To give you an idea how much things cost in Rupiah, a decent homestay can cost as low as Rp. 7,500.- (approx. US$ 3) or a nice, small hotel for around Rp. 25,000 to Rp. 50,000 (approx. US$ 12 to US$ 25). Eating at a local street vendor (warung) may cost as little as Rp. 1,000 (approx. US$ 0.50), with decent restaurants varying from as little as Rp. 1,000 to around Rp. 10,000 for a nice meal (approx. US$ 0.50 to US$ 5). A Balinese decorative fan with hand-painted wayang motif may fetch Rp. 5,000 (approx. US$ 2.50). So, your money goes a long way...
