    Gekko crap....Crap!

    ....fighting the same battle..... But I've observed over the years that the gekkos poop in the same spot. So no furniture was ever placed in that spot. Thus I was never bothered till now after extensions put in and someone decided to put my work table in another spot. The best solution in...

    "It's a wise child that knows its own father" - a clever Greeks once wrote.

    Before 1811 surnames were not a requirement in the Netherlands...... Just a little bit of history.... Some had surnames but many did not. And it was common that surnames changes - ie when the son of a baker (Baker) became a fisherman (Visser).

    VOA Extension

    It is certainly not legal and basically you are not extending your VOA but getting a new VOA - ie you are leaving Indonesia and returning without physically leaving the country. It saves the cost and hassle of flying out of the country.

    That is taking jam karet to another level..... By now the effects of heat, humidity and pollution would have made that rubber crumble so I'd say: Karet rusak!

    Computer help offered and asked for.

    Wow..... are you computer expert? How can I check the internet speed? In Bali I use Telkomsel Flash and on a good day ie no clouds, no wind my modem (that thing you stick in the USB port and uses a SIM card) shows I have 3G and if extremely lucky the light is a nice dark blue color. But it...

    Table manners anyone?

    .... what a helpful thread!!! Now I know where my family and I get the habit of eating so fast!! Generations of bule in Indonesia and you adapt their ways....... I have to add though that when I lived in Munich I worked for an architect (millionaire) and his table manners were not very...

    VOA Extension

    Double... not really if you add the time you save multiplied by what you could be doing instead, then add the expenses for travel, water needed whilst waiting..... Might even be less....!

    Another travel rant about Bali

    Oh now that you say that makes me realize that the "touting" is harmless compared to the SPAM emails, the thousands of fliers and brochures in the mail, and the people who knock on your door selling stuff...... (just had one and had a hard time getting rid of him). Oh and the 100s of those that...

    Another travel rant about Bali

    Hmmmm ..... I don't like this development in Bali either, but the rant was a bit exaggerated in my opinion! The funny thing is that even my Balinese fiance gets hassled in Ubud. It makes me smile when they first try to sell a massage or transport to me with no success and then try it on my...
