    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 років тому +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

      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!

    Some great tips Alex. Adding an example month from past experiences and prices would have been very good in this video as well.

    i just did a video like this a week or so ago. love yours! do you think you could travel cheaper? we seem to notice are monthly spendings around 400$ but we are also traveling as a couple

    • @AlexanderTravelbum
      @AlexanderTravelbum  7 років тому +2

      +Divert Living cheaper is definitely an option. I try to find a happy medium but closer to the budgetty side

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

    Thanks for your tips dude! Great vid, I mean you could almost assume all these things, but it's still great to hear it from an expert haha. :-) Leaving in 4 days! Excited for the upcoming months, I might check out your profile a lil more!

      Absolutely! But I'm gonna check out more when I'm on the road. Kinda enjoying the last days home differently, but I'm pretty sure your content holds so much more great things, as I already saw a bit. Where are you at right now? Still traveling in Europe, right?

    • @AlexanderTravelbum
      @AlexanderTravelbum  6 років тому +1

      It all holds some great stuff! Haha. I think almost each video shows something very interesting I found in a place. Right now in France, have about 20 videos to upload soon all throughout

    You can avoid the toursit price for the taxi, if you use the local taxi app.

    • @AlexanderTravelbum
      @AlexanderTravelbum  6 років тому +1

      Awesome! I didn’t really provide names of my hostels and hotels. I should have kept track. Is that what you mean? For names of hostels or like a how-to about hostels?

    I've used to cycle and tent around Europe. I was able to go around 250 USD a month, but it's thought. I was cooking on my own and I was cycling all the time. Almost all nights were spent in tents, some on Couch Surfing. It's an awesome lifestyle.

    Great video. Appreciate the insights. Most websites I visited suggested it would be around 1050/mo minimum. 1500/mo to do it more comfortably. 500/mo sounds really low, but possible

    I Just got back from a crazy good trip in Southeast Asia where I shot my very first Travel film. Feel free to check it out and be sure to ask me if you wanna know some good destination in Asia!

    Cheapest in Thailand: ride public bus, motorbike, train, subway, rent monthly apartment and cook your own food. You can live like $300 per month.

    • @AlexanderTravelbum
      @AlexanderTravelbum  6 років тому

      Yes, true that is a good way to go if you want to live there a little longer term, and not just for traveling through
