I hope to travel from Japan, where I'm doing a study abroad program, to Bali for spring break. There is a (good) chance that I will be traveling alone, and in light of the travel advisory that the US State Department has posted for Indonesia as a whole, including Bali, I would like to know whether you think that it is reasonably safe to visit Bali. Even if my friend goes with me, we will still be two white females (American and Finnish) traveling on our own.
Any ideas about how safe this is, or other travel tips?
