I am planning on backpacking around Thailand, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia and the Philippines in mid april this year i just wanted to know if thats enough money to do a fair amount of activties without having to worry constantly. Also what i can do to keep the costs down, other than budgeting and stay in cheap accom etc.
Thanks again. All suggestions are welcome.

I’ve just learned of a game called geocaching. You use a GPS to locate hidden items placed in remote spots around the world. One of the clues for a cache near my home says that a previous visitor had “ducked” the cache. The term seems to be used in backpacking as well.
Do you know what this means?

One of the first things I have learned when camping/backpacking is to never keep any kind of food inside your tent at all. If so, and one is backpacking, say through the Rockies, then where should you put your food when you are not hiking?
