Content: Total Expenditures
In 31 days I spent a total of THB29,967, or just about $900 USD! I created a loose budget of $30 per day for my entire trip in Southeast Asia and, without trying too hard, I nailed that number almost exactly. My monthly total, divided by the 31 days I spent in Thailand, works out to less than $30 per day. Not too shabby! Many people spend a lot more than that on a single month’s rent. Which brings me to my next point: it’s a common belief that travel is incredibly expensive, and can cost tens of thousands of dollars. Of course, this depends on location and travel style, but as you can see, traveling in Asia on $1,000 per month is a very real possibility. The numbers I have gathered serve to accurately prove that travel is attainable and, in fact, affordable. If you can learn how to start a travel blog or find live a location independent lifestyle, it can oftentimes be cheaper to travel than it would be to stay at home.
