Because of the 0 yuan airfare, I went to Thailand alone for my graduation trip.
"The travels during student days are the real travels!"
After the opening of the country's borders, international flight routes gradually resumed, even Asia Airlines' big promotion has been restored.
I just miss the last trip of my student days.
Belonging to myself, a solo graduation trip in Thailand for half a month.
.
✈️Where do the 0 yuan plane tickets come from?
Asia Airlines has an annual promotion called "Asia Airlines Big Sale", during which fixed routes will offer discounted tickets and even free tickets.
0 yuan air tickets usually depart three months later.
I grabbed it in early September and chose mid-May of the second year.
Although it's a 0 yuan air ticket, fuel and taxes still need to be paid.
I bought a round-trip ticket from Chongqing to Bangkok, a round-trip ticket from Bangkok to Hua Hin, and the total cost for the four flights is 320 yuan.
I did not purchase separate luggage allowance and streamlined my travel equipment.
.
📍A very relaxing itinerary.
I have been to Chiang Mai, Bangkok and Krabi before, so this time I chose Bangkok and its surrounding areas, as well as the relatively unknown treasure island at that time - Koh Lipe.
Time is very loose and free, enjoy and say goodbye to the student era more often.
Bangkok stayed for 3 days, Pattaya stayed for 3 days, Ayutthaya stayed for 2 days, and Koh Lipe stayed for a full 7 days.
This is not a regular travel route, but it is my precious memory time.
.
🛏️Save money throughout the journey by staying in a youth hostel.
During the 15 days in Thailand, I stayed in hostels the whole time. Of course, I carefully selected them online before departure.
After actually living here, we are all very satisfied, whether it's hygiene, safety, or facilities.
I usually prefer a 4-person male dorm, with prices around 60 yuan.
The most expensive hostel I stayed at was by the Pattaya Beach, costing 110 yuan per night, and it was also the one with the best conditions, facilities, and location.
.
👩Met many interesting people.
Although I am a bit socially anxious, I have accidentally and fatefully met many interesting people along the way.
Will accompany for a day trip, will handle check-in, will have a small drink at night.
Listening to stories from all over the world, watching people with different faces and skin colors.
"Travel is so wonderful~ cheers!
.
🚉Transportation throughout the journey
Thailand has a really wide range of transportation options.
When I'm in the area, I like to rent a motorcycle and wander aimlessly, like in Bangkok and Pattaya.
A little further away, I will experience a local train ride, taking the train from Bangkok to Ayutthaya, and then crossing the river by small boat.
The farthest and most adventurous destination is to go to Libei Island. This mini island located at the border of Thailand and Malaysia requires a plane, a car, and a speedboat.
Non-stop riding for a day is required to reach the island, but only when you arrive can you feel the beauty of this "Thailand's Maldives".
.
📷How to take photos
Traveling alone, if you want to take photos, you need to use a good tripod.
At that time, I was using a very cheap entry-level Sony mirrorless camera and a $30 mini tripod.
Hang the tripod on a tree, a utility pole, or a step.
Use your phone to remotely control the camera for composition and shooting.
Record my every moment.
.
Traveling during student days is the real travel, and I increasingly feel that this statement is truly interesting.
When young, with not much gold in the pocket, every coin is utilized to its fullest value.
But with the most fearless courage, and the ambition to see the world.
May everyone keep their original dreams and aspirations, and continue to move forward.
