A New Yorker in Bali

Post new topic

vanessa paris

A native New Yorker, I moved to Bali September 1, 2016 from Paris, France where I had been living and working in real estate for five years.  I took the opportunity to come to work in Bali in the real estate industry.

I also would like to continue practicing my French language skills so I am looking forward to meeting people from France who live in Bali.

I enjoy yoga and creative writing as my current hobbies

Hi Vanessa,

If you want to meet some of the "movers and shakers" in the Ubud area, then come by The Fly Cafe early Wednesday morning, November 9, (opening at 8 AM) to watch the election returns. 

Cheers, Roy

PS...as you might note from my hat...I am also a native Big Apple person!

Hello Roy!

That sounds good.  I live in Seminyak but I love Ubud so that would be really interesting for me.
Vive New York City people!

Hi Vanessa, and welcome to the forums.
Roy's little get together might be a good way of meeting the local Americans, and a bunch of locals that'll get your social life off to a nice start.
Much as I'd far sooner spend some times pulling my toe nails out with a pair of rusty pliers than watch anything to do with politicians, you might enjoy the company in the place.

OK Vanessa, see you there! 

Cheers!
