The Truth is always coming out once.

The tropics. Paradise. Exotic. Asian women. Surfer boys. Love in the tropics. Bali. What great images! These words are some of the top search terms that people have used on the way to accessing my writings, websites, blogs, magazine articles and podcasts about life in Indonesia, Bali, Sumbawa, and Papua. Over the past 19 years of writing about life in Bali, I’ve received thousands of emails asking me about the practicalities of moving here. Some of the letters have been quite specific like, “Can I bring my dogs to Bali?” Some have been general like, “I’d like to move to Bali, please tell me how to go about it.” Some have been vague like, “What’s paradise like? I’m moving there.”I’ve tried to answer all of these questions and queries, but just as I answer one group of letters another group arrives with pretty much the same questions. It’s this situation that’s led me to write this eBook about life in Bali. Why write an eBook about this?There is an incredible amount of information floating around both in print and on the Internet about living in Indonesia, but it’s generally fragmented, and a lot of it is out of date. A popular website about living in Indonesia has information from 2004. Things change quickly in Indonesia these days, and if you’re planning on moving to Bali, it’s best to have the most recent information available. I’ve chosen the ebook format, because it allows me to collect everything in one place, and to publish it while the information is still fresh. Try using a paperback guidebook. They have a lot of uses: they contain a lot of information about culture and background and prices for hotels and transport and food; they give you medical information and photos; you can carry them in your backpack. But, the main problem with the traditional travel guidebook is that they age quickly, and the information is often out of date by the time you purchase the book. My goal here is to cover all the basics (and some more) about life in Indonesia and Bali while keeping things as current as possible. I don’t know how many times I’ve come across agitated tourists who are heatedly arguing with hotel staff about the price of a room. “It says right here in my guidebook that a room costs $10 a night.” The reply is almost always the same. “Yes, but that was published two years ago, our prices have gone up because…” I’ve had a home in Bali since 1989 and have lived on several other islands in addition to Bali. During this time, I’ve built five houses, had four children, and taught in three schools around the country. The information in this book will be based on my experiences over almost two decades of living and working in Indonesia. I’ll be covering the basics of what life is like in Bali on a daily basis – health, communication, finances, culture, legalities, education, food, and much more.Chapter Titles:1. Moving to Asia2. Living in Bali: The Practicalities3. Romance in the Tropics4. Children and Schools5. Housing: Is There an Available Supply of Housing, What are the Costs, What are the Issues?6. Property Issues: What are the Laws Pertaining to Owning Property?7. Visas: What are the Rules for Foreigners Who Want to Live in Bali?8. Bali - The Regions9. Balinese Culture10. Employment11. Bali ResourcesI’m continually amazed by the number of people that show up in Bali and expect to live a life of ease in paradise all based on one or two tourist trips. Daily life in Bali is far different from the tourist experience: a lot better in many ways, but also hectic and trying in others. Once you read this book, you will be ready for the big move to Bali.

The Indonesian archipelago is a land of timeless natural beauty that in the twenty-first century faces unprecedented environmental degradation. It was also the biological laboratory of Alfred Russel Wallace, who, working independently of Charles Darwin, discovered the theory of evolution by natural selection.Wallace, who traveled for eight years in the archipelago, was one of the greatest field naturalists and nature writers of his century. No one was more skilled in observing and describing living things. A prodigious collector, he was the first to bring living birds of paradise to the West. And he was a great thinker, a theorist as formidable as any on earth. This magnificent account of a true explorer sweeps from the time of Wallace's nineteenth-century discoveries in biogeography to the looming biodiversity crisis of the twenty-first century--from the exploration of natural wonders to the exploitation of natural resources. The result is a history that powerfully portrays the intricate connections of human life and natural life.This unique story, published by the University of California Press in cooperation with The Nature Conservancy, is resplendently presented with maps, archival materials, and more than 200 color photographs.A portion of the proceeds from this book will go toward conservation efforts in Indonesia
