shepp 2,285 Posted June 22, 2011 Report Share Posted June 22, 2011 Flights seem to be about £375 one way. What's the best way to travel around Thailand etc? And how much would you budget for this? Butch I would say you could get away with a budget of £200 per week. Meal £2, Beer 80p room or beach hut for two £15. I have been to Thailand, Vietnam, Singapore, Malaysia, Cambodia, Sumatra, China and Hong Kong. I think Thailand is the most fun and mosty amazing was Lake Toba in Sumatra, you can take a ferry across fom Penang in Malaysia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_Toba Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Little Butch 16 Posted June 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2011 Sweet, hopefully I'll be able to do a month on £1500 including flights.. I best get saving! Just checked and can get return flights for £525! Would It be best to book a single and then book another when I'm running low on cash so the date can be flexible or just book the return for a month later? Is there any chance of earning a bit more cash out there? But Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Little Butch 16 Posted June 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2011 The only thing stopping me time wise I money.. So If I could spend longer out there earning money I'd love it! I like to think I'm alright at English but because I was a little tw*t at school, I only got a D and an E In English. Also I'm only 19, would that stop me teaching out there?

But you can buy open tickets little butch , they give you flexabilty in when you come back, and you have peace of mind that your return is allready paid for.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tyla 3,179 Posted June 22, 2011 Report Share Posted June 22, 2011 Have a think about Africa, very cheap to live and buses, although an experience in themselves, cost next to nothing. If your a builder of any sort i've got a house in zanzibar that needs sorting out. Free accomodation in exchange for work? Zanzibar is expensive compared to mainland Africa though Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Little Butch 16 Posted June 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2011 I'm not a builder but have done all sorts of handy work and labouring, what's involved? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
