Hi, I'm Jason Lee, Lonely Planet Author and full time traveler who currently resides in Bali, Indonesia. Thanks for visiting my website!
I've been traveling full time for the past 5 years, specializing in South East Asia and Eastern Europe. I've worked with Lonely Planet on their Guides to Romania & Bulgaria, as well as the Lonely Planet Guide to Indonesia. As a Travel Writer, I enjoy returning to locations I write about, so that my content is constantly up to date and fresh.
I created this life of full time travel out of my passion for exploring other places and cultures. My goal with this blog is to bring you all of the tips, hints and ideas that I can, so that you can enjoy all the wonderful places that I do!
If you have any comments or questions, feel free to post them at the bottom of my articles, and I will be sure to respond.
If you see me out on the road, make sure to say Hi! I love meeting people, and am always happy to chat.
No matter where you are in the world, any conversation about beautiful beaches will, at some point, turn to Australia. This is no surprise, because with over 60,000 kilometers of incredible coastline, Australia is home to some of the best beaches in the world. The question is, though, which are the best beaches in Australia? Now, when it comes to making a list like...
It had been over 2 years since I had been home. That was never the plan when I left Australia to travel the world, but Covid-19 had other plans. 25 months later, the time had come, and I booked the trip that I had been longing for. It was time to go home. Time to visit Australia! Now, when I say “visit Australia”, I don’t mean that I am going there...
When it comes to sunsets, Uluwatu really has you spoilt for choice. The entire Bukit of Southern Bali is covered with amazing places to spend your evenings. Many of them, however, come with a hefty drinks tab and minimum spend. The locals, though, know exactly where to go to see these amazing Bali sunsets for free. Here are the best sunset spots in Uluwatu that the...
Well, what can I say? It’s so nice to be traveling again! Not that I am right now, but the tickets are in my pocket and all I need now is my Covid test. Then I am on my way! We have spent the past few weeks, since my last update around Bali, seeing some of our favorite places, and eating at all of our favorite restaurants. It’s funny how you look forward...
When I first began my Travel Blogging life, I had absolutely no idea what I would need. I researched it, but still, I had no idea. At least, I had a lot less idea than I do now! What you start out with on your journey will grow as you adapt, and evolve as you learn. I still have much to learn, ESPECIALLY about photography, but I know a lot more than I did a few years...
Sydney is the most iconic and famous city in Australia. There are so many things to see and do, that it is almost impossible to list them all in one article. From the sparkling Harbour and magnificent bridge, to the beautiful golden sands of the beaches, there is no end of activities to keep even the most fussy of visitors happy. Then, once you are done with the...
It’s been a while since we left Jogja, and even though a lot has happened, nothing much as happened! Sound confusing? Well, maybe a BIT has happened. Most of the time though, it has just felt like we are marking time back in Bali, waiting for the country to reopen, and flights to begin again. In truth, we have simply been catching up. Our breath, as well as our...
Indonesia is an amazing place for hikers. Many visitors will already know about Mount Batur, or Mount Rinjani as incredible places for trekking. Most of them have no idea, however, that there are SO many other great treks around the country. This is mostly due to lack of publicity, which can be a good or bad thing. Places like Gunung Api Purba, or Mount Sumbing are...
