The Free Bali Guide: A Local-Minded Travel Guide
Bali gave me my first real exhale. I found an island that changed how I wanted to live, and eventually I moved there and taught at an international school. Written in 2014, this free guide is everything I wish I'd known on that first trip: where to stay, what to eat, how to get around, and how to find the Bali that doesn't show up on a tour bus itinerary. Sure, some of the businesses may not exist anymore, but this free guide is loaded with cultural cues every visitor to Bali should know. Confirm current prices and venues before you go,
Written from my own time on the island, it's packed with the tips, spots, and little lessons that helped me fall in love with Bali and stay.
