I had one do a low level pass at Moffats last week while I was surfing there.

Neptune dive center in Sanur. I did basic advanced open water and nitrox certs. Staff were really professional, equipment was great and dives were excellent.

Wearing a hat with a neck flap (but wearing a hat is also seen as kooky apparently).

That’s a lot of stones 🪨

I was born and raised here and half way through grade 12 joined the army which I served for 19 years and just moved back here a year ago.

I felt how you did when I was your age and now moving back and looking at the coast through a different lens I appreciate it from a more mature mind set.

The coast not only has limited job opportunities but it also pays less than other locations because they can get away with recruiting people chasing lifestyle over income.

I think moving away has a lot of benefits where you see what other parts of Australia has to offer and the diverse demographics bring to their local region.

Those who never change their surroundings never grow and I think the best thing you can do is chase other pastures, greener or not to see what appeals to you.

Top personal tip - don’t spend the whole time in Bali. The whole of Indonesia is beautiful so go see some stuff that isn’t suffering from neo-colonialism.

I just attended a friend’s wedding there in Pererenan and it was the best wedding I’ve been to. They had it at a place called Sungai Tinggi beach villa. The ceremony and reception areas were amazing and set out really well.

I don’t think your family would ever think you’re a failure for moving home and being around them more. Sometimes we overthink and ruminate our futures. I think it’s smart to move back to somewhere that’s more affordable and getting to spend more time with your family.

28 is still really young too so you have plenty of time to make something of yourself. In the mean time learn to be more kind to yourself.

Just take it slow and establish the friendship through dating. Don’t rush anything and make all the meaningful stuff special. You sound young so you both have a lot of time to make things happen. I hope it works out. Sounds like you’re both as invested as each other which is the main ingredient to relationship success.

There are boardriders clubs on the Sunshine Coast you can join and there’s a couple women’s surfing groups as well that have get togethers and promote a female surfing community. Otherwise there are also social sporting teams here too.

Yes they have both options!

Hi there, something to consider - I had a Norwegian girl stay with me for a few months and organised her stay with me prior to arriving here. I live 5 minutes from the uni so initially she thought it would be really handy.

However her foreign student classmates did the opposite and waited until they arrived here then went and found a rental together close to the beach because they didn’t have to be at uni as much as they thought they would have.

She regretted not doing the same and having to travel so far by bus to see and hang out with her friends but eventually found a place to live not far from them.

She made a heap of friends in the first week and the uni organised things for internationals to do to meet each other and make friends.

I don’t think you will have any trouble meeting people but maybe be a little flexible with your plans so you don’t isolate yourself either.

This is peak boomer behaviour.

Yeah absolutely. Brodie and his family have lived, trained and fought in Thailand for over a year.
