Malaysia

Flying out of KL on a shoestring? Here is the honest ranking of the cheapest Southeast Asia countries to reach and survive on, flights plus ground cost.

Myanmar

Real 2026 numbers for backpacking Burma — daily budgets, the crisp-USD cash trap, the $50 eVisa, flights, and the safety caveat that decides where your money even goes.

Myanmar

Ten days gets you the whole accessible core of Myanmar without rushing. Here are realistic 5, 7, 10 and 14-day shapes, plus the security caveat you actually need.

Thailand

Real THB+USD fares for Thailand's sleeper trains, buses, budget flights and island ferries — plus the minivan and motorbike scams nobody warns you about.

The classic SEA loop, sequenced right — gateway, monsoon logic, border runs, and the 2026 closure that breaks the old clockwise route.
