. Indonesians know black people from rap and other blink blink culture. We don't see you in negative way (like in USA or Europe). If we talk about racism... Local Indonesians feel more discriminated by Bali travel industry bcs we are looked as not as rich as westerners.. But sometimes colorism is real. But again if you are american, we will see you as rich and cool.
The problem is people go to a third world country and want to live like they did in the U.S. In the summer in most place in the U.S there are bugs and mosqitoes. If you go to a third world country wanting to look glamorous all the time, and have all the convenienes you have in the US then stay in the U.S. I have been in quite a few countries outside the U.S and I like them all better than the U.S because of the authentic and genuine warmth of the people, and a more peacful, non stressful environment which is the most important thing for me.
@@Chidi_Ashley when you are ready to visit let me know! I am a transplant from Boston living here for 20 years. I want to move to Bali to slow life down even more. Lol! 💕
How do you manage to travel ethically? do you shop, eat, stay in Indonesian-owned businesses? Since Bali's biggest moneymaker is in the tourism industry it makes sense that some locals may feel threatened by western companies /people who open businesses in Bali; making it more competitive for the natives.
She does! She has spoken about before and encourages others to utilize local businesses as much as possible. She's talked about exactly what you're writing about.
I travelled solo for the first time last year and actually found love in Bali, a local man. My purpose with the trip was definitely not to find love but I did.. on Valentine's Day

Bugs means the climate is kind and welcoming for everyone to live in, incl. diverse plants & animals. Never too cold or too hot like here in Europe.
In Venezuelan culture geckos are good luck-they’re called home cleaners bc they eat other bugs like spiders

You can imitate the gecko sound so well 😂
How do you manage to travel ethically? do you shop, eat, stay in Indonesian-owned businesses?
Since Bali's biggest moneymaker is in the tourism industry it makes sense that some locals may feel threatened by western companies /people who open businesses in Bali; making it more competitive for the natives.
She does! She has spoken about before and encourages others to utilize local businesses as much as possible. She's talked about exactly what you're writing about.
Live ethically* She lives there.
“How do you manage to support local businesses?” Because ethics is a different question.
Why should she support local businesses when all locals do is rip foreigners off and think we are too stupid to notice?
Does the bug repellent work on those soda can size spiders 😳 Bali’s spiders are massive!
I live in south America and I'm so used to bugs and lizards that I name them
I love the way you laugh ❤️
Great info, thank you for sharing. Go well!
I just can't with lizards and geckos! I'm so scared of lizards 🦎
