Wow, some awesome pictures! Also, did you guys learn any of the languages or was it reasonably easy enough to get around with just the basics? Thanks for the vid<3
ive been considering travelling myself just gotta psych myself up for it.
a quick question how mch time did you spend in each place and how much did you guys spend roughly was it like cheaping it or are yo guys just really well off?
@jakamoo1990 Dunno exactly, but spend around 2-5 days in a place I guess. Can remember how much we spend but we tried to keep it low budget. (Partying is expensive though^^)
let me just say wow ....u guys have inspired me a lot......i m about to do the same thing end of this year backpacking thru all the indian ocean s islands and going to southeast asia...i am scared as i will be by myself and it will be my 1st time (i travel a lot but never done a backpack)but excited also cos i want to escape ...is there any suggestion that u can give me please to calm this stress a lil?or anything that can help me there ...much appreciated ..peace
Thailand: like heaven, love it! Snacks is fantastic either. But almost everything there costs an arm and a leg :(
Laos+Cambodia: nothing especial, such boring countries. to me it's just a waste of damn money.
Vietnam: Hochiminh city is amazing but it's so hot there. Vung tau is great but Phu Quoc island much more better.
Have you ever been in Japan? Enjoy snow in Hokkaidou, seafood in Honshuu, Sun and beaches in Okinawa, ancient building in Kyotou, try every crazy things in Tokyou... yay!!!
Brilliant video. I am doing a similar backpacking tour to yours, although I am going alone. Feeling a little lonely, but this video changes my mind! Now I'm well up for it! :D
great video! im currently trying to plan my trip. would be great if you can give me any tips things you would highly recomend, how to go place to place etc. thanks.
This is the exact plces and time frame me and my friend are going starting August 2012. Video is amazing ans just makes me even more excited! How long did you spend in each country and what timing's would you recommend? Thanks so much!
I enoyed watching your video. My question for you is; is there a way to stay on the Phi Phi beaches for a low price? And do you have any links for me?
@pradasis16 you can stay on Ko Phi Phi for quite a low price, I am not sure if you can stay on "The Beach" speak Maya Bay for long, there is just a company offering one night at the beach that's what I did. Sorry don't have any links just check out hostelworld or similar. Cheers
@vengerov87 I just had two month holiday from university, but I guess it is sufficient time to travel around. If you'd like to experience more and get to know the different cultures better it would be good to have more time.
@xTsyx Did you personally feel like 2 months was enough time to experience the countries and to feel like you were away from home? Would you have traveled on longer if you had the chance? I am planning on going i don't know whether to do 2 months or more..
This might sound reaaaly cheesy. But you guys (in this video) are the perfect example of what living is truly about. Travel, explore, meet, smile, laugh. Sick video mate!
January 2012 im going from bankok to cambodia, vietnam, laos, back to bankok, travelling down through malaysia to singapore, then going to bali indonesia, onto sydney australia, then to fiji and the south pacific islands, back to LA america and back home to the UK..... CANNOT WAIT THINK ABOUT IT EVERYDAY OF MY LIFE!! YOUR VIDEO IS AWESOME!
@stuartwwillis are you travelling over land from thailand to malaysia by train etc? know much do you know about the route i too am going along that route...
@FatherSonAndAlcohol hard to say, I don't know depends on your living standards. You can get away pretty cheap but I spent on average around 20-30 bucks a day I'd guess. Have fun will be awsome!
If you want to party you goto Thailand, You want to shootguns and visit the largest religious building in the world you goto Cambodia, you want to experince the purple haze and some amazing motorbike tours and cheap seafood from the south china sea goto Vietnam, or time travel back 50 years+ and live like a travelling gypsy trekking and chasing the dragon then goto Laos. All place are unique for many more reasons, LOVE SOUTH EAST ASIA . SEE YA FULLMOON 2011 NEW YEAR!!!!! woop woop..............
Thank you for taking the time to answer my questions. Let my countdown (for my two month trip to SEA) begin! I'm going alone so I'm kinda in a "what am I getting myself into" mode right now. Four days to go!
Wow... What part of SEA got a 6? What countries/parts of countries would you have skipped? Where would you have stayed longer? How much of your trip was planned before hand? I'm from Maui and heading to SEA on the 29th for two month. By the way... You take nice photos and video (considering the camera you used). Thanks for the quick response!
@MauiJared I would't skip any country all where pretty nice and I gues every person experiences each country differently. I would have stayed longer in Loas, Vietnam and cambodia :D I spent most of the time in Thailand as it was so beautiful, but the other countries have so much to offer, I wasn't able to dicover a small percentage. I didn't plan much in advance just the vaccinations that's all. I just go somewhere and everything else just happens ;). Thanks!
amazing im hoping to go in june/ july time, how did u get such good footage ? did u have like a £2000 camera? i wasnt planning on taking anything valuable in case it was lost or stolen but would love to be able to take photos like these?
@lloydjoslin as you can see in the description my camera was everything but a real valuable one. I used the Canon IXUS 100. My former point n shoot cam got stolen, so yes you have to take care of your belongings over there.
hi , i want to go backpacking through asia after high school... so please answer my questions! ok, first is it ok to go alone? what if you are a girl? is it expensive? how long did you spend in each country? was it scary? you might not be able to answer but i'm just nervous...
@LinkShouldBeAGirl Yes it is okay to go alone even if you're a girl, since you will meet heaps of backpackers anyway to travel with. It depends on your living standarts you can get a away pretty pretty cheap (expect the flight), but then don't expect any luxury and get used to bugs and geckos ;). I've spend approx. one month in Thailand, 1 week in Laos, 1 week Vietnam, and 1 week Cambodia, but you can easily plan more time for the latter ones I've just had 2 months in total. Wasn't scary at all!
This is amazing, im going in 6 days, for 4 months. Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos and Indonesea. Cannot wait, will post something similar when i return in march !!!
@shellytales I enjoyed all places I've been to but Cambodia and Laos impressed me pretty much by means of the travel feeling, especially to see such a different world and culture. When it comes to beauifull beaches Thailand is on top ;)
Looks great and music fits perfectly! Last summer I travelled through Europe with my friend and my next destination is South East Asia. I don't know when but someday :)
SO inspiring! I am seriously considering going to Thailand and finding work their because this economy. May I ask how you were able to afford the trip? Meaning, did you save up a few hundred first or did you work there? I am desperate to see the world and somehow make a living doing it but am worried I Might be a bit of a "dreamer"

@Summer325130 I did work back home to finance my trip over there. Just spend 2 month over there so there was no need to work (you would have needed a working visa over there anyway I guess). If this is your dream try to live it !! There will be ways.
Thanks for your comments! I can't remember how much it cost all together but you can survive with a budget from 20-40€ a day, depends on your travel comfort (food, accomodation, party!!!,...). The first song btw is "Dem Gone" from Gentleman.
@arabie2006 I've spent a total of 3 months in SE Asia and 6 months in Central & South America (check out my youtube videos on each). Both are awesome but SE Asia is better if you are more a beach and party person. In LatAm you still have plenty of both but it's a more diverse experience I would say.
I'm not sure I'd ever come home.
