Ubud Remote Work Forum

Hi,

How much should I expect to pay for scooter hire in Ubud?

Thanks,
James

Hello,

Currently living in Chiang Mai and loving it.

I’m trying to figure out where I’ll go once burning season hits in late Feb, as I don’t want to be here then.

I’m definitely considering Bali - but I don’t ride motorbikes, and I don’t really want to learn if I can help it.

Is there anybody who has lived in Ubud and gotten around entirely by foot? If so, what was your experience like?

I’m looking to rent a place for 3 months (or longer) that has relatively fast, reliable Internet.

I know this is Ubud we’re talking about, but I’m not requiring Korea-like speeds. Anything that around 1MBps (= 4 to 8 megabits per second) and upload-speeds of around 100kbps (± megabits per second) will suffice, as long as it’s stable.

Can anyone point me in the right direction and/or offer up any tips?
My plan thus far is to contact airbnb owners directly and ask for rates + a screenshot of their internet speeds.

I’m not on a tight budget, so I’m willing to spend a bit more.

Thanks so much! : )

Would this be considered relatively safe or is it advisable a single woman stick to some other accommodation?

Hi everyone, my wife, Devon, and I made it to Ubud yesterday, and have been hanging out at Hubud a bit today and otherwise wandering around. I’m wondering if anyone would like to meet up? We don’t really know anyone here and would love to make some connections. This is our first nomad stop – we’d love to hear your stories, find out more about what to do here in Bali, and otherwise get to know some new people.

Let’s meet up!

Hi everybody!
I actually started writing a post asking for help in finding a cheap, but cool accommodation in Ubud, Bali (May) and San Francisco (June, July), but then it hit me maybe someone here could be interested in swapping houses?

We are one or two couples (one is still deciding), software developers, and we want to try out digital nomadism. But, accommodation is so expensive!

I have a cute little flat in Zagreb, Croatia, available throughout the year, and my parents have an apartment in Novalja, island Pag (seaside! ) available until 1.6. and after 5.9. If you are interested and have places in Ubud or San Francisco, send me a message, and I’ll send you links to these properties. Fingers crossed!!

What’s the best gyms in Ubud, Bali? Preferrably looking for something with a pool and spa near to it too…
