Fifteen years later I'm still here and I've started to wonder whether the word I used for myself was the right one. In this one I take a walk around Sanur and work through why people who move to Asia get called expats while Indonesians who move to the west get called immigrants, what's really sitting underneath most people's love of Bali and what happens when you hold yourself to the same standard you'd hold anyone else to.
