- I MOVED TO INDONESIA | Take a look inside my new life in Gili Trawangan Lombok. Living local style on the way to my dream life. I've wanted to live in Indonesia for a long time and I finally made it happen.
This is the story of how I moved to Indonesia to create my dream life.
If you've wondered how to move to Indonesia or what it's like living on a tiny island, my channel is probably going to be insightful for you. This real life lifestyle content is the new direction of my channel. I hope you like it :)

Ahhh a kindred spirit! Really relate to this as someone who fell in love with Indonesia after my first trip to Sumatra 12 years ago. From the first moment I stepped foot in the country, I could no longer keep up the "act" of my "real life" in New Zealand. Ended up coming here a few years before COVID. Lived in Sumatra, a few months in Bali, then a year in Gili T - before the pandemic messed it all up! As soon as borders opened up, I came straight back to North Sumatra and have been living here (at Lake Toba) ever since. 18 months and counting and I still pinch myself every single day. It's an absolute privilege. Looking forward to seeing your Gili journey - we did enjoy living there for our year, but it's not where we wanted to be long-term: Sumatra has our hearts. :)
I loved Sumatra too, I travelled there 20 yrs ago. Taking my family to Gili T next week, looking fwd to being in Indonesia again 💜
Amazing! Sumatra must have been so beautiful 20 years ago too. How exciting you're heading back to Indonesia - have the best time!@@bluestarfishsea
@@ExploringSumatra thk you 🙏
Greetings from Jakarta, have a great time in Lombok, nice life and hope you are always in great health. Peace 🕊️
Thank you Abdul and same to you 🙏
Smart move. Research is the key. Content with a simple life brings rewards.
Yes I agree! I think the simplicity of island life is what makes it so sweet.
I just hit the subs button straight away because it's so relieving for me to see someone chasing their dreams. Leaving all behind. You were had the right move to have a band then going to set up villa. Just be careful the process, could be very tricky. But I believe you have been research the best way to make it happen. Looking forward for your Gily daily life and project. Semoga sehat selalu, sukses dan makin fasih Bahasa Indonesia nya. Salam dari Batam, Kepulauan Riau ❤🌹
Thank you so much for your lovely comment! I hope to visit Riau one day too
Wooowww...it's such a big decision, hats off ... Wellcome to Gili ....Enjoy The adventure
Thanks, I love it here!
Excellent video i am older than you, but can very much relate. Still living here in oz ourselves. You seem to be a real go getter and achiever, impressive. I am feeling the same way as you were and it hit home when you said " resenting the ones closest to you", we have a villa in bali but its not suitable for us to live in, it really is a small investment property. However we have found a wonderful block of land in the hidden hills and the cooler temperatures are attractive to us. The local family were so welcoming to us it felt like home so we made an offer as they were keen to sell several different blocks. However they showed us the one pce of land - over half an acre. my husband and i both felt it. My husband keeps talking about the move in years and years time like i think hes talking 5 to 7 years, i know im thinking 1 or 2 and have talked about it but financially we need a plan. To sell our home here in australia is a big leap or faith and a bit scary and 49 and 50 year olds. I need to work it out as i know i am not leading the life i want or need.
congratulations 🎉
Gili T full of wonder women 🤙🏼
Haha yes that's true 😝
Good luck Roxanne, may your dream wish come true. Welcome to my lovely country...

Woohoo thanks so much for noticing! I love to make subtle little things in my videos like this. This one we actually made the zoom part digitally because we filmed the dolly move with a gimbal using a fixed lens and then did the zoom part in editing. I surprised myself that it actually worked 😂😂😂

What's your monthly expenses for a single person? how do you get permanent residency?@@RoxanneTaylorMedia
I'm in the first stage of your video. Scary but in my heart I know that moving to Indonesia is what I want 😮💨🥹
Ooh good luck! Yes it can be a bit scary but I believe there is no greater regret than not doing something that you feel in your soul you are supposed to do

Aww thank you so much Anna!! 🙏🏽🙏🏽

Hi Roxie really enjoyed your Authentic, honesty video especially we’re you felt you were home in Gillies and happy there and different back in Australia
So many of us think about but never do because we’re scared or just don’t know we’re too start.
Well looking forward to more content from you.

Thanks you so much for all these amazing recommendations!!
So far, I’ve only been to Java, Bali, Lombok, Sumbawa and Bima but I want to see all these places you mention! Hopefully I can organise a trip soon
Sure would be nice to know the process you went through to start a business in Indonesia 🇮🇩
I used an agent to help set up because it’s quite complicated with many documents required.
I'm your new friend Roxy.....I've subscribed.....a new business item is English course for local people.......
Thank you so much! Ooh that is a good idea 🤩
Your Indonesian is so good

Congrats on finding your home Roxanne! I’m visiting with my fam for a month soon. My husband likes to drink rum, curious…can we buy bottles on the island or should we bring some?
Thank you 😊 yes there is an alcohol shop on the island and most bars sell spirits. For the best value, it would be cheapest to buy it in duty free on your way over
Nice❤
Thank you!
Wonderful INDONESIA ❤ 🇮🇩
Yesss my favourite country 🇮🇩
Happy indonesia New Year 2024 for you
Thank you and happy new year to you too!
Roxanne: My admiration! I wonder what you think. I've traveled all over the world, mostly alone, but not since Covid. Now, still with the desire to go and live elsewhere than the USA, I'm in my 70s. How would I be received in GT?
Hello Roxanne, your decition to move there was amazing. I invite you to my village in central java, we have beautiful nature & wonderfull people. I will give you the place to stay, food and everything to support you here for free when you visit here, i will bring you to amazing place in the village, we will explore the jungle & we will learn how people survive in here.
Thank you so much for your lovely offer! Hopefully one day I will get back to Java 🙏
in another hemisphere. Rich countries are facing a migration crisis. but Australia didn't experience that. instead Australians migrated to Indonesia
We are very nearby and many Australians frequent Indonesia a lot.
I feel the same way
🥰
🎉🎉🎉
Thanks so much for your support Cikal!!! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
I want to retire in Indonesia
I am in the states and my fiancé is here with her son and he will go to school here and after we will retire in Indonesia
Gili looks nice
Datang ke lombok timur
Yesss! If you watch my newest video, you will see Lombok Timur is very special to me for my love story 😍
@@RoxanneTaylorMedia oke saya akan menonton nya
why indonesia among all other south eas asian counries ,, hope you can make a video about that ,,, and another video about difference between indonesia and australia
They are great ideas! I think the weather, people and language is the main thing.
1 years i living in darwin city
☀️🙏🏽
wah, sepertinya anda sudah bisa berbicara dalam bahasa indonesia dengan baik. 🤔😅
semoga mimpi anda bisa segera terwujut,.
Terima kasih kak 🙏🏽
@@RoxanneTaylorMedia Semangat 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
i could never live in indonesia, i was there for the first time last week and it was horrible. Yes you see all the nice villas etc however, even with the nice villa there’s always something dirty about the place
What area were you staying? I think it's good to experience the villages and the local culture
Welcome Mrs, try learn bahasa. 👍🏻
Terima kasih 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Recite quran to get calm in heart
Hallo sayang❤
Can you actually buy land there, in your name? Otherwise, it's always very risky, however much in love one is.
Yes! One has to have a PT PMA (foreign-owned Indonesian company), which is a legal Indonesian entity.
@@RoxanneTaylorMedia Okay :)
Please don’t use the horse and carts. The horses are over worked and not treated well😢
istri saya asli lombok dan saya berasal dari pulau jawa khusu nya jawa barat. Mungkin nanti akhir desember akan pulang ke lombok. hehe
Yaaaa Lombok indah sekali
What a beautiful story 🙏 there is definitely something magical about Bali and for those (like you and I) who are touched by its magic, it makes Bali a part of you forever. Bali is my second home 😌 it’s amazing in every way ❤️ happy travels 🙏
She is not in Bali.
@@robbist wkwkwkkwkwkkkk.......she is in Gili Trawangan ......
@@bambangsupeno735 I know she is. But the dumb shit above was going on and on about Bali.
