Hi ToffeeClub1929,
thanks for ur compliments and inputs.

Hi Fatum,
I seconded ur idea!
Actually, me oso a budget traveller. Looking for all
sorts of cheap accomodations, places of interested via the website
and inputs from forumers. Btw, me havent tried back-packing, but
would love to try out.
Hi leo-kun,
I agreed with ToffeClub1929 that dun have to spend lot on holidays.
I went to Taipei this March too, it was sooo cold. Avg abt 10
degree. Spent $800 on accomodations and flights for two pax. The
airfare cost me $200 (including of all taxes) each, promotion from
Jetstar. The accomodation is abt $80+ per room per night. Think din
really do my homework for that trip, cos many places din go and
lots of nice food din try. So me considering going again to taste
all the nice food there, cos din manage to do that on my last
trip.
Why not start by going to M'sia with ur friends, like Genting or
beach resorts or Island eg: Redang. The place is very beautiful,
can try snorkelling. Its not very exp. Last July 05, Five-star
travel got promotion for Mutiaria Redang resort for $199, includes
coach, transfer, full board and snorkelling trips. Value for $$. Do
call them if to check on their current promotions.
===================================================
Luckily there are quite a number of budget airlines and now the
airfares are relatively cheaper than before. Do checkout
www.airfares.com.sg, they always have lots of promotion
going-on.
Btw, planning for my next trip to Bangkok this Oct for 6D5N. Also
very budget one, airfares abt $95 (including taxes) and
accomodation is abt $32 per room per night.
