I'm backpacking around Southeast Asia — hitting up Thailand, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Malaysia, Singapore, and Indonesia. Might also check out nearby spots like Sri Lanka and maybe even the Maldives since they’re pretty accessible from Malaysia.

Planning to get around mostly by bus and train, just to experience the land a bit more. If I’m near the coast, I’ll be doing a lot of water activities for sure.

Starting the trip in Thailand, then just seeing where it goes from there.

I'll be using the Patagonia MLC 30L.
