ToggleNo Filters, No Bullshit: Hey Bali Unfiltered Exposes the Island’s Hidden Truths – And the World Is Finally Listening
You won’t find this Bali in travel brochures.
No yoga poses at dawn. No villa tours. Just raw, unfiltered slices of island life – the kind whispered in warungs, scribbled on motorbike receipts, or screamed by hungover tourists hunting for a midnight bed.
These are the stories we publish daily in Today in Bali.
Bite-sized. Sharp. Sometimes funny. Sometimes heartbreaking. Always real.
And now? They’re going global.
〰️🌀〰️🌀〰️🌀〰️
🚀 From Warungs to World News
We don’t tailor our stories to flatter foreign readers. We just make them understandable—without losing what makes them raw – so the world sees Bali beyond infinity pools and Instagram sunsets.
Same honest voice. Same gritty details. Only the platform changes.

(Yes, actual media – not just our mom’s WhatsApp groups.)

DISCLAIMER (with a Side of Real Talk)
Let’s be real—we’re not Reuters. Not yet, anyway.
These international media partners? They’re not the BBC. They’re not The New York Times. They’re the underdogs, the scrappy platforms—the kind that might make a journalism snob raise an eyebrow. But you know what?
A small microphone is still a fucking microphone.
Could we sit around dreaming of a CNN byline? Sure. But instead, we’re:
– Publishing in places that’ll actually read our stories
– Building credibility one WTF headline at a time
– Proving that Bali’s untold stories can go global—even if it starts in the digital trenches
Because let’s face it:
- An Instagram influencer sneezing gets covered by Daily Mail
- A TikTok dog with eyebrows gets on BuzzFeed
- So why shouldn’t real stories from real Balinese people get their shot too?
This isn’t about prestige. It’s about reach. It’s about refusing to stay silent while Bali gets reduced to a postcard.
So yeah—we’ll start small.
But small steps still move you forward. And karma? Karma loves a hustler.

🐒 Why This Matters – Hey Bali Unfiltered
Because Bali isn’t just:
- Wellness hashtag
- Digital nomad playground
- Backdrop for influencer photoshoots
It’s also:
- Driver bribing hospitals for patient referrals (cough our investigation cough)
- A warung owner fighting rising rent
- That one monkey who keeps stealing tourist phones (and probably runs a black market)
〰️🌀〰️🌀〰️🌀〰️
🌎 Our Rulebook – Hey Bali Unfiltered
- No sugarcoating – We won’t call a “tourist scam” a “cultural misunderstanding.”
- No virality chasing – Important > Trending.
- No BS – If we write it, we’ve lived it.
〰️🌀〰️🌀〰️🌀〰️
🔥 The Bottom Line
We’re not Bali’s PR team. We’re its translators – turning warung rants, driver confessions, and midnight misadventures into stories that actually matter.
One honest story beats a thousand brochures. Even if that story involves a drunk Russian and a stolen sarong.
