Highlights_
- → Solo trips to hidden gems
- → Sunrise yoga spots
- → Local warungs & babi guling
- → Safe solo accommodations
My love affair with Bali started with solo trips that quickly became my favorite way to explore. Unlike my earlier travels to Europe and Australia (group adventures) or the Southeast Asia trips to Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, and Vietnam (family vacations), something about Bali just clicked.
After countless solo trips to Bali, I've accumulated hundreds of photos, videos, and saved itineraries. I've learned the best spots for sunrise yoga, discovered hidden warungs that serve incredible babi guling, found safe neighborhoods for solo accommodation, and figured out how to navigate the island's unique rhythm.
What started as personal notes and recommendations to friends evolved into a passion for sharing authentic Bali experiences with other solo travelers who, like me, wanted to explore beyond the typical tourist trail.
WhyCreated()
> The problem: Fragmented travel info
> The solution: One trusted source
During my solo travels, I kept wishing there was a single place where I could find trustworthy information and practical tools for trip planning. I'd spend hours hopping between different websites, reading generic travel blogs, and piecing together information that often felt overwhelming or outdated.
The "Plan My Trip" section was born from this frustration. Instead of spending hours researching flights, accommodation, and activities, I wanted to create a streamlined process where solo travelers could quickly find what they needed.
Wandopia came from brainstorming with a friend—combining "wanderer" (that's me!) with "utopia" (the perfect solo travel experience I'm always chasing). Every tool and guide on this site is built from real experience, not just research.
