Hi,
If you had 6months+ from October onwards and wanted to do it on a budget (backpacking) where would you go, I want Brazil to be my first spot. Im going there no matter what but since multi stop flights can be had for cheap I wanna explore a little, where else would you suggest for budget, great life and good people.
Thanks

Flat water really, not looking for big waves spots but don't mind small waves.
Will definatly look at vietnam, mainly looking at asia and south american.
Thanks

Backpacking through Australia- ok on budget, save and a huge variety kiting wise.
hit me up if you need more infos.
I reckon Brazil is the best alternative. maybe spain (tarifa) very kewl kiting community, good food, bars and a lot of diverse beaches, conditions

'nam is definitely a good bet as it is super cheap with consistent winds and awesome food. however, i wouldn't head there until at least x-mas time. any earlier and the wind season may not have turned on yet.
borocay and elsewhere in the 'pines is a good bet for the winter months as well...

Cumbuco is a certainty for me,ill base my self there and travel the coast, ive checked out Mui Ne looks a really cool place. Like the idea of backpacking and kiting, done a little backpacking in asia before but want to go for longer this time and kite most days.
Cheers guys
