#WIP - Work In Progress
Hello Brothers ,
Yes, even as a regular White French guy :
I did not choose to expatriate to East Europe.
Which is definitely one of the best choice for a Better Life. I love Estonia where I’ve already been.
I will try my best here to explain why i’ve choosed Bali as my New Home
- Based on my experience : I’ve been living in Indonesia around 5 months this past year.
Of course, I warmly recommend you the #46 DBL Live about Indonesia :
1 - Why Indonesia ?
I captured myself all the pictures you will see here.
More pictures here
Sunrise & Sunset at Gili Meno - Tiny Island Close To Bali (2 hours of from Bali)
Komodo - One of the Best National park where to Dive in the World. (2 hours from Bali)
1.1 - Indonesia reconnects yourself with our Mother Nature.
Hiking on Volcanos / Diving / Surfing / Island Life etc.
That’s totally subjective : but I am amazed almost everywhere I go.
I feel a strong spiritual energy here, people truly respect their environment.
Earthquake / Volcano Eruption / Crazy Rainy Storm / Tough Hot Weather :
- You remember here that we are simply humans, Nature Dominates Us.
And I love this feeling personally, the atmosphere & their multiple cultures that fascinates me.
About me, Scuba-diving & FreeDiving are truly strong Passions. I also practice Yoga a lot & develop my spiritual side.
So yes, obviously my profile matches with Indonesia
1.2 - Huge Country with so many cultures & places to discover.
How can you get bored when there are 17,504 different Indonesian Islands to visit ?
1.3 - Big Business Opportunities in Tourism Sector.
Not easy as a foreigner if you don’t have true local friends or family there.
I start to have strong & trustful network here. Especially thanks to my future wife, she is Balinese.
So don’t worry, I already have great opportunities for you, thanks covid, if you are a potential Investor
2 - Why Bali ?
Here a short Video Presentation about Bali around Area :
2.1 - Perfect for Digital Nomads
So many Digital Nomads here from all around the world. You will find great coworking spaces where you can meet people and start Networking for instance.
