Ubud, Bali Indonesia
in Bali!I worked in the IT industry in the San Ferancisco, CA area from about 1972 to 2001. I had my own consulting comapany! I had visited Bali twice (1995 and 1998). However, I was asked in June 2001 "why don't you lease your house in Oakland, CA (USA) and move to Bali?". In September 2001, I did just that. Since arriving here, started a t-shirt business; leased a house near Ubud; started a 'Destination Management Company'; purchased an automobile; went to work as a Director of a 30 man Web Development and Software company in Denpasar; obtained my KITAS, an official 'Temporary Resident' status; obtained my TESOL certificate for teaching English; taught English in Bali and Jakarta, Indonesia and Shanghai, China; visited Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia; planning trips to Vietnam, Cambodia, and the Great Barrier Reef; relaxed; lost weight; and am very happy.
