    Not permanent, no. I prefer staying a few months at a time. That way Bali stays special, not routine.

    No, not permanently. Bali is our escape from daily life in Melbourne. We love coming here for holidays, but Australia is still home for us.

    Yes, that’s why we moved here from Melbourne. We want our kids to grow up in a peaceful environment, closer to nature, while experiencing a different culture.

    Not permanently, but I enjoy staying here for long periods. It’s a great base for remote work.

    Sometimes I think about it, because the peace here is very precious for me. But I have my family in France, so I think it is better I come only a few months each year. Permanent would be maybe too difficult.

    I love spending long stretches here, especially during the main surf season. But living permanently? I’m not sure yet. For now, Bali is my favourite place to escape, surf, and recharge.

    I would love to live permanently in Bali one day. For now, I feel a bit too young to take that step, but Sidemen is definitely where I would want to settle in the future.

    Yes, I would love to live permanently in Bali, especially in the Tabanan area. It feels like the perfect place for a relaxed and enjoyable lifestyle. Unfortunately, my personal situation doesn’t allow it at the moment, but I truly hope that within a few years I can make the move and live the Bali dream for real.
