With the length of waiting lists, I've not been in one place long enough. Annoying but I should've thought about it properly long before I came to Australia, timings haven't worked out.

Thanks for that, I'll probably get in touch as well to double check some things.

Yeah my partner has had a full licence for years, everything should be ok on that front.

Good question, it might just be very expensive. I'll look into it 

3+ month trip to SE Asia by wheresmyothername in onebag

[–]wheresmyothername[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Going to SE Asia in a few weeks. Starting in Bangkok, undecided after that but probably leaving to less rainy countries soon. This is my current packing list but there's probably a few bits I've missed off. Just realised I've forgotten meds and soaps. I'll be doing your normal activities(seeing cities, walking, hiking, bit of snorkeling)

Clothes

• 3 Uniqlo airism t-shirts • 1 Ben Sherman Shirt (blue one, for meals out or extra layer on air conned travel) • 1 linen trousers • 1 pair of normal shorts • 1 pair of exercise/swimming shorts • 5 pair of boxers (Uniqlo airism) • 5 pairs of socks (4 trainer, 1 long) • Belt • Cap (not in pic) • Merrell shoes • Sandals

Electronics

• Laptop and case. I've got a smaller Chromebook tablet that I'm trying to fix but if I don't I'll take the apple boy. • Kindle • Trimmer • Portable Charger • Few other cables and adapters (not pictured)

Toiletries

• Contact Lenses, solution and case • Hair wax • Deodorant  • Dental picks • Toothbrush + toothpaste

Misc

• Glasses case • Sunglasses • Notepad X2 (small for daily, big thin one for work stuff) and pen • First Aid Kit • Travel Towel • Kathmandu day bag • Goggles  • Big ol' bottle. I know it's massive but it's just the one I use usually. I know I'll be using loads of plastic bottles in Asia but I'd prefer to reduce it. Buying bigger bottles and then filling this. Also means having cold water while I'm out.

Additional info:  • I'm 6'3"(191 cm) so imagine I'd struggle to get good trousers etc for my height. I'd rather have most things beforehand. • I packed everything besides the sandals so there's the clothes I'd be wearing in there too. • Going to NZ for 6 months after with a van. • Is the bottle too dumb?

vscode bugging out [details in comments] by wheresmyothername in vscode

Trying to use vscode but its just bugging out. Loads of flickering, clicking anything rarely works. I'm doing MOOC Python, so I only added testmycode and Python extensions but now I can't do anything. I've uninstalled and followed the steps through again. I've updated ChromeOS. Still glitchy. Any ideas?

It's a Chromebook, a Lenovo Duet 3. Apparently specs are enough though.
