Indonesia is a dream for most travelers—and it’s easy to see why. You’re surrounded by waterfalls, beaches, and rice fields, all easily reachable by motorbike. There’s always a nearby yoga studio, a fair-trade organic café, and a community that welcomes you in. It’s a place for healing, breathing, and simply being.

I’ve been to Indonesia three times—and even lived in Bali for months. It’s where I took my yoga teacher training. Where I decided to follow my soul, quit my job, and travel full time.

If there’s a perfect home for me, Indonesia might just be it.

These guides will lead you to the Indonesia I fell in love with—hidden waterfalls, healing retreats, and the quiet moments in between.
