Our Bali Cost of Living Monthly: How much living here costs in 2021

[@JeanVoronkova]

Hey guys! A lot of you have also asked specifically about healthcare, insurance, dental etc related costs for Bali so we did a video exactly on that. You can check it out here > kzbin.info/www/bejne/oqWliWiYmb6EZ6s Together with this video that should give you a pretty comprehensive idea about living costs in Bali! Hope it helps!

[@loveknowsnoborder]

Could you please suggest a web platform to search for rental properties in Bali ?

[@JeanVoronkova]

None of the web platforms work very well we recommend u check out groups on Facebook for Bali accommodation instead

Thanks for settling in Bali and amazing informative video! For those of you considering living in Indonesia, with the $1400 - 1500 budget per month you can live comfortably in any places of Indonesia. That is considered a mid-high expenditure, so even with $200-400 less budget you can still have a good live! I hope I don't sounds judging, please enjoy anyway you are happy! cheers!

[@JeanVoronkova]

thanks Herdhanu i'm glad u enjoyed the video! Our budget of $1.5k is for 2 people who eat a lot haha.... n i do agree that if we trimmed our (mainly food) expenses more we can cut off $200-400 without much difficulty! 😄🙏👍

[@JeanVoronkova]

Hi Seminyak is where a lot of the action is although if u r new to Bali u might enjoy that a lot. We r up in the Bukit near Jimbaran area n that’s predominantly cos we r surfers n the better more advanced surfing is here in the Bukit (up the hill nearer to Uluwatu). U shd probably try living around a few different areas to really find what suits u! Ubud doesn’t have sea access but it’s very peaceful n green n yogic

Dengan down payment 1.000.000 rupiah kamu bisa miliki motor yg dicicil 500.000 per bulan selama 29 bulan motor jadi milik sendiri. Jika dijual kembali di tahun ke 4, harga motor masih lumayan, sekitar 7 juta.

[@JeanVoronkova]

Thank u for sharing this price information - so useful! 😍👍🏼

[@broery8971]

Itu suatu yang murah untuk orang local tapi akan berbeda dengan turis berurusan dengan pajak kendaraan dan document ribet jadi lebih mahal....

[@KelasKriptoCepod]

I usually start forwarding the clips as boring, but I actually watched the whole thing. Nice video

[@JeanVoronkova]

oh that's really nice to hear - i do the same mostly, we all have such short attention spans these days heh but hey thanks

[@missiemessoud4165]

@@JeanVoronkova 100% most videos are clickbait or not informative. But yours was to the point and real son thanks.

[@zzsebzz]

Great information. What about personal safety and security in Bali as a foreigner?

[@JeanVoronkova]

As long as u stay out of Kuta area generally its wonderful. I feel very safe and welcome here as a female and as a bule ( foreigner )....

[@baharuddinabubakar1777]

Hi...nice to know you by all your video of Bali, indonesia. My name is Leo, from Surabaya City of Indonesia. Your detail living in Bali is really help other people how much cost for staying Bali. I very suppriced that this idea came from you. Thanks for your idea to promoted our Bali Island.

[@JeanVoronkova]

Hi Leo, thank u for your kind note! We’re very happy to be here in Bali and in Indonesia and we hope the video is useful to people out there who wanna understand living costs in bali more 🙏🌻😄

[@unsulliedthe832]

Looks idyllic almost like a dream! Beautiful land and nice people. I must visit Bali one day for an extended vacation. Do you plan to live there forever? Beyond a vacation, how do you adapt to a new culture, and how would you cope when boredom or drudgery starts creeping in 6 months or two years down the road?

[@JeanVoronkova]

We’ve both separately n together lived in many different places across the world. Bali is our conclusion after all those experiences. Being here is the result of over 6-8 years of dedicated financial planning (saving n investing etc w this end goal in mind). We wanna be here precisely because we r passionate about surf, fitness n art n music n we can live here n do all that so everyday is a productive day for us. We’re never really bored n it feels quite busy each day to be honest.

Hello Everyone, I am new here. I accidentally saw the video when you cut your hair in '20 (our hair there looks so alike :) and who knew.. I am here now and appreciating your videos. (Happens rather rarely otherwise.) Kind regards

[@JeanVoronkova]

heya there! nice! i hope that whether its the hair tutorials or the bali videos they are helpful/entertaining to u 😂😂😂 have a great weekend TGIF!!

[@baliwalknshops1517]

Very useful information

[@ShellyBomb]

My goodness, everything is so reasonably priced in Bali; especially since I live in Southern California 🏖️

[@michaelharrison9535]

Thank you so much. Enjoyed your presentation.

[@JeanVoronkova]

Cheers Michael glad u enjoyed the video!

[@enricodjakman5710]

Glad you find Bali as your home. Hope you are always healthy and successful in what you are doing.

[@insanprasetyo2265]

Next time try Jogjakarta, it's cheaper and Bali-like Natures and Places with Traditional Java Cultures, also learn Javanese it's a beautiful language

[@p6h14]

I'm considering jogja also.. seems nice and I'm Buddhist also

[@martinqvbpro4223]

Always love the way you tell story The best story telling..real deal U are good in controlling your tone

[@JeanVoronkova]

Thanks Martin 😄 happy Sunday to u

[@rickbold9337]

Jean, you mentioned that you are staying long term and I was just wondering if it is difficult to get visas for living there long time? Thanks.

[@TalesofTowhid]

Thanks a lot for the video. These are exactly the info I was looking for. In my opinion I should not look for luxury in expensive villas and stuffs. In Indonesia the real luxury lies in its nature and amazing people, the overall experience.

[@JeanVoronkova]

U r so right! Like bingo x 100 haha

[@iloveshimin]

Great video! Thanks 😄

[@JeanVoronkova]

Sure, cheers 😄👍🏼

Ohhhh SINGAPORE, and husband RUSSIAN. That is fantastic! Bless you both! I am AMERICAN in the state named Georgia. South East above FLORIDA. My brother in law works in Singapore now and for almost 20yrs I think. I want to visit him there to learn SINGAPORE culture. Many Asian countries I wish to visit still. I was humbled to work in PHILIPPINES for my American company (IBM CORP.). HOPE I CAN GET WIFE TO BLOG SOME NEXT SPRING.
