so is it already covered? Can I actually travel to Bali only by paying everything with my Bitcoin now?

not everything, see this one .. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=567458.180

oh okay, so we can already buy souvenirs with bitcoin

at least, if there are hotels, restaurants, and souvenirs shops there in Bali that are accepting Bitcoin, I guess it's already enough for me

I think there is some hotels accepting bitcoin,

true, but those five-star hotels are way too expensive though 

I think it's because those who accept bitcoin in bali are mostly expatriates with big businesses, that's why it's expensive

agreed. Local merchants still usually prefer to accept cash directly

I am working on the free services exchange project (see signature)

Hi,

Nice. Yes, this project has had good reception so far. I am happy to work on it and want to continue.

The link is here:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=948359.msg10383498#msg10383498

So there are about three things you can do here. Post a photo and/or request and/or provide free services. We would be happy to get you Bali Bitcoiners on board too. Ok, let's say... Is there anything you Bali Bitcoiners could do for free and post a photo? It doesn't have to be hard or take a long time. Can you post an image of a coconut with a flamingo on top of it or something of the like? You do have a lovely natural environment over there. I do stuff for free too so I am dogfooding the concept. @Bitcoinnuts please post a photo in our thread.

Ah I see... well maybe next time you're going to Bali, you can try spend your bitcoin there. I don't know if you can pay everything with BTC but at least there are some hotels and restaurants there that accept it...

[nutshell26]

awesome! seems like the project is showing good progress  we need more countries to do this kind of project in order for Bitcoin to gain mass acceptance.

yeah well i was just wondering about the merchants. Do you guys go from door-to-door to promote bitcoin to those people or do these merchants come to you for help to accept payment in bitcoin?

[dezoel]

I am not sure about that, beacuse I am not in bali, but java...
