Bali Expat Health Insurance
Singapore the ‘go to’ hospital destination for Bali expats
Singapore is the ‘go to’ place for Bali expats, when they have a medical emergency. Locally we have a couple of good clinics, SOS International and BIMC, and Sanglah hospital in Denpasar for emergency surgery. If you need surgery and you have the choice, get on a plane to Singapore.

Working in Bali
Many people dream of moving to Bali and finding a job. Legally and realistically its not hard. You can get hold of any type of visa you like simply by hiring an immigration consultant and the government does not come sniffing around individuals for tax purposes. The main problem for new arrivals is what do you do. I get emails from people on a regular basis who ask me, ‘do you know how I can make money?’, ‘what is your suggestion for me?’ My suggestion is that you figure out how to make money at home, then when you come to Bali you will know what direction to go in. The expat newspaper, The Bali Advertiser, carries ads offering jobs and requesting jobs. I see the same requests month after month.

Motorbike accident in Kuta Bali
Motorbike accidents are something most of us don’t want to think about. I’m sure that after having a crash, one has more respect for safety and takes a different view of riding. BaliBelly talks about his motorbike crash in Bali and how he got fixed up.

Bali Expat Forum: Information from people who live in Bali
Living on Bali is a dream for many people, but what is it really like for a foreigner? As Bruce Lee would say ‘if you want to learn how to throw punches, ask a man who does it for a living’ (a boxer).

Jevon is moving along well in Seminyak Bali
Thursday Ika, Jevon and I went to Puri Bunda hospital on Jl. Gatut Subroto in Denpasar. We go once a month for regular check ups and immunisasi. This time Jevon got a Hep B shot. We have always taken the taxi, but since the petrol prices went up, taxi prices doubled. I hate sitting in a taxi in a traffic jam watching the clock tick over. We took the motorbike, which for me was less stress, because I took a route that avoided the usual blockages and could keep moving.
