Welcome to Bali Veronika

The book tells the story of an emigration driven by exhaustion rather than a desire for adventure. The protagonist leaves Germany after her trust in state, social, and interpersonal structures has broken down. In Bali, she seeks stabilization but is confronted once again with systemic failure, power imbalances, and the diffusion of responsibility. These conditions reactivate earlier experiences stored in the nervous system. The narrative traces this process in a concrete, unspectacular way—through construction sites, electrical systems, relationships, and the gradual loss of stability.
