A Balinese Mother Schooled Me in Ubud

Welcome to my solo travel adventure from Dublin to Bali! In this travel vlog, I journey from Dublin to Bali, with stopovers in Doha and Phuket, before finally arriving in Ubud, Bali. Even though I'd been awake for hours and had barely slept, I was too excited to stay inside. Just minutes after learning how to say "good morning" in Indonesian, I greeted a local woman on the street. That simple moment turned into one of the most unforgettable experiences of my trip. She invited me to join her morning walk, introduced me to hidden markets, local vendors, and authentic Balinese culture, and even taught me an important local custom after catching me repeatedly handing over money with my left hand! If you're planning a trip to Bali, curious about Ubud, or love authentic solo travel experiences and meeting locals, this video is for you. 📍 Places featured: Dublin, Ireland Doha, Qatar Phuket, Thailand Ubud, Bali, Indonesia #Bali #Ubud #SoloTravel #BaliTravel #Indonesia #TravelVlog #BaliVlog #UbudMarket #Backpacking #travel 00:00 Intro 00:57 Phuket 08:18 Early Morning in Ubud 18:09 Guitar Shop Journey 21:44 Night in Ubud and Food
