beautiful video, i can relate to a lot of that. Have had both good and okay experiences, especially in terms of the finance side. I went on a Europe trip with good money saved up and visited all the major cities like rome, paris, barcelona, ibiza, nice, piacenza and lots of poland and italy, and had an amazing time of my life. I went for 2 n half months for which 1 month i volunteered to teach canadian culture in polish schools (accodomation + food provided. Now compared this my most recent trip, I just came back from a 7 month cheap on a budget trip in southeast asia (thailand, indonesia, malaysia and india) and like walter said bummed it out for 3 months of it. I can definitely look back and say the europe trip was more enjoyable due to the fact that i was able to experience and dive into the culture of the place on a deeper level, while the trip to southeast asia at times was just doing nothing and reflecting on existence maybe too much at times. Good advice from Walter and I can most definitely test to that.

Hey Wolter, love your vidoes, I'm a long time watcher. I have a question for you. I plan on taking 2-3 years off in the future, to just travel non-stop. How should I start? What places would you highly recommend, might you have an idea of how much I should save up to travel non-stop for 2-3 years? I want to go to every continent, except Anartica, I'm thinking maybe 5 to 10 countries per continent. I would love to get some advice from you.

my advice 4 japan: try out sake when you go out for drinks: D theres not only the strong sake but even soft, sparkling and sweet ones. it will come you much cheaper than beer. they put extra taxes on beer, so a Tin of Yebisu would come for 320 yen, thats about 3 Dollars or Euro. best one (near german quality) is Yebisu. Cheaper ones are Sapporo or Asahi.
And honestly. do you go to japan for their beer? ;)

my longest was 3 months in Japan, although it was mostly study. I rented a portable wifi pod, saved money with monthly train commuter passes. I did lots of cultural stuff and travel as well, really loved it and didn't want to come home at the end! I stayed in a sharehouse run by a great company called Borderless House which allows you meet locals, so I got to make lots of Japanese friends too

There must be a lot of research to do. I can go to Thailand for 30 days without problem. But I tried to read about longer stays. Then it starts to be overly complicated. And I think this is one of the easier countries. ( I have not been traveling, just vacation: -)

This advice is really good. I went away on a 6, 5 month trip last year. Flexibility is important and also not to rush things. It is better to stay for longer in the places you like and travel faster through the places that you don't like as much.

I have found that the major sites are well worth visiting but the smaller towns and villages or some of the most rewarding cultural experiences.
They will often help ease the financial burden as well as they are often more affordable.

I felt with the mentality part when I traveled with the military for 3 months at a time. Always had a kind of break down after two weeks and then I was ok for the rest of the time. 3 months you could really get to know a place too.

I'll be traveling to Ireland soon. It will my first time traveling and being on an airplane. I'm traveling alone as well, and all of your videos have been so incredibly helpful! Thank you so much.
