How much money for one year in Asia???
Are we getting personal, Thomas? Your ancestor's behaviour in Europe in 1914-1918 and 1939-1945 wasn't the most pleastant either but you don't see ME mentioning that here in the original debate, now do you? What was wrong with their behaviour then ? There you go, my point exactly. Congratulations. You should be proud. |

How much money for one year in Asia???
Manfred Aigner wrote in message . at...
20$/day (that is $600/month) is still much more than the average income in most of the countries the original poster will visit, so why shouldn't it be possible to live and travel there? As I see it the issue isn't 'is it possible' it's 'is it a good idea'. Most seasoned travelers have had really great experiences on low budgets; but also most seasoned travelers (if they'll admit it) more than once on that low budget trip wished they had a few extra bucks for something, maybe a particular attraction, a ferry ride to a really cool island you heard about, or something like that. The more money you have, the more options you have, plain and simple. This isn't to say you don't have a lot of options when traveling on a low budget; in SE Asia you certainly do. But you have more options when you have more cash reserves. I say budget $20/day, but have at least $50 in funds just in case. John W. |

Now do you, really? And do you see what your own problem is? Could it mayeb be the German superiority complex? |

Mind you, they're not hated or something (they make damn fine cars and tasty sausages) but people sure are aware of the past around here. |
