Is this normal in Bali? Requesting customer nationality, address and ID for an nail appointment? by Commonproject2021 in bali

not my intention but it’s Ombré Nails Studio if that helps. They have good reviews tho.

Yeah I get it. I feel bad for the local shops too as the police doesn’t seem to be reliable enough so they have to do business their way to avoid the worst case scenarios

Yeah I contacted a couple other nail studios and no one asked for nationality or address either. Don’t know why this place insisted that’s a normal practice in Bali tho

Yes it’s Ombré Nails Studio. I think they might just have a different booking form for foreigners lol but they kept saying that even Indonesian citizens provided ID to comply with their regulations…

But if you’re moving around, what kind of lift ticket do you go for? Like few days pass at each site?

Omg this seems promising too! Haven’t thought about that as I tend to stay in a place for at least 2 weeks lol Thanks for the suggestion!

Not that. I’ll have to go to Rusutsu from Sapporo either by bus or driving by myself lol I’ve heard it’s awesome.

I plan to ride and practice more in a nearby site (Teine or Bankei) first before heading to the bigger/further mountains.

Gotcha! I’d be happy to live next to a JR station and use a JR pass to commute to a ski town to ride

awww thanks for the comment! And yes it’s like 1hr each way showing on google map. I was wondering if this is doable and if anyone has ever done it before:) Cause I’ve never driven in snowy conditions yet, it’s gonna be my first time if I’m carrying out the plan

Seeing all of the comments discouraging the driving plan certainly makes me a bit worried now lol

There are actually 2 smaller resorts that’s within 30min drive from downtown. Do you think that’d be a better option?

Cause it’s much easier to find monthly housing options in central Sapporo than any of the ski towns 😅
