Hey Boys,so good to see you after,what seems like ages,but, I've lost track of time this year & can't believe it's almost 2025! I've not been to Bali since the 80/90/early 2000s ,so it was fascinating to see the changes. It is frustrating that being part of the LGBTQ+ Community, means that,though we're everywhere, our experience or the way way we are are perceived is a factor that has to be considered. As a man in their early 60s,it has in a strange way become more difficult with awareness & legal rights,because the antiqued "two gentleman sharing",is now understood for what it is & though the tourist experience is very different, the reality ot being domicile in a country that,at present according to government polls,suggests only 9% of citizen are accepting of your right to simply 'exist',makes Indonesia - while wonderful as a holiday destination - problematic as a home. Being part of the EU, we take much for granted & what's happening in the USA,is at best confusing at worst terrifying. My son is now in his 40s & I have grandchildren, I do empathise with your coming logistics,I've said before you'll be wonderful parents, offering your children, experience, intelligence & empathy as part of their worldview. I flew under the radar as a 'single' father -with a "friend", sharing for economic reasons - & being my biological child gave me, automatically,the same rights as everyone. The happy result of a "try everything once" experience, was one of the best things I've ever done. Having grown up between Ireland,UK, Africa & Oman, I strapped him on with a "papoose" & Bali was a place, where we all had a few wonderful holiday,the locals,so empathetic of my - to them - 'tragic' status,were amazing & opened their homes to us,my little blond muppet rushing around with the local children & picking up more Balanese than I managed in the few months we were there at any one time. Honestly couldn't believe how built up it's become,but,the Island & the people were & I'm sure still are the most beautiful & welcoming places,I've spent a little time. Wishing you&yours the very best & if you don't post again,before, have a very Happy Holidays👋💙💙⭐️'s💯✌️
I have visited Bali 3 times in my life and it is one of the best cities in my home country, Indonesia, In my opinion. One thing that i caught my interest is Bali has many international tourist i think the same numbers as domestic tourist from different cities and island in Indonesia. Kind of miss Bali but hopefully i can explore Bali again in the future. Thank you for visiting Bali again, guys.
I love Bali for visiting, you definitely need a home in Europe and another one in Asia, its gonna be easier for traveling, you are always close to home
One strange thing for me as a Brazilian is the thing about jackfruit, because in Brazil is very common, like close to my school have a square with a lot of trees of jackfruit
Awesome episode. So many beautiful places! Does Bali have the same laws as Indonesia when it comes to LGBT+ rights and such? Indonesia seems to score very low on that aspect. For me, that would be a no-go for living there.
It's beautiful country for traveling. But isn't it little bit scarry cuz it Muslim country (i mean laws for a couple). By the way island is so beautiful.❤
Didn’t Bali have a tsunami awhile ago? Before you move anywhere, check out their laws, customs, etc. It might be beautiful but not necessary friendly to various lifestyles. Another thing you need to consider is your parents. You may need to be able to travel quickly as they are aging and that may prove difficult as well as expensive.

A plane that came down? That could be a bad omen. Take good care of yourselves, please do.
Again, apologies... Love, Australia 🤣
It's beautiful country for traveling.
