Street food is so much cheaper than eating in the restaurants and, more often than not, it is much tastier. Go further afield for cheaper and more authentic street food. Eat where the locals eat.
Munduk in the mountains of Bali is astoundingly clean and tidy, and the local people very friendly. There are many very very cheap things to do in Munduk.
The mountains in Bali are very picturesque with lush forest, clean villages and very friendly people. The waterfalls are wonderful and most are very accessible. Don’t forget to take your swimwear… nothing beats swimming under a waterfall!
Getting around Bangkok, or Thailand for that matter, doesn’t need to be expensive. In fact, we think it is super cheap and easy to do on a budget. However, there are some things you need to know first, particularly about taxis and tuk tuks, and the scams involving them.
Pattaya! What to expect! What will you need to know about to make the most of your visit? Getting around? Walking Street? Bars and bar girls? Massage? What about the beach? Is there crystal clear what?
The countryside hurtled by to the soundtrack of excruciatingly loud music and a blaring bus horn. Landmarks, and local villages, merely a blur as we shot past without slowing, barely missing small children, dogs, pigs and chickens… we didn’t miss the cow. I knew we were about to hit something when the driver hit the brakes so hard I was thrown forward in my seat.

If coffee and waterfalls aren’t your thing, there is always tea, trekking or just relaxation.
What could possibly be so interesting about looking at a pile of jars on a plain? Well… they are made of stone, they are big, and there are hundreds of them! No one really has any idea why they are there and what they were used for.
“For what purpose, and by whom the jars were created remains, to this day, a mystery. There are, of course, many theories surrounding these ancient jars. Some theories are backed up by partial evidence including Madeleine Colani’s research in the 1930’s which concluded that the jars were associated with burial practices. Local theories include the jars being used to brew rice wine and, my favourite… that they were the cups of giants.”
