I’ve been going through all your SEA articles in planning for an upcoming trip; the only bad thing, is that your spelling of ‘Aussie’ is killing me!

I love the blog and was wondering how bad are the mosquitos? You mention no need to bring a net but I was wondering if it could be useful in rural places? Also is mosquito repellent spray good enough as I am wondering if also buying those wristbands/patches and other similar items is worth it?

Many thanks,
Ben

Thanks for your kind words Jeb. Hopefully the pandemic will be behind us soon so we can travel again! 🙂

Thanks a bunch for all the fantastic content!

It’s a mad year to be sure. I’m taking all the travel I can get and found myself in Greece recently too! Hopefully by the time you’re flying out there, Thailand will have opened up for tourism. With any luck it might be a perfect time to go.

My wife and I were due to travel in 2020 to NZ,S.E Asia etc for many months- plans now scuppered by COVID-19- so have a flight into Singapore Feb 01 and out of Bangkok 4 months later. We have travelled extensively but not to this area. Closest was China, Vietnam and Sri Lanka which we loved but mainly guided and some time on our own. We are rubbish packers so your tips are greatly appreciated Currently in the Greek islands but we have way too much and in suitcases
Hope you’re ok during this new madness of the world?
Cheers Tom
