If you're going to do this for a really long time, you may as well travel somewhere that will excite you, and where you can do it four times longer for the same money.
- arethuza 13y agoI'm pretty sure I could live in the Scottish Highlands for $50 per day USD to pay for food and stove fuel.... :-) Access and wild camping are a lot easier in Scotland as well http://www.outdooraccess-scotland.com/ http://www.outdooraccess-scotland.com/
- gbog 13y ago50 USD per day in Malaysia, in country side? Seems like a lot. In China I would go as down as 20$ par day.
- jzwinck 13y ago50 USD per day for two people together. We stayed in towns, as the Malay countryside is not flush with hotels (longest stretch of highway without one: about 50 km). If two people scrimped they could do it for 30 USD (especially toward the north), but it isn't rural China.
- sanoli 13y agoYou have to put in cost of air travel to get there, and all the other extra costs of such a trip, but, otherwise, good point, though the truly adventurous people that I've met (and they don't even bother blogging, and no, I'm not one of them) love to travel in developed countries, because it's safer and they can pretty much get away for free, whereas in the poorer countries, the free stuff is already taken. Wow, that was a long sentence :-)
