In Reply to: Living in Bali - what do you do ? posted by KSevy on Tuesday, 23. February 2010 at 04:42 Bali Time:
... who you *are*. The great thing about Bali is that it lets you break free of that awful back-home question: "And what do you *do*?" Here, no-one cares, because it doesn't matter. It's about being, not doing.
As a so-called retiree, I have the choice of living a life of sloth and gluttony, or writing blog articles about the joys and absurdities of Bali life, or consulting online, or learning stuff ... or anything I want really. Here, I am free in a way that I never was back in Oz.
Maybe that's why some expats (not all, obviously!) choose to live in Bali.
