As an Australian, Bali is/was a popular holiday destination for families especially for those that love the beach and are into surfing. Flights used to be so cheap, and you could stay at a 5 star resort for less than $80 a night. Now it's so expensive and unaffordable, and I wish I travelled more back in the days before Instagram, KZread, Facebook, Digital Nomads, Covid even existed.. that was the real Bali back then! :(

This is what happens when sustainable tourism is not promoted and local governments do not put restrictions into what expacts can do in countries like this. As a Portuguese citizen I can say that the exact same thing is happening here. Food prices skyrocketed, rent prices are already among the highest in Europe, locals can't afford to live in the cities or downtowns anymore, local culture is slowly disappearing, portuguese language is not the main language that you hear when you're walking the streets, and many more examples that I could write here. Social media platforms and travel based influencers had a big slice of responsability on this. Everybody is constantly promoting a country because of its beauty, of its people and so on, but never talk about the sustainable ways that you could visit or even live in a foreign country without destroying its local economy and culture. The future path of countries like these is already written and we have some examples in prior locations that suffered a boom in tourism before. What happened to that places? Prices kept getting higher and higher that eventually it was not worth anymore to visit or live there, so a lot of hotels, villas, restaurants and other businesses were doomed to close and were just abandoned, transforming a place that was once known for its tourism into ghost towns. Christian, I follow your work since 2016 and me and my girl love it but we can also affirm that if travel based influencers do not change the way they promote all these locations, every gem location in this planet will be destroyed in a matter of a few years. Governments won't do much because they will always seek for those fast tax returns, but they tend to forget that those tax returns won't last long. If you are willing to make a change and create a more conscious approach to travel, me and my girl are willing to help you and who knows, be part of your amazing project and start a change in this industry before it is too late. I know you are conscious and an empathic guy that can not sleep well when problems like this one start to get very very serious, in fact, one of your major businesses might be in danger as well unfortunately. I hope you can read my words and think about them 🙏

Visiting Bali can be nice. Lived the for 5 years and honestly it was nothing like before...so I had to move out. Not just because prices were way higher but because it feels the island doesn't have the same magic. Of course if you go to places like Amed or Lovina you will be alone, but then everything around Canggu and the Bukit is western and for westerners. Gyms, yoga, spas, restaurants, clubs, partys, etc. Where is the culture? Where are the locals? Just working for us bules? It feels terrible. And of course I love to go to different restaurants every night, but when it's too much it's too much. Also the audacity of some people living there now...honestly. Rudeness, not following the rules, being nasty towards locals. It's unbelievable. Found myself being more angry than happy because of those things 😕

(Never cooked at home), partying, clothes, yoga, dance, singing 3-4 times a week. Travels were extra. It was extremely cheap back then. I loved it! :)

My wife and I moved to Bali in 2019 and got to experience that nostaglic time you mentioned. It was amazing! Since then, we moved back to the States and now we have a 2 year old.

Oh well that happens when digital nomads wanna make living selling there vacation pictures.

He didn't cover Ubud, it took us an hour to get across town (less than a kilometer / on a scooter)! We went East, not great there either. We did find some solace above Lovina in a the North.

Interesting video - thanks for sharing. I've been visiting Bali since the early 1990s, visiting a few times a year. And yes it's changed a lot over time. I talk to my older friends who were visiting/ living there back in the late 60s and 70s, and they have some wild stories to tell - but still their experience was FAR DIFFERENT than anything I experienced, or that we experience today. Bali is an evolving place - change is inevitable. That said, I have a lot of local friends there and your very neutral tone of the change with Russian folks arriving is not how my local friends have expressed their feelings of the influx. They feel many of the new arrivals are arrogant and rude - treating them like servants or slaves. So a quick PSA: when visiting Bali - please be kind. Please be considerate. Please don't be rude and treat anyone poorly. You don't do any of us non-locals any favors by being a jerk. Thanks in advance for your consideration. 🙂

There has been a huge influx of moneyed expats into Bali the last few years, including yourself. In a few of your videos several months ago you covered your building of your hotel. If you get lots of expats investing lots of money and more and more people being drawn in by the hype then everything is going to cost more and continue to increase in cost. As long is there continues to be high demand like there currently is then supply vs demand will continue to push up costs.

I get your point, but isn’t this situation the same everywhere (touristy destination areas I mean)? Like Mexico for example, a lot of westerners buy places there for investments (rental places) or many parts of CARRIBEAN, or other Asian countries, well, pretty much tropical destinations. The only difference in my opinion is that these other places I’ve mentioned are bigger and actually plan infrastructure for growth and what not. Bali on the other hand isn’t that big and even though tourist demands are growing or a lot of expats are flocking in their infrustructure stays the same , I don’t know, perhaps it’s a problem with their own government being corrupted and they just put this money to fill their own pockets instead of making life better for local people. I’m not too familiar with their politics but that would be my guess. All in all I don’t know how this benefits the local people, probably it benefits them in some ways but also hurts them in other ways. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I lived there recently for just under two months. No one can pay me to live in Canggu. I had to venture out to other places which were not infested with rude, nasty, foreigners/tourists (specially Russians) to have a good time and experience the culture and beauty of this magic island.

Everyone watching KZreadrs promote Bali during the 2 to 3 years of Covid has led to this huge influx of demand now that travel restrictions have lifted. The whole world wants to move to Bali.

ubud is lower prices than canggu. u will have to pay $40-60 in canggu my guess now. $30 was minumum last year i found. food dunno

Great video''this gave me an idea of the lifestyle there❤😊

Amazing information

Bali first time 1997. No restaurants on beach at Jimbaran two on other side of the road, amazing seafood, lads climbed a tree for coconuts to make us a cocktail Sorry you never experienced real Bali. Nigel and Yani Mason could say the same about me. Yanis bar awesome.. That was when the world was a simpler place and people spoke with each other not text messages. Think you don't understand what you have missed. Must add it was dear to fly then. Cost 3k with flights for and rooms for 8 days for 2 pax.

$40/day on food? Woah! As a single guy who eats really good, I probably spend $40 a week in Michigan.

Very Informative video, makes a lot of sense as living here too! Just want to ask how did you do the mapping graphics? pretty cool!

Developing, developing, developing, building, building, more more more.... Yeah... for sure sounds awesome.

We just came from 8 months in the Philippines, life was super cheap and easy and here we are in Bali for the summer. time will tell which is pricier now. Great video! 800 vids online is a huge accomplishment! our little channel with 50 has some major goals now! Way to go bro. keep it up!

@@bungelonlevel2862 you are wrong. I'm American as well as a multi tour military veteran, and I own guns, so I know what I'm talking about. guns don't kill people or cause violence... horrid people do. stop listening to the news. the Philippines is better than Bali in every way in 2023. In the 12 days since I made this 1st comment we have seen just how ugly it has gotten. We had booked to be here for 3 months and now are leaving tomorrow. and if you learn world history, not having guns just means the government can control everything you do and own your soul. Anyone could come and take what you have right now. Guns enable safety and security.

a little tone deaf? the whole idea here is that influencers have ruined Bali, no?

Very well done video!!!!

Incredible update, packed with great info. Reminds me of Hawaii getting more and more expensive to where locals are priced out.

Funnily enough videos like these make the prices go up as more tourists go there lol

For digital nomads who wants an experience similar for maybe less money and in Europe: try the Canary Islands

I love folks who jump right in and start narrating. ❤ Intros. are only interesting to the uploaders but jot to the beholders.

Amazing 😍😍

I watched a documentary about how the local people are being forced to move into the outskirts, losing seafront properties, their homes because hotels and investors are buying up premium land because of the booming tourism industry. At what cost though? Price of living has been driven up to the point that locals struggle to afford a comfortable life in their own country. Tourism is a double edged sword.

Are you sure there were local beach front houses? When batu balong and berawa was still undeveloped, there were mostly empty land and bushes. Local houses are mostly along the main roads and gangs. Beachfront houses have high erosion and maintenance costs. Anyone selling their houses become millionaire in USD and could move to quieter residential area with bigger land. Most locals or workers from other islands live in Denpasar with lower rental and food prices.

I'm here right now and was talking to my friends about all the points you made in this video. It's so much more expensive than I remember. The traffic is insane. And it feels like there are more foreigners than locals. But I do disagree with the airport arrival. Immigration was crazy and I stood in line for 1.5 hours.

this is expected, if youtubers and influencers go there, then all people will follow and create more demand and higher prices.. you are actually driving this by your videos!

Wow it's fantastic 😍😍

Amazing video

Man, here are the budget travel videos I need and love. Keep these types of videos going!

Thank you. We are planning to go to Bali this summer for 1 months 😅 and we were looking where to rent a villa and I checked different places like Seminyak, Nusa Dua. We are thinking about Canggu right now since we need to work remotely and we need some restaurants and life around us. After watching your video about the traffic I have some doubts about Canggu. We are family with kids so we will need a car and spending time a traffic could be very annoying 😅 thank you so much for the video and I subscribed for the tour guide 🤙🏻🤙🏻

Hi Anastasia, Canggu is the cool/dgital nomad place to go. You would have a lovely time in Sanur, easy to get around and good for families.

the location of nusa dua is more organized and neat, the streets are wider than those in canggu and seminyak, so you dont need to get stuck in traffic if you go outside the hotel. the internet is very fast, location is quite at night, the beach is clean & not crowded and usually used as a location for international events such as the G20. canggu and seminyak is suitable for people who love to party at beach club and surfing

@@lostleblanc Hey Christian, could you please elaborate on what the “woke western policies” are that Bali will help people escape from?

Well pointed out the current issues in Bali. Just Canggu is sick, were in Pererenan, it was still ok. But Canggu and Ubud is so overcrowded, it is not even high season. Can not quite understand the Bali hype and I have never seen so many superficial people in one place.

Nice video, good job. I'm from Ukraine. And I've been your subscriber already for five years. It was not nice to hear you link Russians and Ukrainians when we are at war and part of my country is occupied by Russia... I'm glad you can go home to your parents at any time, but because of the Russian war, millions of Ukrainians can't go back and are looking for a place to live during this difficult time. I'm among them.

I pay 260 dollars for two bedroom local house 5 min from the beach by scooter, located near to Balangan and Dreamland beach. you can live cheap and nice in Bali if u want and know how. Canggu is basically little western city in Bali but anyways, been here long enough, lived in Cangu for about 3 years and honestly I don't know why people still like it, horrible place. Better come to Uluwatu, real beaches and surf is here, amazing nature and clean air. Crazy developing already as well tho,going to be next Canggu:D
