Hey I have 20k saved. I'm going to India for 6 months. What else should I do after that?
You should give some detail on what you like, where you've been, what you want to do, whether you want to spend all that 20k (20,000 whats? USD, EUR, GBP?), etc.

20k Canadian. I'm thinking of spendin 1000 a month in India, then continuing my travels. Mabe hit up Sri Lanka then SEA. Never been there. Been to Some parts of Africa before.

With $14k CAD in Southeast Asia you could do anything from survive for years in a smaller town to live like a literal king in Bangkok for 6 months. Love the region but you should spend some time thinking about what exactly you hope to get out of the trip. Can't speak on Sri Lanka but if you're already in India then SEA is a tightwad's travel paradise.

Just travelling I have no expectations to get something out of a trip, just and adventure I suppose, surfing in Sri Lanka. Was thinking of going to Vietnam or Siem Riep to work on a book. Somewhwere I could focus and live cheaply.

You'll have to figure out something to do with the extra $19,500.

I did India, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Maldives in one trip. If I had 6 months I would extend it to Burma and maybe spend another 6 months in Thailand and SEA. $20k can take you a loooooong way in that part of the world.

Just out of curiosity... do you have a job that will be waiting for you when you return or anything? Is the 20k all your money, or just a fund you have been collecting for travel? Honestly curious because disappearing for 6 months seems great, want to hear someone's experience.
>>1110622
Cool, maybe I will do that.
>>1110627
20 k is all my money right now. Will probably save another 8k by the time I leave in Sept.
My boss said I could come back, but I don't think he will realize how long I'm gone for.
I work in a kitchen. I don't have a career or any obligations at home. However I have a nagging part in my mind that life is moving fast and I should start to focus on something, and not just drift forever.

Thanks for the response. I have one more year of school ahead of me before I begin my career so I was curious. I hope one day I can devote 6+ months to travel. I guess hope isn't the right word... I just need to have the balls to initiate it. Have a month trip coming up but simply because it's the summer before I'm off to graduate school.
World has a different plan for all of us. If you're too settled you'll think you need to travel, if you drift too much you'll think you need to settle. My bad, pushing the post away from the normal topic haha. Hope you have a blast in India. Very respectful what you're doing. Most people I know working jobs instead of in a career just spend their money on idiotic items.

spend the rest on soap and hot water.

yeah, appreciated, and /trv/ is not as dumb as other boards, nor as popular, so you might be alright. Just some advice though, next time initiate contact through a throwaway email, like guerillamail or others like that.
>>1110585
Probably see a doctor
Make sure you figure out which street is designated.

I'm not the guy you're talking to, just anoth r anon who is taking some time off.
Me and my Mrs are getting married overseas and then travelling South America for nearly 4 months.
We have a home loan together and 2 small dogs.
My mrs is on a pretty good wage and I'm on a decent wage too, which obviously helps. A great job where the employer appreciates you I'd probably the biggest hurdle, if you want to go away and come back to a job. We were both able to get the time off, even tho I don't have nearly enough leave.
If you want to travel for a long time, SEA is definitely a worthwhile area that your money will last. I've been there too, but not for long stints, only 2 or 3 week stints.
The best thing for someone in your position, is to just pick a date a year or so in the future (maybe 6 months after you graduate), which gives you plenty of time to save up heaps. Pick a date, don't waste money on drinking excessively or partying, save a shit load, maybe coerce a friend or 2 to join you on the whole thing or just parts.
Obviously it's easier said than done. So if you pick a date, and aim to save a certain amount, what's the worst that could happen? You save some money and if the time comes you don't feel ready, don't go? I dunno, that's how I'd look at it.
Sorry to ramble and move thread away from OP

If you look like this, good luck in India if you travel by yourself.
>>1110585
Invest in underwear and pants for the times you forget and drink non-bottled water.
Why would anyone WANT to go to india?
>>1110585
Be wary of being gang raped when in India.
Hey /trv/esties
Work want me to go to India to show them how to do my job as its being "rightshored"
I'm getting a large cash compensation package and it will look good on my cv for future jobs so I'm considering going.
The trouble is I've recently had a few health issues, I may have hepatitis b/c, a fatty liver or something else unidentified at the moment. I've been told no over the counter medicines, no paracetemol and limit alcohol intake.
Does anyone know if the vaccinations for india affect your liver function?
If they do I cant go and work will have to find someone else to go over
Anyone have a clue?
Or is this really a question for a doctor?
Cheers cunts.
