Bali Visas Explained: Which Visa Do You Really Need?
In this episode, we sit down with Anya from Legal Legends Indonesia (https://legallegendsindonesia.com) to break down what’s actually going on, without the confusing jargon or outdated advice.
We talk through the main visa options people are using right now, what’s changed in recent years, and why so many people get it wrong. From short stays to moving with kids, working remotely, starting a business or investing in property - we cover the real scenarios our listeners are facing.
We also get into business setup in Bali, including PT PMA structures, and what people need to know before registering a company here. Plus, we touch on something not often talked about - what it’s like navigating visas and logistics if you’re having a baby in Bali.
Anya shares the biggest mistakes she sees, common myths that won’t go away, and the things that used to work in Bali… but don’t anymore.
If you’re planning a move, already here, or just trying to make sense of it all - this episode will save you time, money, and a lot of stress.
Hannah has personally used Legal Legends for both KITAS & PT PMA set-up. You can find more info at:

Luxury Bali: Honeymoons & Milestone Birthdays
This week we’re diving into the Bali most people only see on Pinterest - private villas, cliff-top dinners, yacht days and once-in-a-lifetime celebration moments.
If you had unlimited budget for 4 days in Bali… what would you book first?
We break down why Bali works so well for honeymoons, milestone birthdays, hens & bucks, luxury group trips and even wellness retreats - and the real differences between jungle romance in Ubud, cliff-top icons in Uluwatu, private yachts vs beach clubs, and party weekends vs sober luxury escapes.
We’re also answering the big questions:
- Is Bali still the ultimate hens destination?
- What budget do you actually need in 2026?
And if we were planning our own 40ths… where would we book?
If you’re planning something big in Bali, this is your curated guide.
🎧 Hit play. And if you’re overwhelmed… DM us. We’ll tell you where to actually book.
We’ve partnered with Beam & Bare (https://www.instagram.com/beamandbare.laserbali/?hl=en) — use code BLU30 for 30% off your first laser hair removal treatment. WhatsApp them directly to book. You’re welcome 😉
