forgive my ignorance-what is P4P??? this has certainly been interesting reading!!!
If you Google "p4p acronym" you find over 20 possible meanings. In the context of this thread, the best fit probably is "pay for pleasure".
special rate for Balipod members?
It looks great but most important is ..... do we get a special price?
Heh?
We that have lived with you night and day, around the clock, for years?!!
We that have warmed you on those cold Balinese nights and cooled you when the fever has been hot?
Is it asking too much to put Mamon behind us and say "Fechit, Balipod members ..... Half price! Cause I love em all!!"
Or will it be "business as usual"?
Ball's in your court there...:icon_biggrin:

You do make me laugh sometimes, Markit and I think half price is a bit rich (!) but ok, I'll offer a 20% discount for Balipod members, as an opening special.
In the bargaining spirit of Indonesia I'd like to thank you for the miserable %20 rebate offered and, although I'm sure that must have been a typo, ask if that included airport pick up?:icon_e_smile:
Hi WellRed,
I guess people don't come to Bali to find working girls.. there are more famous place in Asia for that. But I understand where you coming from. There are a few blogs where you can find all you need for this kind of trade.
In a nice bar with view on the beach on Seminyak a Heineken bottle will cost you 45K.. that would be 3 euros. Nice view+posh bar + seminyak probably means it's the most expensive in bali. Bintang, local beer will be 2 euros.
Nice Nasi Goreng in a local warung (nice one ) will cost you less that 3 euros.
For top class bars liquors will be around 6 euros.
Converting from Thai bath your budget is 150 to 200 euros... that's a lot. With that budget you can go to a top top restaurant, get a massage, have more than a few drinks and still have some spare.
You can get a car with a driver. It will cost you around 25 euros for the whole day, you can visit all the temples etc.. and the driver can give you advice on where to go at night, what to pay to get a drink and possibly some company.
I hate pattaya (only prostitutes, army guys and old men.. it's dirty, twice more expensive than Bangkok...).. been there once, never seen the point to return.
There are girls available in Bali like everywhere else, but I guess the style is less agressive than Thailand. If you are alone, taking your driver along can save you some embarassment and help you to get translation if needed (this works when you visit temples, bars or night bars). Not all girls come with a price tag. And you can find company with local or other fellow visitors.
From what I heard Sanur is not the most happening place. Biggest parties are in Kuta and Seminyak. But Kuta is the least Balinese of all, with all those bogans wearing their Bintang wife beaters... if they were any t-shirt at all... I find the food crap there... it's nothing like Bali at all... obviously with all this crowd on demand, come offers from working girls.
But for me the best of Bali is to sink in the atmosphere, relax, do massage, get lost in the small roads in the middle of paddy fields, eat well and practice sports ...

Your place looks great, have noted for future reference; one comment though, those floating frangapani's get a tad annoying focl!! :icon_razz:
haha this made me laugh.. Isnt goin g on a holiday about having sex with your partner or randoms?
I would never go for the randoms myself - but that seems to be what most travellers do..
And Scout - if you hate this attiutude so much - you probably shouldnt be living in a tourist area, it sounds like you cant handle it anyway.. Or maybe you are just bashing away on here because you have no back bone and would never do it in person..
Anyway - I got a laugh out of the anger in this so cheers..
Oh and Im australian too and I although Im laid back and dont mind what others do - I dont get out of control either.. So that was just a racist comment by someone who was trying to talk from her high horse.. Bit hypocrytical dont you think..
That is all..
