Bali, why do Australians go there?

[ufo_investigations]

I heard on the news another 2 Australians died in Bali. Why do Australians go there? We have better places to holiday at right here at home! 

We have great food, fantastic beaches and many beautiful places to go to so why do Aussies feel the need to go to third world countries when we have everything here? 

We are fortunate to have the best of everything why risk it all in a country with standards far below ours.

If I were given free flights + free cash to go to Bali I would decline! No way would I go there under any circumstances.

Support Australian jobs.

Support our economy.

Spend your money here.

Holiday our wonderful country.

How many more Australians have to die over there before people wake up?

Not necessarily Bali but overseas travel does broaden the mind. Something some people could do with a bit of.

No hotels are rated 6 star.

Were you infering accom in Asia is 1 star?

There is at least one 6* hotel that I know of, it's in Dubai. I think it's cheeky going above the international rating standard but there you go.
I have seen more of Australia than most and I will continue doing so when needs must. I have also been to England, the weather do sent suit me there, one of the reasons we left in the first place and I've been to Thailand and no offence to those who love it, Bali is just as clean without the rats and pedo's.
I don't like beaches either but I love warm weather, shopping and wonderful Balinese food.

I googled and there are some 7 star hotels oseas as well ...for the rich.

My typing error...5 star

[mugssy65]

Oops a correct error! Lol

[twinkles**stars]

BTW 5 star here IMO is not as good as some 5 star overseas hotels

To each his/her own.............

OMG Twink you should see some of the 5* in Nusa Dua, kings, queens, presidents, dictators and movie stars all stay there! I of course have only visited not stayed!
