Yet another interesting video, thank you for sharing whilst on holiday in QLD! Yes things are quite expensive here now but we just have to suck it up……and save where we can for another holiday in Sanur……ideally would be right now to escape this polar blast we are having 🥶 Aldi sea salt chips for us! Also a trip to Bunnings and a sausage sandwich would be welcome! Have a great time…..regards Lynette & Ken

Flushing toilet paper - really? I have never had an issue with that complex observation. I think that is really a bit of a non issue not a toilet tissue mate. Besides how cheap things are in Bali to Australia ( queensland) eg. Hats, shirts and the endless merry go round of retail goodies and the warmth- is there anything that you like Bali for other than that?

Those apartments are pretty good for the money for $240 p/n. There are many hotels on Sanur beachfront that cost as much as $240 p/n that are nowhere near as big or as well appointed. In saying that, there are many in Sanur that are under $50 per night which is unheard of in Australia, unless you want to stay in a donga.

The worst thing about visiting Bali is the “Bali price hangover”. You’re constantly aware in Australia just how eating out has become not just expensive, but seeing how service standards have fallen: reduced business hours, untrained/unhappy staff and business owners claiming they can’t make a decent profit notwithstanding putting their prices up. Only cure for the Bali hangover is of course to go back!

I try not to buy too many snacks or processed food and stick to fresh fruit, veg and minimal meat...occasionally mince or chicken. I always buy eggs and dried legumes for extra protein. Milk is reasonable, although cheese and butter are getting pricey. Yep, the cost of living in Oz has certainly increased since covid. House rental cost is scary.

Hi Richard, interesting you should mention coffee. We're in Sth Aust, just last night on the news (which we rarely watch main stream news) we were told that coffee is about to skyrocket because of poor growing seasons round the world. Cafe owners in Australia state that a coffee is already $1-2 per cup less than they should be but they fear if they put them up any further then nobody will buy anymore. They're talking about the costs possibly doubling. That will just about kill off cafes in Australia altogether. owner say that a co
