Thinking to travel outside Asia but has no budget?

Wish to travel with friends but dream is not easy to realize due to monetary, schedule and many others unexpected reasons?

Why not travel yourself (or some of your friends) with other young travellers coming across the globe who they are between 18 to 35 so you’ll always find someone ready to get in on the action or share an adventure. Whether it be celebrity spotting in LA, braving Amsterdam on a bicycle, sipping coffee at a cafe in Rome or snorkelling the Great Barrier Reef near Cairns.

Yes, is the answer. It’s just amazing how we can travel altogether with such a deal!

Travel – One night in Bangkok

Although one day (or night!) in Bangkok is not enough time to delve into the intricacies of a place with such a wealth of culture and range of activities, it is possible to see its best bits in a day. So many tourists overlook the fact that this remarkable city offers a great deal in culture and activity that few bother to spend more than a day or two passing through. If you would rather get to the island and mountains, here’s what we suggest you get to in just one day.

Probably the most visited attraction in Thailand’s capital is Wat Phra Kaew (temple of the Emerald Buddha), located in the grounds of the Grand Palace. This complex was the official home of the Thai monarchy until the 20th century and offers spectacular examples of a range of architectural styles including authentic Thai and Italian Renaissance. The complex is also home to the monumental statue the Emerald Buddha. The Buddha figurine, dating to 43 BC and originating in India, is carved from green jade and clothed in intricate gold ornamentation. More on the Grand Palace.

All other must-go places: Wat Arun, National Museum, Vimanmek Palace, Chatuchak
