Remote worker in Bali, is it real?

Question

Distant work

How much do you need to earn at least to live in Bali? There is permanent remote work. Want to travel. Who has their own examples maybe in such countries? Share your experience.

Answer 1

The most expensive part is the road.
Accommodation is not that expensive.
A couple of thousand bucks is more than enough. Per month.
Of course, you need to live not in a hotel, but find an ordinary apartment.
Perhaps you can meet a thousand dollars, but these are already risks - you never know what can happen.
There are associations of Russian-speaking freelancers, they rent together - it's cheaper.
Ask Puma Thailand, yes.
As for the romantic - work and travel ...
It won't work if you are not a mega specialist with established clients and good promotion.
You will not work on the beach.
Spend 90% of the time at the computer.
In the conditions there, you definitely need an apartment with air conditioning. And this is not cheaper than in the Russian Federation (we don’t count in Moscow).
And you also need a normal Internet, which in Asia, generally speaking, is ... "Asian", as a rule. It is necessary to look for such an apartment - it is even more expensive.
Deadlines will be tight. Even just to move to another city, settle down to live, find a good Internet - this is the time. During which the customer can either urge you constantly or refuse.
Ask St. Petersburg, for example. And how often do they visit Peterhof or the Tretyakov Gallery?
Or the residents of Gorno-Altaisk - do they often walk in the mountains with a backpack?
;)
Plus of course there is.
But there are also disadvantages.
I would not expect that you will visit the sights often.
Most of the time - work, work, work.

Answer 3

Earnings will not be a problem if you are a normal specialist. Think better about the issues of legalization of stay. As a rule, tourist visas are issued for a maximum of a year, and in order to obtain a full-fledged visa, it is not enough just to earn well and rent a house.
