Going to Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand next month. Any tips for me? I'm interested in Buget travel..treks, and soaking in as much of the culture as possible. Got my shots yesterday for Hep A and B and a Tetnus...OUCH!!! Do I need any more (I hope not)?

thanks..

      learn to swim!!

      oh and stay close to american naval bases, the one in thailand funnily enough had not a single casualty as they were prepared but didnt have any "local phone numbers"

      tsk tsk

      if you get short of cash pretend you have a penis and dance for japanese buisness men......very lucrative

      oh and while your out there can you pick me up an orphaned baby there soo cute, one with slitty eyes, and pig tails.....preferably one that can already speak english cant be arsed teach it, although if it can cook thai meals then i'll take it anyway

      I think i may get flamed for that one

        Actually a friend of mine just returned from the region... let me see if I can coax her into joining the tribe and sharing some of her experience and advice.

          Jennie. My advice is to get me all drunk and stuff, drug me and squeeze me into one of your suitcases. Just remember to take me out when you hit the beach. See you Sat.

            NICE...I ask for a bit O' advice..and All I get are FREAKS with smart alec answers!!!! mmmmmmph!! (Trilo excluded)

            Drunken nurse...you better check your doorstep in the next couple months....there just might be a cambodian baby holding your thai take away (speaking VERY little english)!!!

            Paynie..find a suitcase with wheels, cause I ain't carrying your big ass!!

            xoxo

            ps..trilo, looking forward to hearing your friend's travel experience.

    check out the Thailand tribe at tland.tribe.net

    There are some burners over there at the moment but I haven't heard from anyone in a couple of weeks.
    Also check out Lonely Planet's BBS boards called Thorntree
    thorntree.lonelyplanet.com/
    and once you're over there get a copy of Farang magazine (means tourist) they've got great up to date info on borders and such that they change monthly.

    Goog luck!
    *steph*


    p.s. unless you are going to be spending a lot of time in Cambodia you prob. don't need malaria meds and then they're a lot cheaper to buy over there (everything is).
