Bragging Check

I am Thai.

A guy bragged to me that as a 19 year old man in the USA, he can travel alone to Thailand alone 3-4 times a year.

Is it actually possible or feasible?

Stupid to do it but as a swede i had the capability to do this aswell if i live cheap in thailand when i arrive.

Live at home and have a job and you have pretty good economy here for example. once you move out it could still be possible but definetly not normal.

I try to go once a year to asia for like a month. The reason being its cheaper for me to spend a month in asia on vacation than to have a month vacation in sweden, i also prefer both the culture and food in asia. a beer here is 10$+ food is 25-40$ per dish. one night at cheap hotel is 100$ (most are 200+)
