I'm thinking about coming to Bali for to do some serious writing. With me would be also coming my $1,500.00 I-book Laptop. I've heard that there can be problems with stealing stuff from bags (or bags, themselves!) particularly from the small "bemos" (mini busses) Can anyone speak to this problem (how frequent, how serious?) and alternative overland travel ideas, if necessary. Know where I can get some good travel insurance which would include (partial) reimbursal for value of any items stolen? Grateful for prompt replies!
