What Melanie said is very true.
As for food, I didn't think it was too bad, but if you're living tax free then it's not a concern at all. Health care is pretty basic I believe.
PV is great, I just think it would be easy to become isolated. I'm not quite sure why I say that because I loved it. Probably the fact it's an island (I'm all for island living) and/but has little else beyond its boundaries. I just felt like I'd stepped back in time 30-40 years. But I'm sure you'd get used to it pretty quick.

When ppl ask us about schooling for the kids when we return to Bali... I believe the cultural & life experience is much greater than what they could learn in a classroom...!???

Apparently the hospital is up to Australian standards from what i have read but yes, that was a concern. I deal with isolation pretty well as long as I feel safe. And as for going back 30/40 years that is also an attractive concept but with the internet ;)
Still, it's up to DH to get the job... trouble is... if it's too easy you kinda get suspicious LOL

I agree totally Trace... however we've invested a small fortune in our DDs education, upward of 50K and we'd hate her to fall too far behind. So basically we want BOTH for her: life experience of diversity AND a good education.... and of course the same for our boys but we have a few years before we have to worry too much about them that's why the focus on doing the expat thing is now!
