- One of the questions I get asked the most is where is the ideal first backpacking trip. Most people will tell you it's either Central America or South East Asia.
In this video I'll give a complete breakdown of which region is for you, having visited SE Asia in 2023 and Central America in 2022.
the chicken bus is part of the authentic experience in central america, wouldn't say they are dangerous at all
Just my opinion mate, felt very on edge
I totally agree, I loved the chicken busses! 70% of the people on there are also women.
exactly what i needed!! Im the same age as you too lol thinking of SEA or Latin america. Do you mind if I ask you a few questions about backpacking?
Sure go for it :)
@@OlliePotts How long were your SA and SEA trips, did they feel long enough, how long until you may have felt homesick, how long unitl you need to start taking breaks and getting into a routine?
How big of a difference in your experience is going from £40 a day to say, £90 a day? is it a huge change in your experience and comfort or more of a case of just less spending on alcohol and tours+activities?
Thanks for any answers, im really just looking to see how long i need and what budget to take :D
Is it way harder to meet people in Central America than in SEA? Asking bc I've been to SEA and it was so easy to meet ppl since everybody is going out and traveling the same route. Cheers!
It's not hard but it's definitely more difficult than SE Asia IMO. Not something to stress about but you'll likely meet people on activities/trips than at bars like SE Asia
I think SEA is better than central america
South East Asia is nice place for backpacking. Trust me 🥸✌🏻
