Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm in Uber ble Indonesia the furthest I've ever traveled I'm here for a week and you are coming with me

It has moved me more than I ever imagined just listening to the locals the Balinese people talking about their upbringing about their spirituality about mythology

I felt so welcomed and even though there was a language barrier we both showed a mutual respect for one another and we just thankful for one another it was so touching

I haven't seen a single spider at all apart from yesterday on the tour and that road that area is well known for those particular spiders congregating

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Book trips in advance using Get Your Guide for convenience and value
โœ“Hire a private driver for a day to explore the island efficiently
โœ“Bring adapters for European-style sockets in hotel rooms
โœ“Be prepared for the currency (Indonesian Rupiah) as it has many zeros
โœ“Don't be put off by wildlife; it's a fascinating part of the experience
