About

My name is Rachel, I’m 29, originally from Northeast England and I live in Bali with my wonderful husband Made.

I came to Bali as a last stop in Asia on a rtw ticket before I was supposed to travel to Australia, and then New Zealand where I planned to work for a year. It was certainly not my plan to fall in love, get married and stay here forever but I’m glad that’s the way things worked out :)

We live with my husband’s family in a village near Ubud, Made is a bar manager and I try to make money where I can doing internetty stuff (in my past life I worked as an in-house web designer in the UK – not in a hurry to go back to the 9-5 lifestyle as long as I can help it!)

This blog is mainly to keep my family and friends up to date with my life here but anyone is welcome! I hope you enjoy reading about our life in Bali!
