With AirAsia X’s new Sydney – KL route, Adioso can find you trips to 20 Southeast Asia destinations for under $300!

As we loaded AirAsia’s Sydney to Kuala Lumpur route into Adioso yesterday, the price drops started flooding in…

 

That’s just a sample of what’s on offer for Sydney-siders now that you’re just a single low-cost flight away from one of Southeast Asia’s biggest hubs.

According to Adioso’s “Sydney to Southeast Asia in 1-stop” search, there are currently 20 destinations available for under $300 one-way, including:

 

These are all possible due to AirAsia’s current $149 promo flights for Sydney to KL.

They won’t last long, so you’d better be quick if you’re ready to go.

BUT you can bet they’ll be back again in not too long, so to be sure you’re the first to know when they re-appear, look for the “Find out when prices drop” form at the bottom of each search results page on Adioso.

Wishing we were: in Tibet

Wishing we were standing at the foot of the Himalayas, soaking in the energy from the thousands of prayer flags that are strewn as far as you can see.

We do not wish we were sipping on the warm salty flavour of yak butter tea. A couple of MoMo‘s would be nice though.

So put the kettle on.

 

Travel the world on a shoestring with HelpX

by Tom on June 23, 2011

This is a guest post from Drew Sing, a travel and startup enthusiast who lives in the Inner Richmond district in San Francisco.  Drew has been good enough to share his experiences of travelleing on the cheap by volunteering…


Helpx.net may be the answer if you’re looking to save money and are interested in a less touristy travel experience.

Helpx is a useful site for travelers who are willing to work four hours a day in exchange for food and accommodation. After your work is done, the rest of the day is yours to explore or relax. The site allows farms, hostels, homes, and any businesses in general to post tasks they need done for travelers who arewilling to help out for more than a week. For a two year premier membership of AUD $30, you can browse hosts in most countries.

Wanaka Lakehouse, New Zealand

View from Wanaka’s dock

I recently had the chance to be a “HelpXer” in Wanaka, New Zealand for three weeks at the beautiful Wanaka Lakehouse. For anyone looking for a 5-star experience, it’s a secluded retreat that offers a luxury eco-friendly experience.

What’s great about Helpx is that it allows you to meet the locals you’re helping as well as other travelers you work with. I had the chance to get to know Michael, the owner of the lakehouse and a very generous host. Michael is a laid-back Aussie who now lives in New Zealand with a passion for wine and biking. From day one he was generous and treated his helpers like family.

Everyone I worked alongside is now a close friend of mine. Helpx allowed me to meet Jayson and KC, two Canadians who are taking a year long trip around the world! I get jealous perusing their worldly Facebook albums.

I also learned a bit of Dutch from Bram, Daphne, Jesse, and Milou who were from the Netherlands. Because we lived together with fellow HelpXers, the friendships we built were much stronger than those you would make at hostels or bars when travelling. Helpx gave me the chance to travel Queenstown and Milford Sound with Bram and Daphne after we finished our time at the lakehouse.

Helpx is more than just offering a helping hand. It’s about trying new tasks you’d never work at home and building friendships with other travelers you live with. It’s a deeper travel experience than simply hopping from tourist spot to tourist spot. If you’re a seasoned traveler looking for an experience you’ll never forget, then Helpx may be for you!

Many thanks Drew!  You can check out his blog, or follow him on Twitter here.


Fun Fact

The Richmond District in San Francisco was named after the suburb of Richmond in Melbourne, Australia, where Adioso was founded and is still partly based!

The spontaneous traveller

by Hayley on June 15, 2011

Dancing with the sun...

The photo of the Thai beach that has been hanging above your desk for months.

The gloves that you bought in anticipation of a trip to Stockholm.

The passport you renewed four years ago “just in case”.

Adioso is all about spontaneous travel.

 

So what are you waiting for?
