Spending the winter in Thailand and the Philippines with a kid

Our blog is for those who dream of spending the winter with a child in Thailand, Vietnam, the Philippines**, or other Southeast Asian countries. During the winter of 2017-2018, we spent an unforgettable 4 months in Thailand (**Phuket, Koh Lanta, Cha-Am, Bangkok**) with our 6-month-old baby. To handle visa matters, we took an exciting trip to Singapore and Malaysia (Kuala Lumpur). In November 2018, we headed back to Thailand, exploring the northern regions (**Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai**) with a stop in Pattaya. From there, we set off to conquer the Philippines, where over 2 months we visited the islands of **Bantayan, Cebu, Panglao, Bohol, Siquijor, Negros (Cadiz City, Dumaguete, Bacolod), Panay (Iloilo)**, and of course, relaxed on Boracay. To wrap up the trip, we spent a few days in the capital, Manila.

In March 2019, we spent 3 weeks road-tripping through hospitable Georgia. Unable to sit still, we visited not only Tbilisi but also Kazbegi, Borjomi, Kutaisi, and the most unusual town on our route, Chiatura. In 2020, due to the global situation, we embarked on our first car trip across Russia! Over the next 3 years, we drove through most of the North Caucasus and explored Karelia in detail. In 2022, we spent the spring and part of the autumn on the Anatolian coast of Turkey. After visiting Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and India, we settled in for the 2023 winter in Vietnam. We rang in 2024 in Serbia, and currently, we are living in Albania.

On this site, we meticulously collect useful information, interesting facts, and reflections from our independent travels. We lead by example to show how budget-friendly Asian travel can be, offering **money-saving tips** even for the most expensive places on the planet. If you have a question we haven’t covered or an interesting proposal, feel free to email us at: ad@tipstrips.ru, and we will do our best to help! =)
