Is Phuket Worth Visiting as a Backpacker? Thailand Party & Explore Vlog

BACKPACKING THAILAND EPISODE 19 PHUKET

Phuket is the largest island in Thailand and is hugely popular with tourists from across the world. But is it suitable to visit for backpackers? In this episode, I visit Phuket for the very first time. I stayed at Bear Packer Hostel in Patong, went partying on Bangla Road (attended my very first Ping Pong show!), went to the famous Backpacker Bar, explored lots of beaches including Banana Beach, Nai Thong beach and Freedom Beach. I finished my time in Rawai Beach and went to the Let's Work Co-working Space.

FAQ's
How do you afford to travel? - I now earn a full time living through creating these YouTube videos, affiliate links, selling digital products and my clothing line. I used to simply just work any temporary job I could find to save up to travel! I budget the money I earn meticulously to reach my savings goals using https://www.backpackingbananas.com/product-page/life-budget-tracker-uk-self-assessment-version
Is travelling solo safe? - I would argue the answer is almost always yes! As long as you use your common sense and you follow your own government's guidelines about travelling in that country. I have made several videos on backpacking safety on my channel.
Do you have plans to settle down? Yes, I'm currently saving to purchase my first property in the UK and I'd love to have children one day. I doubt I'll ever live a completely 'conventional' lifestyle by society's standards though, as I often have my own preferred way of doing things.
