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.
Any conversation of waterfalls in Bali will eventually turn to the Munduk area. The mountainous terrain and tropical jungles are rife with waterfalls that would rival any others on the island, and within Indonesia itself. Munduk Waterfall, Red Coral, and Labuan Tebo are all names that roll off the tongue, however for some reason Golden Valley Waterfall gets lost in...
Bukit Asah is an amazing headland in East Bali that is often overlooked by visitors to the area. This is probably because of the more popular Virgin Beach, which is situated directly below it. While this is understandable, it is a crime for anyone to miss the glorious views on offer simply because they were not aware it existed. With an outlook that stretches to...
If there is one thing true about the magical island of Bali, it’s that it continues to surprise us. Now, we all knew that there must have been plenty of waterfalls hiding within it’s tropical jungles and rain forests. Little did we know though, exactly how many there actually were, and when it comes to Bali Waterfalls, we just can’t get enough! With...
When it comes to tourism, Lombok has forever played second fiddle to the seductive wiles of its closest neighbor Bali. That may be coming to an end, however, with major facilities upgrades and the recent announcement that the Indonesian Island will play host to the Mandalika MotoGp in 2021. The rise in prominence of Lombok on the world sporting calendar has been, to...
When it comes to Bali Waterfalls, Sekumpul Waterfall is right near the top of everyone’s list. There are plenty of good reasons for this, and rightly so. Sekumpul Waterfall is one of the most famous of the Bali Waterfalls, and arguably one of the most beautiful. But there are plenty of other reasons that this has become a “not to be missed”...
The peaceful seaside village of Pemuteran lies along the North West Coastline of Bali. Only a few hours drive away from the hustle and bustle of the busy south coast of Bali, yet it is only just now beginning to share the spotlight with it’s southern cousins. Pemuteran is a place that features serene beaches, crystal clear waters, award winning reefs and views...
Batu Kursi can be found in the North West of Bali overlooking the glorious village of Pemuteran. Topped by a small temple with a trail that is more a series of concrete steps up the side of the hill, it’s a hike that often escapes any of the most popular lists. But this Bali hike is one that is worth stopping by and checking out if you are in the area. First of...
Gili Putih Sumberkima has become an Instagram and Social Media phenomenon in the past year or two. Known for it’s incredible views, photogenic outlook, and quintessential desert island vibes, it has been the source of an upswing in tourism to North West Bali. So for the chance of catching a glimpse, or even better, visiting the elusive strip of sand yourself...
As I sit here writing this post I am looking out across a lush green valley adorned with Palm trees and tropical rain forest. Originally I came here for the Munduk waterfalls, but to my surprise, I have found there is so much more to the Munduk area, and the little village of Gobleg that I currently call home. The home stay I have found is typical of most you will...
