Home » 25. Bali with kids: Why we go back (and what we’d change next time)

This week, I’m sharing all the details from our most recent family holiday to Bali – the highs, the lows, and everything in between. From hotel choice and flights to food, service, kids’ activities, and even avoiding Bali belly, I break down exactly what worked, what didn’t, and what I’d do differently next time.
