I'm 25, male, from the UK and a qualified Biomedical Engineer.
I've got 6 months travelling South East Asia. Starting in Thailand and then following the crowds. A set route would have been a the logical step, but in reality, logical is not always best.
I want to see the 'real' Asia. I want to meet the locals and get off the beaten track. I have a habbit of having some pretty mental adventures, often alcohol fueled.
So why the blog? I've never kept a diary as such, emotions can get distorted and often lost as time passes, by logging how I feel, what I see and make note of the good and the bad then hopefully the experience will remain with me on a better level.
I'm both anxious and excited. I've decided to go with just two visas. A 90 day Vietnamese multiple entry visa and a Thai 60 day multiple entry visa. The Vietnamese being £105 and the Thai being £75.
To save over spending I have set up two current accounts. One being my primary account with all of the savings the other being an account that recieves a monthly direct debit from the first for a set amount.
