IMHO, the big difference is the clientele/students you will be working with and teaching and those you will be living with during your internship. They are very different.

Roatan is visited by mostly Americans, Canadians, and a few Europeans. Locals speak Spanish and/or English. The island is small and population is low. The island has a Caribbean feel with American and Latin influences. Many Americans live there year round.

Bali is visited (to my understanding) by mostly Australians, Europeans, and Asians with very little Americans and Canadians. Predominant language is Indonesian, I would guess that English is spoken only at resorts. Bali is an island of 3.5 million people.

so how comfortable are you in those types of situations? which best suites your needs?

And the ownership of SubWay has also changed since this 2006 post.

Bali actually is the only Indonesia's island of its 17,508 where the majority of the people can speak English. That way you will not need to be afraid to get lost or starving , because there will always be somebody there to help you with a widely smiling face who can understand what you are talking about.

Hope this helps

Cheers,
