💨 Abstract

After staying in Bali for just 48 hours, fitness influencer Zoe Rae decided to leave for Dubai, criticizing Bali for not meeting her high expectations, particularly those shaped by influencers showcasing the "luxury side." Bali residents and travelers responded defensively, highlighting Bali’s rich culture, food, and history, and criticizing Zoe’s uninformed critique.
