Bali
Indonesia​​​
This Magical Event Is Free !​
No one is going to make any monetary profit from this event.
But you will have to get there before you can enjoy it!
And, unless you are already living in Bali,
you're going to need a flight.
And, once you arrive, you are probably going to want food and lodging.
But don't worry, we have made this as easy for you as possible.
In fact, if you are from the west or a westernized country,
(besides your flight) you will be very pleasantly surprised with the cost
of the beautiful lodging, and the super affordable and delicious food.
*
Most of our guesthouse offer are just
$19 USD / per night (such as the room pictured below)
Most of them offer a free breakfast as well.​​
Comfortable and Super Affordable Lodging
Or find other lodging in the area that better fits your budget and/or dreams. You can find it all in the area of our retreat campus. We only ask that you make sure you choose something within walking distance of the campus. But, in either case, we are here to help. We know the area very well.

This beautiful entrance is actually to a beautiful hostel that is just $9 per night.

Previously, meals were covered on our trainings and retreats, but in Bali it just doesn't make sense. There are so many places you can go and the budget range is just as vast; although for most westerners the prices you find most anywhere will still seem pretty good. Expect to pay as low as $3 for a good meal on the low end, but if you pay $12 for a meal its probably going to be amazing! Furthermore, many of our lodging suggestions offer free breakfast.
​
If you have any questions, whatsoever, don't hesitate to contact us. There can be a lot involved in traveling to the other side of the world!

Once you contact us we will keep you updated on any other information you will need.

Hope to hear from you soon!
Flight Info
You will have to get your own flight, but a recent check on cheap0air.com (which also offers financing for flight purchases) is currently turning up flights for less than $1400 ~round trip~ from Cincinnati, USA - and much less than that from larger airports like O'hare, Detroit, JFK & Dulles.
​
Passport
If you don't have a passport you will want to start working on that pretty soon as it can take 4 to 6 weeks; and even longer if there are any glitches in the process.
VISA On Arrival
From the USA, as well as a long list of other countries [Check the list here], you do not need a pre-ordered VISA to enter Bali, and should opt for the V.O.A. instead. Currently the VOA only costs $30 and the process is super simple: Exit the airplane, follow the crowd to the VOA line, pay the fee, pass thru immigration and collect your luggage.
​
Currency Exchange
As you head toward the exit of the airport you will pass by several money exchange services. They all pretty much give you the same rate, but only exchange about $100. Once you arrive in Ubud, we can show you many nearby places where you can exchange more, whenever needed, at a much better rate than the exchange services at the airport.
Free Airport Pick Up
We have our own trusted drivers. They will be waiting for you as you exit the airport and holding up a sign with your name. When they drop you off at your room they will not ask you for payment nor a tip. (However, 50k would be a good amount to tip and we encourage you to do so.)
​
Tipping
is not a part of Balinese culture and you will rarely to never be asked for a tip. Nevertheless, we still encourage giving them, but to do so intelligently. For example, almost anytime someone tips 100k (about $6.25) or more it is quite unheard of among anyone who has spent any time in Bali, and so you run the risk of appearing very gullible and easy to be taken advantage of. Taxi Tipping: Although most people usually tip 50k - 100k IDR for the 90 min ride from the airport to Ubud​. 50k (about $3.12) is actually considered a pretty good tip; esp when you consider the whole trip is just 350k to 400k.
