Our Favorite Memories of Locals

Ep-143

People have lots of reasons that they travel, but for us what makes traveling awesome are the people.

Getting a chance to hang out with the locals usually leads to some of the best moments of our trips. For that reason, we recorded the 16 ways to meet locals over on Jason’s podcast Zero to Travel.

As a sister podcast to that episode, we thought we’d share our favorite moments where spending time with the locals filled our tummies and our hearts, with joy.

How do you meet the locals when you travel? What stories do you have to share?

Is Bali Really That Cheap?

 

Accounts vary dramatically. Is Bali really cheap? Or really expensive?

The truth lies somewhere in the middle. You can visit Bali for cheap and still be comfortable, or if you have a higher budget, you can live like a king.

Today Heather joins me to discuss what we’ve noticed about the average prices of accommodations, food, activities and more in Bali.

Bali can be done in any way you please, but it is true, Bali really can be that cheap.
