bye roommates
so sad
see you in
in 2 months, 3 months?
yeah, bye
alright bye
and then there was me
I've mine but i've got other ones in my bag though
putting it on now?
i mean we can take a photo first
it doesn't even fit your face
you just have to pull it down
do i look okay? ready to go?
you know what my issue is with this mask? when I breathe the hot air goes up and fogs up my glasses
thats your problem, not my problem
Hello Preti, how are you?
Alright, this is it, we're very sad to leave our villa. Our life in bali behind
Alright
so then there's me
just to give you guys an update
yesterday I was just not in the mood to
to vlog at all because there was just such an emotional rollercoaster
I had gone ahead and booked my Singapore flight
with Rhett & Claire to go to South Africa
Yesterday
Yes!
I'm officially leaving, it's official!
how do you feel?
scared
scary times, scary times indeed
and then at the end of the night we found out that I might not be allowed to get into the country
so that was obviously an issue
out of safety i just decided to cancel the flight because it turned out that
possibly only South Africans we're going to be allowed to get in
so i just, the emotions were just going up and down up and down the entire day basically
so here we are now it's Saturday and Rhett and Claire have gone to South Africa now
so now for me right now my plans are
so I'm gonna wait probably till Monday or Tuesday
because things have been just changing daily just back and forth ,back and forth
the next best flight for me is going to be around 28th or 29th of March
which is far away it's like a week, week and a half almost
but I just wanted to give you guys an update video because
there's a few things that have happened and I do not want you guys to make the same mistake that I did
and that Rhett and Claire almost made
so basically here's what you guys need to know when you're flying through this coronavirus issues
and all these travel restrictions and travel visas
what we were about to do was book a low-cost carrier flight
either Jet Star AirAsia to Singapore basically
and then booked an Emirates flight or Singapore flight to South Africa or wherever we're going
but what we forgot to realize is that
when you're booking separate tickets
when you're booking separate tickets you have to go through immigration and pick up your bags
which means you're entering the country at that point
and based on the travel restrictions at the moment
you're going to be put into 14 day quarantine and you're not going to be allowed to get onto your next flight
but if you book one full ticket with all your flights in one ticket
it's going to cost a lot more obviously because you're booking through Emirates, Etihad, Singapore Airlines
whatever airline it may be
when you're going to checkin they give you both your boarding passes depending on your connecting flights
but what we usually do is book
Jetstar or something and then book another one way ticket to south africa or wherever we're going
and thats when you run into the issue of going into immigration
to pick up your bags and then having to come back in with your bags and then re-enter the airport
normally that would be no issue but now with all the travel restrictions
it's a big time issue because you're going to be getting put into quarantine
so for the past 2 weeks I have probably lost quite a bit of money on
flights, cancellations, because of all these flight plans i've had for the past 2 months
i did not think that
basically I've had these plans made for several months ahead of time now and
because of this virus issue I've had to cancel these flights
and it's cost me quiet a bit of money honestly
from my flight to Singapore
to Bangkok
coming back from Bangkok to Bali
and then having to book the flight to South Africa and having to cancel that
and now I'm gonna have to book another flight now to the U.S. so
within these last 3 months it's a
I've had quite a few tickets purchased
and not all of them have been refunded
its a really tough situation to be in because right now in Bali
the visa situation is going back and forth, people are just throwing out information
on all these Facebook groups all these outlets, social media outlets and
it's he says, she says, he says, she says
and you really don't know what's true right now
unless you have a statement from the government saying this is what we're doing
and I'm honestly very disappointed
from
all the government's honestly around the world, Indonesia, U.S., South Africa it's like
it's very frustrating and very stressful
no one is giving concrete answers
and these are, these are the issues that are costing traveller's money at the moment
and if the entire world would honestly just say you know what
screw everybody's visas wherever you are in the world
stay put no matter whether you're a tourist or a citizen in the country
just stay put for the next 30 days
but you know Indonesia it took them probably what 2 weeks to tell everybody
hey you know what stay put, we'll give you emergency stay permits
and they weren't even granted to all the nationalities
and this is what the stress that I've been having to deal with so
I'm just using this as an outlet to basically vent to you guys I'm sorry about that
hopefully some of you are in the better situation that we are
i know there are some people that are in a worse situations and
this is a crisis that we're in and we're all in it together right now
so I hope that we get to the other side pretty soon
so it's gonna be shame having to possibly leave Bali
I'll keep you guys updated over the next couple days
don't know how many more updates ill have based on new information but
hopefully you guys are safe out there
comment below guys let me know where you are in the world right now
what is your situation and you know just let's support each other guys cause its a
it's a very stressful time at the moment
and we're all in the same boat together basically
so thats going to be it from me guys I hope you guys enjoyed today's video
