    Ahhhh can we all stop for a sec and give Monica a massive prop for the music selection and amazing cinematography on every video? I understand her choice being behind the camera but definitely can't make this channel as amazing without her! All the best and enjoy the heat you two!! Much love..

    P.Smith: I'm a Brit. who comes to Bali every year, usually for two months, this time still here after three! During Covid due to no flights in or out, I got stuck here, for 5 months. Lucky me!
    I love Bali, but most of all, I love the Balanese, always friendly, ready to say "hello" with a big happy smile.
    Freddie's video was beautifully filmed. He did a really good job.
    There's a place for all types of people on Bali.
    Canggu is an 'in' place for the 18 to 30s; Nusa Dua has by far the best beach on the island. It has fabulous hotels & some lovely houses to rent at a similar price to Freddie & Monika's one room! In my opinion it's the best place for families,older people & those who enjoy something a bit quieter.
    Ubud is the place for those who want culture & art & for those that like living in spectacular forrest/jungle areas, the top of the island is great, the best tiered Paddy fields are around the Tabanan region.
    Kuta is a busy, noisy town, best for those who like hectic, party nightlife.
    Freddie is 100% correct regarding the Honda Scoopy. I'm a great fan & use one regularly, they're terrific. (pillion seats a bit hard though.). I have seen police stop riders for not wearing helmets, so be warned! Due to incredibly heavy traffic, the fumes can be bad, but electric scooters are now being seen on the roads.
    Well done Freddie & Monika!

    Great video- the scooter presence there is on a whole other level. I was impressed with the guy lugging a ladder on one then 2 seconds later some other dude beats that with his dog chilling on the deck as it zips past you guys. 😂 Crazy!

    Reminds me to my teenager days spending the summer with my grandparents at their village. I was riding locally around the village in a 50cc mopped, no helmet, shorts and flip flops. And those are my best memories, pure freedom, no stress no responsibilities. Sometimes you have compromise safety a bit in order to enjoy life! And that’s fine mate 👍🏻 Also at 11:46, that’s a very interesting name for a shop isn’t it 😂 cheers Freddie & Monika

    You're absolutely right about the motorbike being the only way to get around there. I was lucky enough to be over there over the Christmas period and because we were in a larger group we had to get round in taxi. The waits in traffic was agony, crawling along and watching the bikes whizz by - darting in and out of traffic and footpaths! Had to cut travel time by 4x at least! What a place! Loving the videos Freddie and Monika

    I love Bali, i have been there twice and also rented a Motorbike. You mentioned the International Drivers Licence in your last Video, it is not that useless. There was Police at the side of the road in Bali and they pulled us over. When i got my international Drivers licence out, they immediatly said we should move on, without even taking a look at it.

    It looks like a beautiful place and not spoilt by silly local government, loved the bike traffic jam 😂It's one of those places where it works, people just get on with life and I guess it's the closest to real freedom you can get these days.

    Oh my! I was in Bali for 2 weeks over Christmas and NYE and this makes me miss how amazing this place is! I stayed between Ubud and Amed so didn't check out the busier areas of the south. Also got badly injured while riding a bike so had to get stiches and doctors to visit me every 2 days. Flew back to Singapore to have scans etc after my time in Bali was over but I still had an absolutely amazing time! Enjoy!

    The Scoopy is a great bike, tons of fun. I know it might seem easy to ride with flip flops on, especially with a step through like the Scoopy, but I would say shoes and gloves are the most important gear to wear. a good friend of mine is missing three toes on his right foot as a result of a fairly low speed crash while riding with flip flops in Phuket. Just something to keep in mind. Cheers.

      One of my motorcycles is a 2004 reg 125 cc Honda Innova 9-3 HP auto clutch 4 speed step thru cub type motorcycle . Also known as Honda waves ,in the far east built in Thailand . I have never had a Honda or Suzuki machine break down on me in around 50 years of motorcycling . The small step thru motorcycles & twist & rip scooters are ideal , for nipping about tropical resorts & small islands in casual summer attire at relaxed speeds ,it’s no more risky than somebody in Lycra riding a push bike . When in Rome do as the locals do 👍

    Excellent Sunday morning vlog as ever from you both.
    Seeing this video Bali isn't what I expected it to be, 40% down on normal tourist numbers and it's just so busy with the roads crammed with scooter riders, great experience though for sure.
    If there's one thing that irritates me is when I read or hear about any incident on our news is when they describe scooters as mopeds, grrrr, mopeds were partially powered by pedals, yes I know terms have moved on and I suppose the younger generation simply don't know the origin of the term moped.
    Anyway I digress, apartment looks great and I like Monika's choice of helmet and Freddie don't feel too guilty about the scooter in your last vlog, time is a great healer. Ha! Ha!

      It must be a generational thing because I think most people under 40 would have no idea of the origin of the word “moped”😳
      My classmates cool enough to get a 50 or 125cc scooter at 16/17 would all call them mopeds (“peds” for short).
      I had no idea what a moped was until a week ago. I realise that this is a bit ridiculous of me

    Hi Freddie, thanks for the Great Video to the two of you! One thing I didn‘t get: your stay there has not been very recently, or? I thought, you have been to Singapore and than to Bali in the last weeks, as your videos normally are very fresh😉 Thanks again!

    South East Asian rider here. You may want to consider switching to a "maxi-scooter" such as those NMAX you saw or the Honda PCX160, for an upgrade in roominess, plusher suspension and more grunt for 2 up riding.

    My woman has a Scoopy. Surprisingly nippy. Cost: 1100 GBP new in Thailand. I have a Yamaha Aerox 155 as my everyday transport. Same engine as the N-Max. I wear a light mesh jacket, mesh gloves and mesh boots. Roof Boxer V8 helmet.
    900 GBP per month sounds a lot for the digs. We've got a banana tree in our garden. Didn't half grow fast.
    Expensive coffee. Great coffee for a quid here. It all sounds rather expensive compared to Thailand. For example, Saturday night we had three big dishes between us, a still water and a fizzy water in an upmarket restaurant for 11 GBP. We are right up north, though.

    Traffic chaos yet it all works because everyone seems to be so laid back and no one seems to get upset. Clearly the right attitude on the road.

    Wow, please could you do a chummy interview with a mulleted Australian. You have the wit and diplomacy to find the cultural heritage contained in….. ‘Happy Hour’. What a diverse channel you two present! Just think back to the Cornish episode with the gunpowder industry reverted back to nature. Great stuff!

    One quick question - if you had to choose between Tenerife & Bali for a month away from the UK winter where do you go?

    I am travelling now in Malaysia and Thailand, this time I even brought my own full face helmet bc I was planning to rent some serious bikes. I also got gloves and a revit motorbike jacket. But honestly, I am pretty much the only one wearing that kind of gear. I remember back in the 90s first time riding a scooter in Koh Samui I did not even used a helmed. Thank god nothing ever happened 😊🎉

      Agreed. Most of those scooter riders look like tourists. I'm pretty sure few of them are experienced riders

    • @FreddieDobbs
      @FreddieDobbs  Рік тому +2

      The funny thing is, I bet almost all of the people in the touristy area have no formal bike training. It’s a madness that somehow works. Very aggressive, but never ride, with no anger at all. I haven’t seen any crashes… so far!
      Thank you so much for being kind enough to follow the channel- it’s hugely appreciated!🙂

    crickey this makes us miss bali, bring s back some wonderful memories especially Lembongan, are you heading over. do remember the traffic being just as hectic especially Ubud but who gives a Scooby when your on a Honda 😁. enjoy to the max and interesting about entry requirements and for us especially. love the vid and Monikas choice of transport. hope to see a vid soon of her riding through the rice fields 😍😁. would be interesting to see the cost comparison of large capacity bikes as I remember that was horrifyingly expensive. think a triumph 1200 scrambler for example was something like €30,000
