Am planning on doing SEA for 6 months solo starting early 2027.

Did a month in Vietnam last August and was the most amazing time of my life.

Now plan on doing Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Philippines, Indonesia and maybe Borneo, and since I know one wants to explore the countries deeper, would give myself quite sometime.

Any tips on how a route between these countries and what's a somewhat comfortable, but not luxurious budget to travel these countries?

Was considering 40-50€ a day? I know it might be a stretch including flights and activities.

Edit: And btw this would be the rough itinerary I have in mind. Want mostly to not rush any place.

Thailand — 5.5 weeks (might do north first and south only after Laos and Cambodia)
Laos — 3 weeks
Cambodia — 3 weeks
The Philippines — 6 weeks
Indonesia — 8 weeks
Borneo — 2 weeks
