I'm going to be in Thailand and Malaysia for 4 months, April to the end of July. After that since I'm already on the other side of the world I have this urge to just go on a crazy adventure. At this point I would have my 40L bag, laptop, camera and maybe $1000 to invest in gear and food on the way and a credit card for my flight home.
I love to film and document my travel, I'll be doing this in Malaysia too on my YouTube channel. I'd love to overland a country mostly on foot but I'm open to the odd bus but I think it would be a very humbling experience and great to film.
Has anyone done this before? I'm thinking maybe a month overland would be solid but I could keep going if I felt. What gear would I need? Risks, like theft, death, environmental stuff? Could you recommend a country down near SEA, (China, India?)
Thanks so much for any thoughts or insights on the matter.
