Asia.

[Gaia]

So I'm in the process of finalizing my trip round Asia for two months. Mainly I'll be going to India, Thailand, and Cambodia. Got my vaccines booked, getting insurance, applied for my visa and have booked hostels and trains and what not for when I'm out there.
I'd really love if any of you guys who have gone out there could tell me some things I might need. I've already got a padlock and chain to lock up my belongings in the hostel, a light weight sleeping bag which protects against bed bugs and mosquitoes and one of those towels which packs into a teeny tiny space. I'm getting water purification tablets and some sort of mini laundry detergent. And the usual holiday gear like sun screen etc of course.
Anything else I may have missed?

I don't really know of anything but it sounds like such an interesting trip! I hope you have fun Lou. Take picturesss.

Lou, sounds fantastic, i'm also planning a trip to thailand.

I'd suggest a small moneybelt- one that hids under a t-shirt like a flat one.

Also, a second form of photo ID. Several websites have told me to bring one.

Photo copies of important information- Plus email everything to yourself- such as flight numbers- so if you do lose things you have a copy that you cant lose.

Also, leave a copy of all important documents with a parent- my friend lost his passport whilst we were in sudan, it would have been hell if his mum didnt just scan over a copy for the police.

Good luck, enjoy and keep a journal x
