Bali The Sequel 2019: Next Steps
Hi ladies, here are your next steps for the trip!
Let’s get serious!
Sign the waiver Form
Please read and sign the waiver form linked below, all trip participants must agree to the terms of the trip outlined in the waiver form before attending.
Things to note (I’m going to get very serious for a second):
There will be absolutely no drug usage tolerated on this trip, please note that drug usage in countries like Bali carry very severe sentences.
CRIMINAL PENALTIES: While you are traveling in Indonesia, you are subject to its laws. Foreign laws and legal systems can be vastly different from our own. Persons violating Indonesian laws, even unknowingly, may be arrested, or imprisoned. The Indonesian legal process is very slow, and cases can take months to be resolved. Suspects can be held without charges for up to 80 days, and in some cases longer, during pre-trial investigation.
Penalties for possession or use of, or trafficking in illegal drugs in Indonesia are severe, and convicted offenders can expect long jail sentences and heavy fines. A life sentence or the death penalty can be imposed in cases of drug trafficking. Several foreigners have been sentenced to death in recent years.
Indonesian prisons are harsh and do not meet Western standards.
I don’t want to scare you (maybe just a little) but this is a very serious topic.
Forget about drugs when you are partying in Indonesia as a foreigner you are a prized target for the police and therefore you are more at risk.
Trip terms and conditions can be found here.
Travel Insurance
You are responsible for obtaining your own travel insurance cover. I recommend that you purchase travel insurance before the trip, however, it is not required.
One option is World Nomads. However, it is your responsibility to research travel insurance companies in your location and select an insurer that suits your needs and coverage requirements.
You are solely responsible for the cost of any travel insurance and ensuring that you are adequately insured for the full duration of the Getaway with respect to possible illness, injury, death, property damage, loss of baggage and personal items, cancellation and/or curtailment, and/or any other potential losses, damages, costs, expenses, or liabilities (collectively “Losses”). You will be solely responsible for any Losses related to your failure to procure travel insurance. You are responsible for ensuring that your personal travel insurance covers you for any and all activities that form part of the itinerary of the trip.
