Why people come to us
Relocating or retiring to Bali isn’t just a change of scenery. It’s a complete life shift.
​
Most people struggle with:
​
-
Confusing and constantly changing visa rules
-
Not knowing which areas suit their lifestyle and budget
-
Being overcharged or given “foreigner prices”
-
Uncertainty around health insurance and hospitals
-
Conflicting advice from Facebook groups and YouTube “experts”
-
Fear of uprooting their life for something that might not work
We help you avoid the noise, myths and guesswork.
Instead, you get:
​
-
Clear, realistic information
-
A structured way to explore Bali as an option
-
Support from people who’ve actually lived here long-term
Why
We’re Different
__________________________

There’s a lot of information about Bali out there. Most of it is either:
-
Overly negative (“don’t do it, it’s impossible”)
-
Overly romantic (“live like a king for $1,000 a month”)
-
Or tied to someone trying to sell you something
We’re different because:
-
We’ve actually lived here for three decades, not three months
-
We don’t sell visas, property, timeshares or “investment opportunities”
-
We work for you, not for agents, landlords or developers
-
We tell you what’s realistic, not what’s convenient or profitable
-
We help you avoid expensive and stressful mistakes before you make them
If Bali is right for you, we’ll help you find the path.
If it isn’t, we’ll tell you that too.
WE'RE IN BALI
We are here in Bali – we are based in Bali. We have many Bali connections. We believe the planning and preparations are an important aspect of our service but we also believe that making you feel at home and settling in once in Bali is important and that’s why we are here to reassure and assist you with the smallest queries once you have made the move to Bali.
WE WORK FOR YOU
We work for you. You purchase one of our plans and we will accompany you every step of the way in introducing you to our verified and legitimate contacts, whether personal bankers, real estate agents, or whatever. We have no "vested" interests in the professionals we recommend and we tell you as it is.
We want you to genuinely have a positive experience whilst staying and living in Bali.
WE WORK WITH YOU
We see it as it is, not through glossy websites or photoshopped pictures. We do the research and check out third parties; whether you need us to check the accommodation you are looking for or looking for a recommendation we are here to assist.
WE'RE WITH YOU FOR THE LONG RUN
We believe your trial move is a life-changing and unnerving experience. We are with you all the way from pre-planning, to arriving, to living in Bali to ensure you settle in and are exposed to what you set with us as your goals.
WE ARE EXPAT AND LOCAL TEAM
In any business or operation in Bali we feel it is important to have the active input of a local Balinese who understands “the way things are done”. What foreigners see, is not always right. The expatriate element ensures an appreciation of understanding the foreign client’s quality expectations, service and timescales.
WE PERSONALISE
We recognise everyone as an individual and as such has different requirements and expectations. We provide personal "face to face" consultancy to ensure mutual trust and that your individual needs are met.
