And we really didn't even know the basics! We wished we had something simple, friendly, and practical to help us connect more deeply with locals and navigate day-to-day situations with ease.

Why We Made This Balinese Bali Language Guide

When we moved to Bali full-time, we dove into an intense three-week language course to help us settle in and connect with our new community. It was incredibly eye-opening—and honestly, life-changing. We quickly realised that even a few local words go a long way in Bali. The smiles, the appreciation, the easier conversations—it all made our experience so much richer.

So, we took what we learned and turned it into a simple, easy-to-use resource to help other travelers make the most of their time in Bali with a handy Balinese guide.

Be Nothing Like
An invitation to remember who you are beneath everything you were taught.

I'm Clare, and I created Be Nothing Like as a space to explore consciousness, self-discovery and the strange, beautiful experience of being human. Because somewhere along the way, many of us learn who we're supposed to be — what to believe, how to behave, what success looks like, who we're allowed to become. But what if you questioned it all?

Be Nothing Like is an invitation to unlearn before you learn. To become more aware of the patterns, beliefs and identities you've inherited, meet the parts of yourself you've pushed away, become more present, explore energy and consciousness, and ultimately choose how you want to live.

I've created a map for that exploration — from Awareness, Healing and Shadow, through Presence, Energy and Identity & Creation, into Embodiment.

 

It isn't a path you have to follow in order. There is no finish line and no version of you that you need to become.

Take what you need. Explore what calls you. Come back when life takes you somewhere new.

 

Because the deeper you go, the less you're becoming someone else...

and the more you're remembering who you already are.
