wah OP, the more i keep seeing how much it cost to travel to europe the more discouraged i feel. it just too damn pricey already

last time in 2018 saw like RM15k for one week doable in west europe. then as days goes then recently my kawan spent RM50k travel UK 1 month, another friend went canada 1 month also RM40k spent. now you go Svalbard RM30k ed

jesus i think ill stick to travel within Asia nia

Sometimes we have to think if we can do all these things when we are old. We are only young once and I don't want to have regrets of the things and places that didn't do or go

Money can always find back and earn again

fun facts:

Svalbard was the last place in Norway which German soldiers surrendered in ww2

There are more bears in Svalbard than people.

Wish TS a good trip. Always take walks with a fatty friend. U don't have to run faster than the bears...just run faster than that fatty tongue.gif

Not allowed to die in Svalbard. It's so cold, dead body can't even decay

brooo why so much sad.gif

Last year i went from london to longyearbyen only 1.5k ringgit return, on norwegian airlines

hotel was rm800 a night and i was only there 3 days and was bored out of my mind

how many days you staying there? group tour is it?
*
30k for 2 person. 3 days in longyearbyen and the rest of the week in Tromsø . Going to do tours in both places as well

I think the Tromsø tour will drive all the way to Finland. Also thinking of doing Ice Domes, but maybe won't.. doesn't seem as nice as Kiruna's Ice Hotel

really? is scandi countries more affordable?  hmm.gif

friend going switzerland soon and he said he broke RM10k already for 1 week there (granted SW is way more pricier)
*
Switzerland and scandi countries are the most expensive. There are ways to travel cheaply. Like sleep on the train overnight so don't need to pay for hotel. Buy food from supermarket.

Not sure how enjoyable if travel like that, but different people have different priorities

Think New Zealand should be quite hard to see as it is further from the south pole? It's quite hard to catch it even in the north

Seems like Tromsø got better chance of northern lights compared to Svalbard

Lucky you. How much for everything? If its within budget, im thinking of going somewhere but i feel like going to tibet and laying low with the monks would be cheaper than a day with a polar bear. But polar bears are more interesting as i can see some monks walking around barefoot where im at.
*
I fly from UK. Around £3k for 2 persons to go Tromsø and Svalbard. £1k flights, £1k hotels, £1k tours and excursions.

Can probably do with way less, but I am not on a tight budget though
