That was not a really good vacation, was it? Food was expensive and bad, beer was warm and people pathetic and bent, locals as well as foreigners.
Travelling is an eye-opener.
I am, however, sure that life, food and people in your country of origin can be the same as what you describe as your experience in Bali although you have not managed/wanted to see life as it is. Thus you cannot escape reality anywhere. Not even at home.
