Pada tahun lalu, gue sempat menulis alasan kenapa gue memilih Jeju dibandingkan kota besar lainnya di Korea sebagai rumah ke dua 😁 cuma pada post tersebut, gue nggak menjelaskan panjang lebar apalagi sampai memberi perbandingan antara Bali, Indonesia dan Jeju, Korea 😂 hehehe. So, pada post kali ini, gue mau bercerita lebih detail, sekaligus memberikan gambaran mengenai dua pulau yang memiliki banyak perbedaan namun nggak sedikit pula kesamaannya, dan berhasil membuat gue serta si kesayangan jatuh cinta 😍
Jadi, buat yang pernah baca post lama gue, pasti tau kalau setiap kali gue menulis cerita perjalanan, ceritanya nggak jauh dari kegiatan gue keliling kota 😂 dan teman-teman mungkin akan jarang menemukan gue yalan-yalan ke alam setiap kali gue pergi ke suatu negara kecuali negara tersebut terkenal kaya akan alam seperti New Zealand atau Iceland misalnya 🙈 dan, kecintaan gue pada pemandangan kota ini berbanding terbalik dengan keinginan gue untuk hidup di desa 😁 while gue lebih suka yalan-yalan melihat kota di seluruh dunia, tapi untuk urusan tempat tinggal, dari dulu gue lebih suka apabila diberi (atau punya) kesempatan hidup di pedesaan 😍
Cumaaaaa... permasalahannya, untuk bisa hidup di desa, atau let say pulau yang terpisah dari kota metropolitan, gue dan si kesayangan harus settle down dari segi finansial karena tinggal di pulau itu nggak bisa expect penghasilan besar (that's why perlu buka usaha). Means, gue dan si kesayangan harus punya fondasi jelas, dari segi finansial dan future plans 🙈 gue pribadi sudah lama settle down di Bali and doing well on my own, tapiii si kesayangan selama ini hidup di kota besar, jadi untuk akhirnya membuat dia mau mencicipi kehidupan di pulau itu nggak semudah membalik telapak tangan 😆
Alhasil gue dan si kesayangan butuh proses adaptasi panjang untuk akhirnya bisa menjalani hidup seperti sekarang, termasuk salah satu proses adaptasinya adalah ketika gue mencoba untuk hidup di Seoul selama satu bulan yang membuat gue menyerah kalah 😂 seriously, I was exhausted. Gue merasa nggak ada tempat untuk 'kabur' ketika lelah, bahkan sampai ingin terbang ke Bali detik itu juga hahahaha ~ karena di Bali biasanya saat pusing dengan berbagi urusan, gue bisa duduk melihat langit atau pergi ke pantai yang jaraknya nggak begitu jauh dari rumah, while in Seoul, ujung-ujungnya paling pergi ke taman depan apartment atau jalan ke shopmall (meski gue suka shopmall, bosan kalau harus terus-terusan ke sana) 🙈 hahahaha.
Eniho, back to topic, kali ini gue mau bahas soal perbedaan apa saja yang gue rasakan antara hidup di Bali, Indonesia dan Jeju, Korea 😍 perbedaan-perbedaan ini yang membuat gue selalu merindukan ke duanya 🤪 saat lagi di Bali bisa rindu Jeju, and vice versa 😂
ASISTEN
Perbedaan paling mendasar sudah pasti nggak jauh dari keberadaan mba asisten rumah tangga yang sedikit banyak menjadi alasan gue merindukan Bali setiap kali sedang di Jeju (atau di mana gue berada) 😆 hehehe. Di Bali, berkat mba asisten, hidup gue jauh lebih mudah, karena segala sesuatu tersedia dan mba asisten sudah paham apa-apa saja kebutuhan gue, even gue nggak perlu pusing soal makanan karena mba asisten jago masak 🙈 ntapppph!
Sedangkan di Jeju, gue harus masak, karena kalau beli makan setiap hari bisa bangkrut yang ada hahahaha, mana lidah gue ini lidah tulen Indonesia, jadi lebih suka makanan Indonesia ketimbang makanan Korea 😂✌ sekali dua kali sih nggak apa-apa, tapi kalau setiap hari, yudadah. Makanya, gue nggak ada pilihan selain harus masak sendiri makanan yang mau gue makan, cencu dengan bantuan bumbu siap saji dari Indonesia 🤭 thank you, Indofood dan mantemannyah!

Last year, I had written the reasons why I chose Jeju over other major cities in Korea as my second home 😁 however in that post, I didn't explain much, let alone give a comparison between Bali, Indonesia and Jeju, Korea 😂 hehe. So, in this post, I want to tell you in detail, and at the same time, I want to give an overview about these islands that have many differences but also have many common things, and succeeded in making me and my beloved man fall in love with it 😍
Anyway, for those who have read my posts, surely know that every time I write a trip story, the story is definitely related to my activities around the city 😂 and you may find it very rare to see me going into nature every time I go to other countries unless the country is well known for its rich nature such as New Zealand, etc 🙈 and, I could say that my love for city view is actually opposite to my desire to live in countryside (island) ~ while I prefer to see cities around the world, for a matter of residence, I love to live in countryside (island) 😍
But the problem is... to be able to live in a countryside, or let say an island separated from a metropolitan city, me and my man have to settle down financially because when living on the island, we can't expect big income 🤭✌ means, me and my man should have a clear foundation, in financially and future plans 😂 hehehehe. I personally have settled down in Bali and doing well on my own, but my man has been living in a big city for years, so to make him want to try living on the island is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand 😆
As a result, we need a long process of adaptation to finally be able to live our life like now, and one of the adaptation processes is when I tried to live in Seoul for a month which made me almost give up 😂 seriously, I was exhausted. I feel like there was no place to 'run away' when I got tired, even at that time, I wanna fly to Bali right away 🤪 because in Bali, when I got tired with my business, I can sit looking at the sky or go to the beach near home, while in Seoul, I didn't have much choices beside go to park near apartment or walk to shopmall (I like shopmall, but I will be bored if I keep going there, right) 🙈
Anyhow, back to topic, this time I want to discuss about what kind of differences that I feel between living in Bali, Indonesia and Jeju, Korea 😍 these differences make me always miss both of them 🤪
ASSISTANT
The most basic difference is certainly related to the existence of my housekeeper who is more or less became a reason I miss Bali every time I'm in Jeju 😆 in Bali, thanks to my housekeeper, my life is much easier, because everything is available and she understands what my needs, plus no more worry about food because she is a good chef 🙈
Whereas in Jeju, I have to cook, because if I buy food every day, I can go bankrupt 🤣 and my tongue is 100% an Indonesian tongue, so I prefer Indonesian food over Korean food 😂 pssst, once or twice eat Korean food is okay, but not every day 😆 so, I have no choice but to cook Indonesian food myself, obviously with the help of ready-made spices from Indonesia 🤭 thank you, Indofood and friends!

| Groceries activity while in Jeju Island 😁 |
Read: Yay, It's Groceries Time!
Beside that, nggak adanya mba asisten saat gue stay di Jeju membuat gue harus bersih-bersih rumah 😅 yang biasanya kalau di Bali nggak pegang sapu, pel, mesin cuci, rice cooker, endeblablabla ~ di Jeju gue harus pegang semua 🥴😂 untung di Korea kulturnya pakai robot-robotan, jadi urusan bersih-bersih masih bisa sedikit banyak dibantu robot macam vacum cleaner, dishwasher, dan lain sebagainya. Paling tugas gue hanya bagian masukkan cucian ke laundry machine, masak, lap debu di meja, dan bersihkan tempat tidur saja 😆 -- Bali, WIN 💕
WIFI
Duuuuh, kekuatan wifi Korea ini memang parahhhhh kencangnya 😍 nggak heran kalau Korea dikenal sebagai negara dengan wifi paling cepat di dunia 😂 gue yang berpikir kalau wifi di rumah Bali sudah sangat cepat, ternyata jadi terasa lambat kalau dibandingkan dengan wifi rumah Jeju hahaha 😆 dan perkara wifi ini sering sekali membuat gue rindu Jeju ketika sedang di Bali, sebab gue nggak perlu pusing sama drama wifi yang kadang lemot, atau sering mati, dan membuat esmosi jiwaaaa apalagi ketika harus upload pekerjaan ehhh di tengah jalan stop mendadak. Pusing, nggak? 😪 -- Jeju, WIN 💕
DELIVERY
Kalau soal delivery makanan, rasanya nggak ada yang bisa kalahkan sistem delivery makanan di Indonesia, all hail GOJEK dengan segala kemudahannya 🤣 si kesayangan bilang, sistem delivery makanan di Indonesia keren padahal di Korea ada sistem delivery makanan juga tapi masih bagus GOJEK ke mana-mana. Sebab di Korea, kebanyakan restoran pakai personal delivery, alias hire pegawai masing-masing kalau mau buka delivery service, sedangkan di Indonesia, tinggal pakai GOJEK driver, kelar masalah! Mana pilihan menunya banyak 😆
However, berbeda dengan urusan delivery makanan, delivery barang (ekspedisi) di Korea terkenal cepat 😍 terlalu cepatnya, gue pernah order barang siang, dan dua jam kemudian sudah tiba, padahal beda kota. Terus hampir semua sampai H+1 setelah pengiriman, termasuk saat melalukan pengiriman ke Jeju, dan pulau-pulau lainnya 😁 jadi nggak perlu tunggu 5 hari kerja seperti pengalaman gue selama ini kalau sedang menunggu pengiriman ke Bali, though sometimes gue pakai paket kilat, jarang ada yang bisa sampai H+1, paling minimal H+2 dan bahkan ada yang H+3 kalau lagi sial 🤪 -- Both, DRAW 💕
BENSIN
Harga bensin yang berbeda ini sangat menohok buat gue hahahaha 🤣✌ karena di Jeju, untuk harga bensinnya seliter bisa IDR 19.000 - 20.000 sedangkan di Bali setengahnya 🙈 itupun sudah bisa dapat bensin kualitas bagus such as Pertalite atau Pertamax 😁👌 so, bisa dibilang, setiap kali isi bensin di Jeju, hati gue sakit rasanya. Wk. Yang biasanya di Bali IDR 300.000 dapat full tank, ini di Jeju paling cuma dapat half tank 😅 itu juga alasan gue paling malas kalau diajak isi bensin, karena baper lihat harganya 🤪 -- Bali, WIN 💕
SENYUM
Merupakan satu hal sederhana yang gue rindukan dari Bali, di mana siapapun akan senyum ketika saling bertukar sapa dan tatap muka 😁 kalau ke supermarket, pasti dapat senyum dari petugas kasirnya, mau makan di restoran juga dapat senyum dari pelayannya, dan saat masuk ke toko, akan dapat senyum dari SPG-nya 🙈 pokoknya, hidup di Bali pada khususnya dan Indonesia pada umumnya ituuu sangat membahagiakan karena orangnya terkenal ramah-ramah 😍
Berbeda dari Bali, di Jeju, gue jarang lihat ada yang tersenyum 😂🙏 memang basic-nya orang Korea cenderung kaku, jadi yang ada kalau ke supermarket gue berasa diburu-buru karena kasirnya kalau bicara secepat kilat. Belum lagi kalau makan di restoran, pelayannya pun nggak ada yang senyum, biasanya hanya menerima order terus pergi ke belakang 😅 nggak heran hal sederhana ini membuat gue rindu sapaan mas dan mba Giordiano setiap kali gue ke mall, "Giordano-nya kakak." dengan senyuman dua gigi kelincinya 😆 -- Bali, WIN 💕
ALAM
Hmmm, bicara soal alam, gue lebih suka alam Jeju sejujurnya 🤭😍 karena di Bali, bisa dibilang, gue jarang jalan-jalan ke alam, sekalinya ke pantai itu bisa dihitung jari kalau sedang betul-betul jenuh sama kegiatan 😂 sudah begitu, nggak banyak hutan di Bali yang bisa gue kunjungi 😅 mana hutan yang gue suka seperti Bali Botanic Garden, lokasinya di Bedugul which is dua jam perjalanan (yang ada gue lelah duluan) hahahaha 🤪 paling, kalau sudah sangat sangat bosan, gue pergi ke Bali Safari Park tapi karena harus bayar ratusan ribu untuk tiket masuknya jadi nggak bisa sering-sering ke sana 🙈

Beside that, the absence of my housekeeper in Jeju makes me have to clean the house 🙈 I don't even touch the broom, mop, washing machine, rice cooker, endeblablabla in Bali ~ but in Jeju I have to do everything 😂 luckily, Korea has culture in using robots, so cleaning matters can get helped by robots like vacuum cleaner, dishwasher, and so on. In the end, my job is putting laundry, cooking, wiping dust on the table, and cleaning the bed 😆 -- Bali, WIN 💕
WIFI
Wow, Korea's wifi strength is really crazeyyyy 😍 no wonder Korea is known as the country with the fastest wifi in the world 😂 I thought my wifi at Bali home was very fast, but it turned out, my Bali home's wifi too slow compared to Jeju home's wifi hahahaha 😆 and this wifi thingy makes me miss Jeju when I'm in Bali, because I don't need to feel bothered by wifi drama which sometimes slow, or often cut, that it makes me annoyed especially when I have to upload work, and in the middle of process, the wifi stop. Suck, no? 😪 -- Jeju, WIN 💕
DELIVERY
When it comes to food delivery, it seems no one can beat Indonesian food delivery system, all hail GOJEK with all its conveniences 🤣 my man said, Indonesian food delivery system is great 😍 though Korea also has food delivery system but GOJEK is more than good. Because in Korea, most restaurants using personal delivery (hire employee) if they wanna open delivery service, while in Indonesia, just use GOJEK drivers, problem solved! The food choices also much 🙈
However, in contrast to food delivery, delivery of goods (expeditions) in Korea is known to be fast 😍 I have ordered goods by day, and two hours later it has arrived, even though the city is different. And most delivery arrive H+1 after sending, including when sending delivery to Jeju, and other islands 😁 so I don't need to wait 5 working days just like my experience when waiting delivery in Bali, though sometimes I use express, it still rare to get the package H+1 😂 at least H+2 and some even H + 3 if unlucky 🤪 -- Both, DRAW 💕
FUEL
The different price of gasoline is striking me hahahaha 🤣✌ because in Jeju, for a liter of gasoline prices can be IDR 19,000 - 20,000 while in Bali only half of that 🙈 and with half price, I can get good quality gasoline such as Pertalite / Pertamax 😁 so, I could say whenever I have to put gasoline in Jeju, my heart hurts. LOL. Usually in Bali, IDR 300,000 can get 'full tank', but in Jeju, I only get 'half tank' 😅 that's also the reason why I always lazy when I have to fill up the gasoline, because I don't wanna see the price 🤪 -- Bali, WIN 💕
SMILE
It's one simple thing that I miss from Bali, where anyone smile when exchanging greetings 😁 if I go to supermarket, I will definitely get a smile from the cashier, and when I want to eat in a restaurant, I also get a smile from the waiter, and when I enter the shop, I will get a smile from the sales 🙈 and, living in Bali in particular and Indonesia in general makes me happy because the people are being friendly 😍
Different from Bali, in Jeju, I rarely see anyone smiling 😂🙏 Korean tend to be stiff, so when I go to supermarket, I feel like get rushed because the cashier talking at lightning speed. Not to mention if I eat at a restaurant, the waiter doesn't smile, usually just taking orders and go to the back 😅 no wonder this simple thing makes me miss the greeting from Bali people with a smile 😆 -- Bali, WIN 💕
NATURE
Hmmm, speaking of nature, I prefer Jeju's nature to be honest 🤭😍 because in Bali, I rarely travel to nature spot, hehe. Sometimes I went to the beach but I did it only when I was really tired with activities 😂 and frankly speaking, not much forests in Bali that I could visit 😅 even the forest that I like, Bali Botanic Garden location is in Bedugul which a two hour drive (I might feel tired once I arrive) hahahaha 🤪 so when I feel bored, I go to Bali Safari Park but because I've to pay hundreds of thousands for the entrance ticket, I can't go often 🙈

Nah, kalau di Jeju, setiap kali jenuh, gue bisa ke hutan terdekat (gratis pula), atau ke bukit untuk sekedar lihat pemandangan dari atas 😍 gue juga sering ke bibir pantai atau sekedar jalan kaki di Olle Track 😬✌ dan saat bosan, gue bisa ke Father's Garden untuk petik jeruk sendiri buat dibawa pulang 😂 pokoknya, Jeju ini surga untuk gue yang suka hidup dekat alam karena banyaaakkkk banget pilihan yang bisa dinikmati, dan jaraknya mudah dijangkau dari mana-mana 😆 selain itu, tingkat kebersihan alamnya pun menurut gue masih lebih terjaga dan terawat (semoga Bali bisa!) 😁 -- Jeju, WIN 💕
Well, masih ada banyak lagi perbedaan yang ada tapi beberapa point di atas sudah cukup mewakilkan hal-hal general yang gue rasakan 😬 dan walau sangat berbeda, sebenarnya ada banyak kesamaan antara dua pulau yang gue cinta 🙈 jadi, instead of merasa kesal dengan perbedaan yang ada, gue memilih untuk menikmati dan beradaptasi dengan segala perbedaannya 🤭 hehehe. Sekarang gantian gue mau tanya, kalau teman-teman dikasih kesempatan tinggal di satu negara (selain Indonesia, yah) kira-kira akan pilih negara mana? 😍

Meanwhile, in Jeju, every time I get bored, I can go to forest (free), or to the hill to just see the view from the top 😍 I also often go to the beach or just walk on Olle Track 😬✌ and when I get bored, I can go to Father's Garden to pick oranges and bring it home 😂 in sumarize, Jeju is a paradise for us who likes to live near nature because there are many choices that we could enjoy, plus the distance is accessible from everywhere 😆 and the level of cleanliness is in my opinion also more better and well maintained (wish Bali can!) 😁 -- Jeju, WIN 💕
Overall, there are many more differences, but some of points above are enough to represent the general things that I feel 😬 and though they are very different, there are also a lot of similarities between the two islands 🙈 so, instead of feeling upset about the differences, I choose to enjoy and adapt to all the matters 🤭 hehehehehe. Now I want to ask you guys, if you are given an opportunity to live in other country (other than yours) which country will you choose? 😍
