LEARN SOME OF THE LANGUAGE

There are many phrase books that you can pick up to help you translate on your visit to Bali & there are also applications that you can download which will translate from english to balinese. Trying to speak the local language may also entice the locals to be more accommodating although they may laugh at how you pronounce some of the words.
ALWAYS LET PEOPLE KNOW YOUR PLANS
If you are traveling solo then it’s essential that you always let someone know where you are going & what time you are expected to return. You can even arrange with a friend at home to check in with them at a specific time & let them know that everything is okay. With modern smartphones — it’s easy to send a quick message to check in & let people know that you are okay.
BE CAREFUL IN BARS & CLUBS
When you are visiting a bar or a club — always make sure that you do not leave your drink unattended. Not just in Bali but all over the world. There are cases when people will try to slip something into the drinks of unsuspecting people often with bad intentions. It is also critical that you keep your wits about you & although you can have fun — make sure that you are in a fit state to get yourself back to your accommodation safely.
