    Default Business Ideas for future Expats

    I went to my favorite dentist today again, and she wanted to give only one crown but I wanted two. She messed a bit bit my teeth (painless), and finally made a mold and will order the porcelain / titanium (!) crowns in Jakarta. Next week they will be fitted...

    For time in between she made some temporary Acryl crowns, very very white, so for one week I look like a rabbit :oops:

    I told her about the post I made about her on the forum, and googled a bit for Bali Dentists.

    I came across this site:

    http://www.balidentalreferral.com/

    Its just one page, and she asks 100 USD for referrals to a good dentist in Bali, recommending a driver, picking restaurants, villas etc. (Probably gets some commission on the side)

    So here is my free business idea :)
    That's It !!

    Hmmm job ideas for future expats. I am a dental therapists/Hygienist does she have a job for me ha ha? My surgery has just been bought by Chinese and Vietnamese dentists who are interested in comming to Bali to do free dental work next July to the Seririt orphanage I visit Benih Kasih and the surrounding village.

    She doesn't have a job for you, she created her own. Just a one page site.

    Now your job idea would be to help a good dentist, maybe Drg Hilda, to get some clients from Oz. work out their treatment and travel plans.

    Since you are involved in charity, donate some of the income, and trips like the Chinese and Vietnamese dentists would be a good "event" to get some attention.

    Help yourself, Help Bali, and Help people to a cheap dental treatment.

    Yes I was only joking about her giving me a job. I realise you create your own future and your destiny. My dentist is involved in something new on the computers for online dentists doing job swaps as a holiday between countries maybe ahe would like to swap surgerys with us?. I see she is up near where we will be staying the possibilities are endless. I do know I am attracting people into my life who feel the same about my charity work so thats a positive. I will be in Queensland in 3 weeks Bert any good tips of places to visit?.

    Your friend has a most unfortunate surname, Frog. :P Or maybe this word is not used in the same context in American English? I'm not sure.

    Tinkerbelle, if you are coming to North Queensland, make sure to not just visit the tourist town of Cairns (like Bert did!).

    Sure Cairns is beautiful, but Townsville is more interesting I think. From here you can enjoy the coral reef, the beautiful Magnetic Island, a tropical dry tropic savanna, even wet rain forest if you like and maybe even a visit to historical gold rush town of Charters Towers and plenty more options.

    Oh if you are going to the Whitsundays, don't forget to take a trip to White Heaven Beach, with its perfectly white and fine silica sands. Just beautiful!

    Here are some links for you to browse. In any case, I guess you already know where you are going or??

    http://www.queenslandholidays.com.au...gnetic-island/

    http://www.whitsundaytourism.com/

    Anyway, hope your holiday will be a great one.

    BWT, we have perfect weather at the moment!

    Ooops, this is nothing to do with Bali, but hey I am Balinese so I am excused right Bert??

    Hi Tink

    Being a Queenslander for many years I have to disagree with Kadek (only on this matter) that Cairns is far more beautiful than Townsville. I have lived in Cairns on several ocassions and even help build the International Speedways in Cairns and Mareeba in the 80's.

    There has always been a rival between Cairns and Townsville for many years similar to the rival between Queensland and New South Wales in the State of Origin.

    In Cairns do

    Green Island
    Lizard Island
    Port Douglas
    Tablelands Tour
    Kuranda Markets
    Baron Falls
    Crystal Cascades
    Lake Eacham and Barine
    Northern Beaches, Trinity etc
    Daintree
    and many man more

    Maybe spend a week in each but I feel that is not enough time to do either justice.

    Whatever you decide have a great holiday.

    Tina

    Sorry this is not about Bali but felt I had to defend Cairns.
