Series 2 Overview Q&A | Thoughts on Central America

[@SteveYalo]

HAHAHA nearly pissed myself when Lina drops her phone and just responds with "...yeah" - I fucking love you guys! Thanks for the shoutout ;) If you're reading this, I was that handsome devil holding the camera for Paddy and you should go sub to my channel! You will see some videos of my time staying with Paddy in Chiang Mai coming very soon! :D

[@TheBudgeteers]

Steve Yalo thanks again for helping out buddy :)

[@kerahgunting3268]

The Budgeteers Are there any countries you wouldn't visit personally or for a series?

[@TheBudgeteers]

liaml540 (Paddy) I'm not really interested in anywhere I've already been, 2017 onwards I wanna visit new countries

[@TheBudgeteers]

Timo de Jong yeah Steve Yalo, he's the next big thing :)

[@dillon.p8629]

The Budgeteers where are you going in season 3????

[@TheBudgeteers]

We are still figuring that out Dillion. Where would you like to see us go?

[@andrewwilkinson9450]

Totally binge watched the whole series! Appreciate the effort to put this together and get it out there. I literally never watch TV, only KZbin and I have to say, this is the best travel series out there! Massive well done. p.s Lina, you are so right about Myanmar (Burma), my favourite place on the planet! Beautiful country and people. Looking forward to Series 3 but in the meantime, I'm gonna check out series 1. Peace

[@TheBudgeteers]

Andrew Wilkinson cheers bro! We also have a series in Myanmar

[@andrewwilkinson9450]

The Budgeteers yeah bro, watched the series this morning. It was amazing and you totally did the country justice. Drawn out in the video, everything that is amazing! New favourite KZbin channel. Just finishing off Series 1 now. My itchy feet are back and I'm once again inspired to get out on the road again. Definitely going to try couch surfing and hitching next time. Well done guys!! Top channel

[@SilverfoxJB]

2022 here, just binge watched Se 1 and Se2, the restv o follow (even those I have watched before) and I'm working my way through Paddys solo channel. I cant wait until I return to Asia in September. You have given me some great ideas for my future vlogs

LINA, Am 40 and my Partner age 33 sadly past away 2yrs ago, You are the only person that reminds me of her, like her twin, and you make me feel really happy watching you being you in your videos,.SO I JUST WANT TO SAY "THANK YOU"....

[@TheBudgeteers]

aw thats really sweet. and i am so sorry to hear your partner passed. im sure she was an amazing person xx

[@damlitproductions8126]

Thanks

[@ryansully1303]

Binging this series after you came back online. Great surprise to see the man behind the camera was Steve Yalo. Love watching his videos since the Myanmar days.

[@danielbresach1182]

You guys have been so inspirational. I've enjoyed series 2 over the past few days. Now on to Series 1 and buying a shirt!

[@TheBudgeteers]

thats amazing! thanks so much Daniel

[@venomvon]

Just returned from my first trip abroad in Thailand and I am super inspired to travel solo, and hitchhike with a friend someday I hope to get to meet you all someday!! Cheers, you’re all so amazing!!

[@TheBudgeteers]

thanks for watching :)

[@plainvanillaguy]

For series 3, you should pick up where you left off (Panama City) and go on to conquer South America. I feel that the inertia is there for this. It would be an excellent sequel to the Central America series.

[@TheBudgeteers]

good idea :)

[@Mackenziie3]

I just love this show! It was so entertaining. Netflix quality. Can’t wait for more!

[@ryanbooth8421]

I think that was a great series. You come across great as a team, the editing is maturing throughout, there is lots of energy and you’re all passionate about what you’re doing. Keep up the dream guys. I’m leaving the Army in 14 months and will be following my own dreams of solo travel around the world. 🤙

[@lopez0121]

My husband and i Just discovered your channel yesterday and we binged watched season 2 (central america) & loved it so now i cant wait to back track to season 1 we are a bit backwards but so glad we joined!!!! Keep up the work guys love the idea & the inspiration!!!!

[@TheBudgeteers]

thats awesome! glad you liked it and welcome to our channel!!! Series 3 starts next week too!! (well filming anyway)

[@SKaum]

Thanks for another episode - it was interesting to see how you guys interpreted every question differently - awesome! I love watching you guys especially season 2 because at the very moment I am traveling Central America solo and it is so great to recognize all the places you went to in season 2. I am so enjoying my trip and really, you inspired me so much to do this. Best thing I ever did, and I still got 2 months ahead! Thanks guys!

[@TheBudgeteers]

wow thats awesome! stay safe and have a blast!

[@Wayfaringwanderersofficial]

Love both series! And these Q+A's are great too!! We are Canadians currently living in China with plans to do SE Asia in January. Thanks guys!

[@TheBudgeteers]

you're welcome and thanks :)

[@saldenkris]

Two days - Two seasons! Loved it! Great job guys! You gave me a lot of inspiration to start traveling again! Thanks for that! Can't wait for season 3!

[@TheBudgeteers]

coming in the spring!

[@conner4435]

Question: if all three of you have enough money to do a 'HOW TO TRAVEL THE WORLD ON $10,000' season. Where would you begin the journey and end? OR would you break that down to 8-10 more seasons? Loved both seasons and can't wait for S3!

[@TheBudgeteers]

start in LDN and finish in NYC would be cool....but whose got 10k? haha

[@anialfarorealtor6565]

I should've thought about doing this before being 30!! So awesome. I started watching the series because I googled traveling on a budget. Now Im obsessed!! ✌

[@MusicMan2k7]

Binge watched Series 1 and 2 over the past few days. I'm studying for my Masters in the US right now but i'm back home in England for the summer. You guys have inspired me to travel after graduation, i've always wanted to but it's always been a bit of a dream; watching your journeys has helped me think more realistically about it, looking at flights as we speak ;D Would love to see a South American series 3!

[@DatuNonito]

I've been a subby since under #300, every single episode I truly enjoyed and learned a lot from it. Thanks guys :)

[@TheBudgeteers]

[@shaneyoung1690]

Hi guys loving season 1 and 2 , I think the best thing to do is keep it real. Best travel

[@felipecaceres6585]

Completely agree about Thailand and Chiang Mai. Definitely the best place I have traveled and lived in

[@TheBudgeteers]

100% :)

[@JJL3EE]

I've just made my way thru series 2 and I'm so happy I did. I was watching old episodes of Kara and Nate and you guys popped up in their India travels. I love how different of travelers you guys are and am excited to binge the next handful of series you guys have. Its a good motivator for my 2020 travel aspirations to just pick up and go. thanks! ON TO THE SRI LANKA SERIES!

[@sashadelrosario9510]

Honestly so happy you guys are putting videos up again 😄

[@TheBudgeteers]

thanks so much for watching! x

[@maxjeggo8014]

Hey guys So just binged watched season1 & 2 over easter weekend. Just wanted to say was much better than normal TV. Brilliant concept. Not sure i prefer the commentry in season 2 as prefered season 1 authenticness, however understand how difficult it is to edit on the road, so either way very compelling. Look forward to season 3 x

[@TheBudgeteers]

cheers Max, welcome to our channel :)

[@dougm3037]

You're doing well to maintain relationships like that on the road. It can be really testing and is not uncommon for friendships to dissolve. I personally prefer to travel alone these days. Nice to catch up with friends for a short time but not constantly. Like most things in life has plus and minuses. Looking forward to returning to Chiang Mai early next year. My home away from home. I can understand why you love living there.

[@TheBudgeteers]

Cheers Doug and yeah we feel you! solo travel is what we do most of the year too

[@pinkpeony15]

Done watching s1-3 & xmas special, done recommending this channel to workmates, up next: buying the merch after payday this week bcs i these 49 vids are not enough i need to see moooah. u guys are the bomb... sending hearts from Jakarta.

Hi IAM from Los Angeles I watched all the series. I have to admit I cried when Lina left you make a nice team. I support you I will be buying your shirt thanks

favourite part - Lina dropping her phone! burst out laughing on the train! Also Paddy, I think you should have answered your question whilst doing that exercise class in the background!

ha ha no seriously!!! ;-)

[@alicetothemoon1999]

so nice to hear from you guys again!!! :)

[@TheBudgeteers]

good to be back :)

[@GambiBoi]

My vote for series 3 would definitely be the Balkans. Lots of small countries to jump from and to, very budgeteer friendly, people are welcoming, and it's safe!

[@TheBudgeteers]

thats a cool idea :) Karl Watson is going there this week so check his channel out for his series on the Balkans very soon :)

[@PatDaley]

It was a total surprise hearing my name in this haha. Completely forgot I asked a question! Great Q&A - you guys are too cool :)

i just saw your season 2 and season 3 in last 4 days and had to say you have inspired me a lot i have been working on my online startup for this kind of idea only where i have to work for 4 hrs a day on a laptop and can travel anywhere i want so i just want to say thanks for giving me motivation for working hard and i just have a wish right now that i want to travel with you guys someday have a great life:)

[@stateofzan]

I love it when my friends succeed! Love you guys.

[@TheBudgeteers]

we love you zan!!

[@Albert-ez6fx]

You guys are a great trio. Lina's dark humor is a perfect foil to Paddy and Thijs.

[@lisalamee5238]

A question for Lina: During the 2. series you were accompanied by two men. But if you had been by yourself would you have done: a) hitchhiking ? b) couchsurfing with a male host ? I love the budgeteering way to travel and I love your videos! You guys said you wanted to show that a girl can do it as well - for sure!:) But I feel like it isn't possible as a solo female traveller by herself...

[@JamesyboyExperiment]

Another totally amazing series!!!! Binge watching!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you

[@mon9dk]

Thanks to Steve Yalo, I got to know about you guys. You are awesome, can't wait to see more of your adventures. In about 4 months time I'll head out on my own adventure. Thijs if you end up in Denmark on your Europe trip, feel free to contact me. I'll gladly show you around Copenhagen and I have couch you can sleep on. :-)

Please do a season in Patagonia! It's a great tourist destination, but also a bit more expensive... so it would be a good challenge and hopefully help others travel Patagonia cheaply! Thanks!

What was your favorite part about visiting Guatemala? I was born there but was adopted as a baby and now live in the US. I haven't been there since i was born so i need to go travel my country. Thanks for the great content!!

Live for yourself, not for others, I remember some people where my parents lived, all telling me, why what I was doing, the way I was living was wrong, and every 1 of them started with, I want to do that but... after letting them all vent, I turned around and said wow, now I know why you all hate me, I do all the things you lot want to do, but are too scared too.

Would you consider the way that you guys travelled (hitckhiking, couchsurfing etc) safe for two females in Central America? Headed there with a mate in a few weeks and just curious to know what you guys think. Ps bloody loved your entire series, hope there's many more to come!

[@thja98]

Great Series 1 and 2, loved watching them! excited for the next one in India. My question is, how do you navigate while travelling, especially in series 2. Do you use your phones? ordo you show the people on a map wehere you wanna go, when you get a hitch? Keep up your amazing work! :-)

[@TheBudgeteers]

a little bit of googlemaps, little bit of normal maps we draw ... its not always that hard to get around, and getting lost is the fun part :)

[@patrickhart1325]

Love that you three are doing these Q&A videos, great stuff! I've got a question for you; is teaching English in SE Asia with TEFL/TESOL certification but no degree possible? Is it ethical? I'm a writer and an avid reader, so I know the English language like the back of my hand. Though when I think about getting the certification and trying to find a job abroad, I start convincing myself I'd be cheating these people out of a proper education since I don't have a degree.

[@amberlovely1]

I'm getting my TEFL in November and I've wondered the same thing. I'm not sure about SE Asia, as I think many countries there require a degree, but there are a LOT more countries you can teach in without a degree and many online companies as well.

[@TheBudgeteers]

its possible and ethical. I am qualified but teachers who aren't can and are sometimes better.

[@patrickhart1325]

The Budgeteers Thanks much for the reply, that makes me feel better about considering it. Perhaps it's time to get my certification and go through with it!

[@patrickhart1325]

amberlovely1 I think Vietnam still allows just the certificate, which is where I've been interested in teaching. South Korea would be awesome, but I think schools there do require a four year degree.

Is there a way to support you financially without having to buy a shirt? Something where a higher percentage of funds can actually get into your hands (and not have to go towards something like shipping, or customs fees...), like a Patreon or GoFundMe account?

[@markting377]

Daniel Allard I was thinking the same thing

[@davidalfaro7814]

Daniel Allard I second to that.

[@TheBudgeteers]

we don't want to ask for a hand out so we can travel and make another series. we think thats lame. but you can always post us cash! hahaha

[@danallard]

Hey Paddy, at least, I THINK it's Paddy I'm replying to, I 100% understand and agree with that concern. However, (and please note that I've been a broadcaster with a comms background since 1990,) it's all in how you approach the issue. As an example, if you were to provide an avenue for those with Ad Blocker, to be able to submit a "Guilt Offering", then you would be absolved of whatever "hand out" stigma you've mentioned. That's just one of dozens of differently spun scenarios you can use - and I don't mean to press this issue, I really don't. But it does seem to me that you have a significant fan base (yours truly included) who greatly appreciate what you've done, are looking forward to what's ahead and want to do what they can to financially assist you, Thijs and Lina in the most expedient and efficient way possible. If the shirt option is the only way, then so be it. It just seems to me, a Canadian, that if I'm paying $55 CDN for you 3 to go out and show me places, peoples, and cultures on this planet that I probably will never have the chance to visit, but truly have an interest in, and you're only receiving $15, maybe $20 tops, then there's something wrong with that model. I love you guys. I love your videos! The production quality. The drama. The beautiful images from exotic locations! I just wish there was something more I could do to give you all a leg up. I'm also pretty confident that I'm not alone in this regard. To sum it up, I guess this is all just food for thought. Would love to discuss this over Canadian beers, but I highly doubt that will be a possibility - at least in the near future. Either way I'm greatly looking forward to Season 3!

[@TheBudgeteers]

Hey Daniel, thanks for the awesome message and yeah this is Paddy (but i speak for the guys when I say that) We would totally set up a go fund me etc if we thought that most of the subscribers would be on board and happy to donate for a future series. But we think that most would see that as shitty thing to do and so we are trying to fund a future series in other ways (i.e. the tshirts, working with brands or people we like for promotion on this platform) we really dont want to ruin a good thing (even though awesome people like you would be happy to fund us etc. All I can say is thanks for the concern, and for sure if you come to CM let's get a beer, in the meantime.....BUY A TEE SHIRT!!! haha :)

So I'm currently pursuing a degree in Environmental Engineering. I want to travel more than it seems my life will allow. 2018 fall, im taking a semester off to go to Spanish school in Antigua Guatemala then returning in 2018 summer to another Central American location to finish Spanish school. Past this plan, I want to backpack or budgeteer central and southeast Asian but don't know the time in my life to do it. I'm afraid traveling will hurt me career. (I'm way more passionate about traveling than I am my degree). Any advice on when to travel in life or my situation. Much love.

Do you guys have an estimate on how much more money someone would need if they weren't comfortable with hitchhiking? I love your guys' channel! But as a solo female, I'm not sure hitchhiking would be the safest way for me to go.

[@TheBudgeteers]

Depends where you go, but central America was cheap... Few dollars per chicken bus 😊

Hey Guys,, I watched all Central America episodes, and in fact I'm flying to Cuba this week for 10 days then I'll fly to Mexico to cross it until Panama just like you guys , just I want to ask what Sim Card should I take for an internet ? "for Google Maps & Couchsurfing", also since I'm a solo traveler and don't have a Spanish language, do I expect a lot of trouble? 😌 thanks guys..

[@TheBudgeteers]

get one when u arrive

[@xoooxthanks6957]

How do you avoid getting sick while traveling? I cannot but be scared from mosquitos and water (especially SE Asia)

[@TheBudgeteers]

we don't. getting sick or having the shits is part of travel

[@vladcristea5984]

Guys, what are you doing in order to keep your money safe during long travels (especially if you are traveling alone). Do you always keep your card and cash on you, or do you leave it at your hostel? It would suck to lose access to your money. Maybe you could address this in your next Q&A

[@TheBudgeteers]

i keep everything on me, taking a few hundred $$$ worth of cash out per week

[@vladcristea5984]

And do you have a back-up plan in case, God forbid, you lose your stuff? Also, you can't always have everything on you...for example if you are at the seaside and you wanna go in for a swim... stuff like that.. how do you handle those situations?

[@TheBudgeteers]

1. dont lose your shit. 2. just be smart

[@vladcristea5984]

:))) yeah, it makes sense... but this is a big challenge when you travel alone - You are on a beach, you have all the stuff on you... and you wanna go in for a swim... you can't really ask someone to watch your stuff (personally, I never do that - I've been asked to do so but I wouldn't do it...I have trust issues lol ) so I was wondering how you guys are handling that since you've said you guys used to travel alone a lot, I bet you had to deal with situations like this a lot

[@TheBudgeteers]

why do you need anything other than a towel, a book and a bottle of suncream at the beach? leave your valuables in a locker at your hostel or safe in your room and then tackle the day. if you wanna take your phone or whatever to the beach then just hide under your towel or whatever. Its not rocket science :)

Great! Mexico! We're traveled through Mexico the past 9 months and at the moment we're in the state Chiapas. It's an amazing country. We put our travel experiences into weekly vlogs. Check it out on our KZbin channel. Have a great time! Adios!

[@DutchNomadFamily]

Great channel! Glad we find you guys! We're traveling full time as a Dutch Nomad Couple. Currently in Mexico. We love it here, we could even live here! Next; Los Angeles, and then sailing, and road tripping through Europe. Just subscribed and if you're interested, check out our channel. We just published our first tutorial; How to make money and travel the world. Cheers!

[@TheBudgeteers]

sounds awesome, will go check it out for sure

You could "redo" Mexico for #3.

[@TheBudgeteers]

would LOVE to

[@bncarpenter17]

Technically Mexico is part of both north and central America

[@TheBudgeteers]

good to know

[@bncarpenter17]

Sorry that probably came across as a bit snarky. Big fan of the series, and season two made me nostalgic of when I bought a shitty car and spent 6 months with a buddy couchsurfing and working in Mexico. Really excited for season 3!

[@yassos123]

love ur videos guys maybe you could go to africa for your next series

[@TheBudgeteers]

its on the list for sure!

[@curtisgregory517]

I agree, Africa. I also agree your favorite place Thailand. (my travel experience was mostly work connected to wars and conflicts in 35+ countries/on 5 continents/mileage equivalent to over 180 times around the World.)

[@kerricarder-mccoy5338]

Would you guys go back and do an entire Mexican series?

[@TheBudgeteers]

Oh yes we hope to do so one day. Mexico is definitely big enough 😄

[@kerricarder-mccoy5338]

@@TheBudgeteers how about the US?

[@615mic]

Hey I think you guys are awesome. I wanted to know what Lina does to deal with her motion sickness on the road. My girlfriend suffers from severe motion sickness and it keeps her from experiencing some of the best places I've seen. We've tried everything we can think of :/.

[@TheBudgeteers]

hey mike! i just take strong motion sickness medicine. for when i get sick theres not much to do except power through it! does she take pills or anything?

[@615mic]

Yeah she takes Dramamine and it kinda works sometimes. There's no way in hell that I can get her on an overnight bus or train though :(.

[@615mic]

Thanks for responding . Hopefully I 'll run into some of you guys when I go to Asia next year.

[@kevincastellon8127]
