Even before starting, this road trip requires a significant budget:

– Purchase of boxes, shelves to store what I keep: about €200

– Rental of the box for storage €58/month / one year: €696

– Vaccines and medical expenses partially reimbursed. Remaining chargeable: €75

– Passport: €86

– Transition to "expatriate security" (CFE + MGEN) / one year: €237

Less the $117 that I currently pay to MGEN: €120

– Backpack 70 liters Decathlon: 155€

– Rigid suitcase: €159

– Shoes: €50

– Barcelona->Bangkok ticket: €568

We can therefore estimate the preliminary budget at about €1500

The plane ticket: €568

So I spent about €2000 before leaving, i.e. a month’s retirement. Life on site will therefore have to be more economical.

But it should be noted that most of these expenses will not be renewed for other destinations.
