You'll be called "bule"! (white man) :) Hate to say it, but this will influence your Indonesian experience a lot. Always smile. The idea that even when things go bad you won't 'lose face'. Bow a little bit to people (eg. meeting, leaving, thankyous). It's common in most Asian countries, and shows respect. Be tolerant. When some people see a 'bule', their reaction is to practice their English ("Hello-mister-how-are-you!") or somehow get money from you. Sorry to say that, I do have many Indo friends, but you'll see what I mean. Live and learn. If it bothers you, speak in Spanish (and smile). They'll laugh and leave you alone. NEVER use your left hand for important things like giving money or eating. This is the hand you clean your butt with. You may be forgiven because you're 'bule', but being conscious about this is very appreciated. You wash yourself after toilet, don't worry about no paper. This is called 'buat mandi' (have a bath). The 'mandi' is usually next to the toilet. Use the dish/ladle. And don't worry about hot water either, the weather is so hot you won't need it. Eat lots!!! :D You'll find the Indonesians are surprisingly friendly and tolerant, though they love to tease. Enjoy yourself!

I have been to Bali 4 times. Each time I went there I got Bali belly, so take some anti diarrhea medication like Imodium with you and you will also need a rabies injection. I only drank bottled water and ate only cooked food. If you plan to go into jungle areas you must take malaria tablets. It helps to know how to say good morning [ selamat pagi] good afternoon [ selamat sore] Good night [ selamat sayan] Thanks very much [ terimakasi] Balinese slang for "I have no money" is "singlapiz". When bargaining the word for "no" is tidak, the word for good is "bagus". You will often hear people use the words "bali bagus" for good. There are lovely temples to visit and the mountain areas of Ubud are lovely. The people are very kindhearted with a sense of humour.

Be careful in patronising at street stores as your stomach might not be able to take it. Good word to use "Ter-ri-ma-ka-say" means "thank you".

If you travelling aboard,first of all,I think that we must respect the local culture and religion,even the residents. Protect enviroment.

you must know a little about the language that the county you will go！
