It's so fun having a guy like me behind you in line at immigration, paying your overstay (allowing you to get your ass back to France after you've clearly been on 'E' for a month in Koh Phangan, waiting for the full moon party). Really, who the fuck wants to go to a 3rd world country and live on $85 / month? The girls (and, even ladyboys) won't even fuck Brad Pitt without the money. So, the only thing that you're guaranteed is that, as a bum, you probably won't freeze to death, being in a tropical environment.

Good comment. Backpackers SUCK. Not only are they cheap, but they typically are rude, slamming you with that monster backpack if you are close. Taking up half the clown sized van-taxi's with the backpacks that they won't send as checked luggage.
Please all backpackers do not visit asia, you suck, stay in your own countries and protest something instead.
