Synopsis

Hit the Southeast Asia hippy trail in a rickety bus packed with chickens. You'll find your nirvana at a Buddhist temple, on a perfect beach or in a bowl of noodle soup. Written for backpackers by backpackers, this guide to 11 countries lets you go further, stay longer and pay less for an adventure of a lifetime. This original and longest-running travel guide to Southeast Asia covers Myanmar, East Timor, Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam. There are suggested itineraries by expert authors with over 20 years combined travel experience in Southeast Asia. A "Getting Started" chapter provides insider tips on getting the most out of travel in this popular travel destination-including how to eat, sleep and travel without blowing the budget. Included are dedicated sections on studying, working and volunteering, as well as responsible travel.
