How much it costs?

I have looked at my bank balance done some maths... The two months in South-East Asia have cost me a total of 1900€ and that includes my one-way flight here. That results in about 31 euros per day that I have spent. Granted, I haven't really been on any specific budget and thusly splurged on whatever I feel like without any remorse. And add to that the 6 flights I have flown during the travels and you can understand that it is a major contributor to the overall expenses. Also I have been staying in a bit more upscale accommodation most of the time and not always gone after the absolutely cheapest price. And shopped for some electronics in KL that is also included in there.

Accommodation would be something where it is easy to save some 10-20% and cutting down on the beer and eating more street food instead of sitting in restaurants would probably easily save me 50% on the nutrition budget. And not flying would have saved a lot as well: If I would have spent time instead of money I could have probably saved another 200e or so.

So it would be easy to live for under 20, under 15 euros a day and still be comfortable. Especially in Indonesia - Sumatra to be precise - which has been by far the cheapest area so far.

In Bangkok I am paying 6500 baht (≈135e) a month for my 30 square meter studio, the meals are one fifth of what you get in restaurants and beer comes from 7-Eleven so huge savings are coming from there as well. Actually, the financial student aid from the Finnish state is quite plentiful here and if I live sparingly, I guess I could travel a couple more months after february...
