Back from an amazing backpack trip to Southeast Asia and Australia.

[alipop0305]

saving the money, it ain’t cheap

one of the main reasons that people choose to backpack in south east asia is because the cost of accommodation, food and even transport (once you’re there) is so much cheaper than in places like europe and northern america.

but the fact of it is, if you’re backpacking south east for anything more than two months, you’re going to need to save up. not to mention the cost of the flights to get all the way to the other side of the world (it’s not like you’re just hopping on the eurostar to france.

i went backpacking in my gap year between the end of sixth form and first year of university, but didn’t actually leave the uk until may. the girl i was travelling with and i both planned on doing working through summer and the 3 months at the official start of our year out (september - november), doing a ski season for 5/6 months (december - april) and then backpacking the remainder, with a bit of time at home before starting university.

but as with all big plans like this you have to be prepared for the fact not everything will go to accordingly. i didn’t end up managing to get a job doing a ski season, but my friend did (which i will talk about in another post). i had been working full-time all summer (basically since the first week after finishing school in may) so by the time we went travelling i had been working full time for almost exactly a year.

in comparison, my friend worked a bit before going on the ski season and did a few shifts in the month between getting home from her ski season and flying out to india. yes, she earned money on season, but much of her wages had to go into her accommodation out in the alps (which of course, isn’t cheap, even with the staff prices she’d get).

i’d like to start by saying that we both were able to easily afford the expenses a trip like this comes with, it just meant that i was less worried about how much i was spending each week, and had more left over at the end (which was nice, since i wouldn’t be able to work as much when i went to uni).

but i’ll finally dive into the nitty gritty of the costs! we booked an outline of our travels (to ease our parents worrying) through trailfinders. in retrospect, we didn’t need to do this, but since i was trying to organise all this alone while my friend was on the ski season, it did make it a lot easier and they were super helpful.

the payment we each made to trailfinders was £2,725 each and it included:

flights london, england → delhi, india (via dubai) dehli, india → bangkok, thailand bangkok, thailand → chiang mai, thailand chiang rai, thailand → phuket, thailand (via bangkok) (we had to organise our flights into and out of cambodia separately) hanoi, vietnam → london, england (via dubai)

hotels (for 1 night because of late/early flights, or just so we had somewhere to go when we first arrived) delhi - last night in india, 5am flight the next morning bangkok - first night chiang mai - first night phuket - first night ho chi minh city - first night hanoi - last night of the whole trip, had a 1:30am flight the next night (so was good because we could leave our bags there

transfers to and from the airport bangkok airport → hotel chiang mai airport → hotel phuket airport → hotel ho chi minh airport → hotel hanoi hotel → airport

g adventures tour through the golden triangle (delhi, agra, jaipur) - 6 days (the whole time we were in india pretty much, which is why we did the tour, since we didn’t think we’d have time to see everything we wanted to) - 5 nights accommodation included - 5 meals provided (breakfast) - entry tickets for the tourist attraction - all transport - a local tour guide to show you around and tell you all about the amazing landmarks - costs £459 per person when booking for two travellers more info here: https://www.gadventures.com/trips/golden-triangle-independent-adventure-delhi-agra-jaipur/TAHGTC/?ref=asearch

bamba travel pass through vietnam - all transport through Vietnam (minibuses, overnight buses) - 2 nights of accommodation - 10 meals (2 breakfast, 7 lunch, 1 dinner) - 8 amazing experiences (ranging from street food tours to a 2 day, 1 night cruise through ha long bay!!) - a local tour guide to show you around and tell you all about the amazing landmarks - at the time it was $862/£662 but it seems to have gone up significantly to $1219/£999 so i guess i’m glad we did it when we did haha - the way it worked was you would message them to book the activities or transport 24-48 hours sin advance so you were a bit more free to do what you wanted when you wanted (i.e. stay an extra day somewhere) - this was honestly an amazing thing to do but i wish we had more time to do spread them out more info here: https://bambatravel.com/adventure/Vietnam-Travel-Passes-Backpacking/Vietnam-Circuit-&from-Ho-Chi-Minh-City&-Travel-Pass/35978/162

travel insurance (through trailfinders included in the above total and cost £207 each for the whole trip and had amazing cover as seen below

and it does cover covid related emergencies which many countries still require for entry

of course this is not the way to do it, there is no correct way of planning a trip like this, but it worked for us. maybe it’ll work for you, maybe it won’t.

this doesn’t include expenses whilst out there (such as hostels, food, entrance fees to attraction, other activities we organised while there etc.)

i hope this is able to help someone out there!

thanks for reading,

British lawyer Simone White has become the fifth tourist to have died in a suspected mass poisoning in Laos, south-east Asia.

The UK's Foreign Office confirmed the 28-year-old's death on Thursday, saying: "We are supporting the family of a British woman who has died in Laos, and we are in contact with the local authorities."

It comes after the family of 19-year-old Australian national Bianca Jones confirmed her death earlier on the same day.

Hours earlier, the US State Department told the media that an American man died in the tourist town of Vang Vieng.

Two Danish women, aged 19 and 20, also died last week in Laos, Danish authorities confirmed, declining to share more due to confidentiality concerns.

The deaths remain under police investigation, but news reports and testimonies online from other tourists suggest they may have consumed drinks laced with methanol, a deadly substance often found in bootleg alcohol.

Vang Vieng is a small, riverside town in central Laos and a hub for young Westerners backpacking across Southeast Asia. It's home to the Banana Pancake Trail - a popular backpacking route spanning Thailand, Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia.

Jones's friend Holly Bowles is in hospital on life support, while a British woman is also reportedly in hospital.

New Zealand's foreign ministry told local media on Thursday that one of its citizens was also unwell from suspected methanol poisoning. And the Netherlands' foreign affairs ministry said that a Dutch tourist was sent to the hospital but is in stable condition. It is unclear how many others have fallen ill.

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said the department of foreign affairs had confirmed Jones's death.

"Our first thoughts in this moment are with her family and friends who are grieving a terrible and cruel loss," Albanese said on Thursday afternoon.

"This is every parent's very worst fear and a nightmare that no one should have to endure."

He said he hoped Ms Bowles, who is currently at Bangkok Hospital, would recover well.

The US State Department said it was "closely monitoring" the situation with regards to the American victim, adding that it was up to local authorities to determine the cause of death.

Australian, New Zealand and UK authorities have each warned their citizens to be careful of methanol poisoning when consuming alcohol in Laos.

Nana Backpacker Hostel, where the two Australian women stayed in Vang Vieng, told the BBC that it was closed for police investigation.

The hostel’s manager told the Associated Press that the two women were among more than 100 guests who received free shots of Lao vodka from the hostel. The pair then headed out for the night, he said, adding that no other guests reported health issues.

The manager said he hoped the investigation would clear the hostel’s name, but said they have stopped giving free shots for now.

In a statement to Australian newspaper the Herald Sun, Jones’s family expressed their "deepest gratitude for the overwhelming support, love, and prayers we’ve received from across Australia".

"We kindly ask for privacy as we navigate through our grief and begin to heal," the statement said.

Unlike ethanol, the key component of alcoholic beverages, methanol is toxic to humans. Bootleg liquor producers sometimes add it to their drinks, however, as a cheap way to increase alcohol content.

Earlier this year, at least 57 people in India died after consuming methanol-laced liquor. Similar cases of mass poisoning have also been reported across the world, from the Philippines to Peru. It has hospitalised and even killed dozens in Indonesia over the years, but it has rarely affected tourists.

[thebest-medicine]

how about 19 and 20?

19. Tickle fights, yes or no?

YES YES YES YES YES YES YES let me struggle and maybe win for a bit it’s so thrilling (I still wanna lose at least maybe for a while though lol)

20. If money were not a concern, what would your ideal vacation look like?

Oh man, so I spent 2 years right after college living in China and traveling all over Asia (I worked at an international school as a teacher) and….honestly basically what I did then.

Backpacking, exploring, renting motorbikes and hiking and going through small towns and multi-day hikes… I loved it so much and it was such a lovely experience I miss so much in this post-covid world. I had my first ever paid vacation time when I had this job and I spent 7 weeks during chinese new year hiking, exploring, and biking through southern China, Bali, Singapore, Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam. I would love to do more trips like this in other areas of the world. I don’t think I would care as much about expense as I would length of time? I would love to spend a few months a year exploring a new country or continent each time if money were no issue at all.

Another place I would love to go but that is too expensive right now is to do a small explorer cruise to Antarctica!

Young Susan

Susan took a sip of her coffee and smiled as she thought back to her younger days. Before she was married, she had loved to travel to new places as a single girl, always open to any experience that came her way. She had done it regularly, and it had been one of the most exciting times of her life.

She put her fingers on the keyboard and began to type, reliving those adventures in her mind as she wrote.

I remember the thrill of setting out on a new adventure. The world was wide open, and I was ready to explore it. I would pack a backpack with just a few essentials and hit the road, never quite sure where I would end up.

It wasn't always easy, of course. Traveling alone as a woman could be daunting at times. But I loved the freedom of it all, the feeling of being in charge of my own destiny. I would meet new people, try new foods, and learn about new cultures. It was exhilarating.

One of my favorite trips was a solo journey to Southeast Asia. I had heard about the incredible food, the stunning landscapes, and the friendly people, and I knew I had to see it for myself. I backpacked through Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam, taking in the sights and sounds of each country.

I remember sitting on a beach in Thailand, watching the sunset over the ocean and feeling completely at peace. I had no worries, no deadlines, no one to answer to but myself. It was a feeling of complete liberation.

I also loved traveling within the United States. I would hop on a bus or a train and visit new cities, staying in cheap hostels and meeting people from all over the world. I remember one trip to San Francisco, where I made friends with a group of street performers in the Haight-Ashbury district. We played music together and danced in the streets, and I felt like I was part of something special.

Of course, there were times when I felt lonely or scared. But those moments were few and far between, and the thrill of exploring new places always outweighed the negatives.

As I look back on those days, I realize how important they were to shaping who I am today. I learned to be independent, to take risks, and to embrace the unknown. And while I may not be able to travel as freely as I used to, I still carry that sense of adventure with me wherever I go.

Single mom travels to 17 countries with baby during 3-year paid maternity leave

A single mother is living her best life after deciding to travel the world with her toddler while on a three-year paid maternity leave. Sarah Noack, 26, of Frankfurt, Germany, just recently ended her maternity leave and quit her job. The flight attendant became pregnant with her first child, Luana Noack, in 2021 and was told she could not work for the airline while pregnant. NEWLYWED COUPLE REVEALS BRIEFING OF THEIR UNIQUE DESTINATION WEDDING IN MEXICO: ‘PERFECT DAY’ That meant that Sarah Noack would be placed on maternity leave from then on. She told SWNS, however, that her company would also allow mothers to continue on maternity leave during their breastfeeding journey — which for this mom would be for roughly two more years. “Flight attendants aren’t allowed to work when they are pregnant at the airline I was with, so I was still having a full salary but not working,” she said.”I have been on parental leave since my daughter was born,” she added, as “we have a breastfeeding policy where you get your whole salary while breastfeeding.”‘MOMCATIONS,’ THE SOLO MOM TRAVEL TREND THAT IS PUSHING THE INDUSTRY FOR CHANGESarah Noack decided to take the time off as an opportunity to travel the world with her newborn daughter. “I wanted to have an adventurous life and have a child,” she told SWNS. The single mom took her two-week-old baby to Barcelona, Spain, to start out her traveling adventure. AIRLINE PASSENGER ‘STUCK’ BETWEEN COUPLE WITH BABY GETS ‘HUGE’ RESPONSE ON TWITTERFrom there, baby Luana Noack took her first steps on a beach in Bali and spoke her first words in Indonesia — something her mother said was a memorable experience. Although traveling full-time with a newborn baby likely sounds difficult in theory to many, Sarah Noack said she actually found it to be easier than “having a normal routine in Germany.”She said, “Backpacking hasn’t been difficult with a baby as she was so small, [but] it is getting harder now [that] she is getting bigger and has started running around.”MOM, 88, GOES VIRAL ON TIKTOK FOR TRAVELING 300 MILES TO SEE DAUGHTER AFTER CANCER DIAGNOSISToday, the pair have been to 17 countries in the first two-and-a-half years of the toddler’s life. The mom of one, who is now a freelance social media manager, told SWNS the pair have spent a month in Thailand, two months in Portugal and three weeks in Cambodia, to name a few stops. Sarah Noack said her favorite country to visit was Nepal because of its rich culture. She said, “The country blew me away. It was beautiful [and] so different to every other place I have ever been to.”CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR LIFESTYLE NEWSLETTERShe has also started a podcast discussing her adventure as a full-time traveling mom called “Hot Mum Things.” For more Lifestyle articles, visit www.foxnews/lifestyleWith over 60,000 followers on Instagram, Sarah Noack shares the daily realities of traveling the world with her toddler. Fox News Digital reached out to Sarah Noack for further comment.

Exploring the World on a Budget: Top Tips from Kayfblog

Traveling the world is a dream for many, but the costs can often make it seem unattainable. However, with strategic planning and smart choices, you can explore new destinations without breaking the bank. In this guide, weÕll share essential travel tips for budget travelers, focusing on how to maximize your experiences while minimizing expenses. Welcome to Kayfblog, where we make budget travel accessible for everyone.

Plan Ahead

The first step in budget travel is thorough planning. Start by researching your destination extensively. Look for off-peak travel times when flights and accommodations are cheaper. Use fare comparison websites and set up fare alerts to track and grab the best deals. Kayfblog readers have found that booking flights and accommodations at least two to three months in advance can lead to significant savings.

Be Flexible with Your Travel Dates

Flexibility is key to finding budget-friendly travel options. If you can be flexible with your travel dates, youÕll have a better chance of finding cheaper flights and accommodations. Mid-week flights are often less expensive than weekend ones. Additionally, staying in a destination for longer periods can sometimes reduce overall costs, as long-term rentals are often cheaper per night than short-term stays.

Choose Budget-Friendly Destinations

Not all destinations are created equal when it comes to cost. Some countries and cities are significantly more affordable than others. Southeast Asia, for example, is renowned for its budget travel opportunities. Destinations like Thailand, Vietnam, and Cambodia offer rich cultural experiences at a fraction of the cost of more popular tourist spots in Europe or North America. On Kayfblog, we regularly feature affordable travel destinations to help you plan your next adventure.

Use Public Transportation

Once you arrive at your destination, consider using public transportation instead of taxis or rental cars. Buses, trains, and subways are typically much cheaper and offer a more authentic travel experience. In many cities, you can purchase day passes or multi-day passes that provide unlimited travel on public transport, saving you even more money.

Stay in Budget Accommodations

Accommodation is one of the biggest expenses when traveling, but it doesnÕt have to be. Look for budget-friendly options like hostels, guesthouses, or vacation rentals. Websites like Airbnb and Hostelworld are great resources for finding affordable places to stay. Additionally, consider staying with locals through platforms like Couchsurfing. This not only saves money but also provides a unique cultural exchange experience. On Kayfblog, we often review budget accommodations to help you make informed decisions.

Eat Like a Local

Food is another major travel expense, but itÕs also an area where you can save money without sacrificing enjoyment. Avoid touristy restaurants and seek out local eateries and street food vendors. Not only is the food usually cheaper, but itÕs also more authentic. Many cities have food markets where you can sample a variety of dishes at reasonable prices. On Kayfblog, we highlight local food spots that offer great taste and value.

Take Advantage of Free Attractions

Many destinations offer a range of free or low-cost attractions. Public parks, beaches, museums with free admission days, and walking tours are excellent ways to explore a new place without spending much money. Before you travel, research free activities and attractions in your destination. Kayfblog often features lists of free things to do in various cities around the world.

Travel Light

Packing light can save you money on baggage fees and make it easier to move around. Stick to the essentials and choose versatile clothing that can be layered. Use a carry-on-sized backpack or suitcase to avoid checked baggage fees. On Kayfblog, we provide packing tips and lists to help you travel efficiently.

Use Travel Rewards Programs

Take advantage of travel rewards programs to earn points and miles that can be redeemed for flights, hotel stays, and other travel expenses. Sign up for airline frequent flyer programs, hotel loyalty programs, and travel credit cards that offer rewards. Kayfblog readers have successfully used these programs to cut down on travel costs significantly.

Connect with Other Travelers

Connecting with other travelers can provide valuable tips and insights. Join travel forums, social media groups, and online communities where budget travelers share their experiences and advice. Websites like Reddit, Facebook groups, and specialized travel forums are excellent resources. KayfblogÕs own community of readers frequently shares tips and recommendations that can enhance your travel experience.

Work While You Travel

If youÕre planning an extended trip, consider working while you travel to offset your expenses. Many travelers find short-term jobs, freelance work, or volunteer opportunities that provide free accommodation and meals. Teaching English, working in hostels, and participating in work exchange programs are popular options. Kayfblog features stories of travelers who have successfully worked their way around the world.

Stay Connected with Technology

Use technology to your advantage to find the best deals and stay connected. Download travel apps that help you find cheap flights, accommodations, and local deals.
