I'm thinking of trying the digital nomad life in 2024 and was wondering what are some safe countries for women with a cost of living of around 1,000 USD or 1,500 USD?

The countries on my list for now are: Taiwan, Malaysia, Bali, and Thailand. However, I am open to other countries.

Thank you all!

You mean Indonesia, not Bali. Bali is only one island in an archipelago of thousands of islands including Java, Sumatra, Sulawesi, Lokbok, Borneo Sumba, etc. But as in the comment about Vietnam, public transport and other infrastrure is not the best.

Or maybe she meant Bali and not some random island 🤷🏻‍♂️

Most people are attracted to Bali, not Indonesia in general

She writes “countries: …Bali.”

The person you replied to is correct, Bali is not a country.

She’s not going to be able to live in Bali on 1000 a month. It is not at all comparable price-wise to the rest of SEA due to its popularity

Yes she can. Can get a guest house for $300-400, a motorbike rental for $80, eat at cheap warungs for $1-2 a dish. This doable even in Canggu.
