Bali feels like a big, friendly mess. Temples, scooters, and little offerings on every doorstep. The vibe changes fast. Canggu is surf and coworking. Ubud is yoga and rice fields. Seminyak has the nightlife. The weather is warm and humid with quick rain in the wet months. Most travellers enjoy the food markets and tiny warungs.
For digital nomads the perks are real. Living costs are low compared to home. You can find cheap meals and nice villas if you want. Internet is solid in cafes and coworking spots. Sometimes the power or Wi Fi drops. Things to do are endless. Surf at dawn. Take a scooter to a waterfall. Join a sunset beach volleyball game in Seminyak. I once read about a pickup game and ended up playing with a developer who traded coding tips for surf lessons.
There is a big nomad community here. Meetups, workshops and new friends are easy to find. For some, this will be amazing. For others, it might feel too busy.
