Little money is first a choice of travel attitude: spend less money, see more scenery, experience diverse lifestyles. Little money is also a choice of travel destinations: clichéd scenery, testing the traveler's taste and soul. The "Traveling with Little Money to Paradise" series of overseas travel books carefully selects cost-effective destinations for the uniquely individual you. The first batch of countries included are in South Asia and Southeast Asia, satisfying your unbound wallet and feet — you only need to save up around 3,000 yuan in pocket money to travel with ease for 7 days or even a month. These countries are filled with similar yet distinct cultures. You will be moved by the gentle, persistent people and the magnificent, weathered beauty. These countries that deeply touch Western tourists are also enough to make you hold your breath and walk silently. Of course, most importantly, you don’t need to worry about being denied a visa due to lack of savings proof for youth, nor do you need to worry about exchanging yuan. The book includes detailed maps and guides for food, lodging, and transportation. You only need a junior high-level English to boldly embark on your journey.
