    Bali's not known for its whooring, its mostly surfing , swirling bintangs with yer besties, making a cnut of yourself, that sort of thing. Personally I reckon it's over rated and it's only redeeming feature is its close to Oz and cheap and the folks are nice . Since covid the airlines have me by the balls and going through Bali with the family is the cheapest option, personally I would give it a swerve but figure I might as well get of and stretch the legs, swirl a few frostys

    @backspin - what BLD^ said. My visit to Bali was very short (4 days) and I just did the usual touristy stuff like temples, ruins in the jungle, spa day, beach day, etc. I made a pic thread about it here.

    Re: ladies of the night, I didn't see any but I was told that there are bars/ clubs in Kuta or Legian where you'll find ladies who are "friendly".

    If you'll be coming from Canada then directly to Bali, I think it's too far and if you're not a temple/ jungle-loving person/ yoga spiritual type person/ digital nomad (or what the Aussies do - drink beer & get pissed ) then as BLD said, it may not be worth your while.

    However, if you're coming to PH and want a short getaway from PH, then Bali is just 3 or 4 hrs away. (similar flight time to BKK or Kuala Lumpur) Pre covid, Cebu Pacific airline flew to Bali 2x/ week, so one could stay there either 4 or 7 days for a short vacay. I don't know the schedule of the airline now.

    If you're interested in Bali, watch the vids of Gabriel Traveler - I liked his Bali series.

    He'll have gone off it since being told there aren't that many hookers.

    ^probably. <Shrugs>

    I think Backspin is scheduled to visit PH with his Filipina wife? If yes, then they'll probably spend some time with her folks, etc. Then maybe he's searching for where to hop off from Manila.

    I think his wife would enjoy Bali. It's a popular tourist destination for yuppies/millenials here, since there are lots of Instagrammable places. I've seen some FB friends post pics from Bali (or BKK, SG, HK - those are the popular ones). Those with more wealth and/ or travel experience go to Korea or Japan. (PH citizens need visas for both countries.)

    I combined my first trip to the Phils with a visit to Hong Kong.

    Good trip.

    Haha. Can't afford. I am making over a $1000 a month on interest.

    Especially when the furthest you venture from Surrey is 30 kilometers away. Big outing of plane spotting. Nice to dream about real travel eh moron?
