    you could take plane's in the Philippine's if you want to, but there are a ton of ferry ride's the locals take to hop between islands. It's usually cheaper and more fun. One more thing, a smile in SouthEast Asia is probably one of the best things you could give to a local.

    I pay -3 dollar per night on hostels in Cambodia, 3 dollars in Thailand and Laos, and less than 6 dollars in Vietnam. I spend less than 10 dollars in Bali. Your accommodations in Bali looks so awesome. Amazing, how Bali can be that cheap and yet so fantastic. Most touristic islands in the Philippine don't have cheap hostels.

    Pretty cool to get some insight on how the budget could look like. I was originally planning to backpack New Zealand this February, but it felt more tempting to visit Indonesia as I started to look more into it. NZ is also more similar to my country (Norway), and I'd rather see something completely different when I go backpacking. Your video made it clear that South-Asia is where I want to explore. If 500 - 1000 USD a month is the standard monthly budget, I can almost travel a year with the same budget I had planned for two months in New Zealand!
    Thank you mate, you earned a sub. :)

    • @AlexanderTravelbum
      @AlexanderTravelbum  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      swdoffa thanks for the sub and for watching. Yes, Southeast Asia will be a TON cheaper than NZ. If you're on a budget and have the time to travel longer. I'd say try SÈ Asia first. You can do much much more with your dollar

    Some tips about Bali after our 2 months vacation there... use online online taxis GoJack anf Grab (download both and compare the prices), don't eat at fency restaurants, the food is not much better and the prices are double. If you are not in a hurry don't book villas and hotels in adavance - you can go to hotels and privite villas and bargin..we managed to decrease by 20% the price of 2 hotel rooms. Always bargin when you can do it..basically you can't bargin only at supermarkets and malls. Everywhere else you need to to do your best and never buy whatever you want from the first place..try few places and don't be scared to offer very low prices..you will be surprised that sometimes it really works..no matter if it is fruit to boat tickets

    Good info! I've done a lot of traveling in Asia and some parts of it actually has Uber now. Which is great and very cheap compared to taxi's. Especially taking one from the airport to your hotel or wherever you are staying. Plus, they can't change the price on you. Just a tip for people you will be traveling to Asia or anywhere for that matter. Check if they have it available first.

    I loved the video, today I'm doing an exchange in Ireland and before going back to Brazil I'm going to do a backpacking in Southeast Asia, here in Ireland I work 20 hours a week and to save some money, my idea is to save £ 3000 thousand euros, plus or minus $ 3500 dollars, and try to spend the maximum of months knowing the Asia.

    • @AlexanderTravelbum
      @AlexanderTravelbum  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Glad to hear that, you can definitely travel in Southeast Asia for quite a while with a few thousand dollars. Just be smart, plan ahead, and avoid the expensive things!

    These have been the best tips I have ever received! Subscribed and will be checking out move videos. Also, Agoda is the bomb. I can vouch for it. And be sure to book closer to when you arrive. I had to cancel a trip and my funds were non-refundable. However, not butt hurt over it because I made my employer pay for it since they cancelled my trip. Have never gotten sick from the street food and it is tasty and cheap.

      moi thanks for watching! Yes, all true. Missing the street food now

    Loved your video dude! so true about getting off a bus or a boat and they hound you but if you walk....just walk half a k or so....so much better price. besides...its better to walk after a long bus trip rather than hop off the bus and just jump into a tuk tuk or a cab. I found Penang was really bad for hounding you, they were so bad we actually couldn't even get off the bus....but anyway...a really good video...well done :)

    • @AlexanderTravelbum
      @AlexanderTravelbum  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Food is definitely the best deal in SE Asia, provided one is not too finicky and is adventurous.

  • @hugoingelhammar6163

    It depends with the flights. I booked a flight from Singapore to Taipei for around 50 dollars, and i booked it 6 hours before departure
