First of all, why Bali (ᬩᬮᬶ)? For starters, there is so much to do! Being in Bali feels like a never-ending adventure. Even if you’re not a sporty person, there are so many different activities that might strike your fancy. Have you ever wanted to learn how to surf, go white water rafting through the jungle, or meditate in a bamboo hut surrounded by rice paddies? Now’s your chance!
One of the other reasons digital nomads find Bali so appealing is its sheer natural beauty. The main island alone boasts an active volcano, numerous hidden waterfalls, lush rice terraces, and breathtaking cliff faces. If that’s not enough, it’s surrounded by several picturesque islands a short boat ride away. Trust me, photos don’t do this place justice!
The Balinese also have a fascinatingly rich spiritual heritage. Any visitor walking around will notice small food and flower offerings in front of shops, houses, hotels, temples, on the beach, and even on crossroads and bridges as part of a daily Balinese Hinduism ritual to show gratitude to the gods. The locals have a gentle, spiritual way of life which can be seen from the way they talk and act, and their religious practices are a big part of what makes the island so magical.
