£17 $30 indonesia
£25 $45 sydney
£19 $34 argentina
£18 $32 chilie
£19 $34 brazil

thanks guys

Indonesia & Thailand you shld be ok. I'm thinking hubby & I did $30 a day in Indo. for two, but then we stayed at $3-5 accomo.
thailand, we ate in the street in bangkok, 25 US cents for pad thai, etc. rooms were a bit harder to cost down b/c I wanted air con so I think we paid like $10 a night.

i'd say sydeny $45 is gonna be tough when you factor in accomo.& transpo

oh, and the above was late 2002 prices. don't know how much it's changed. Indo is soooo hurtin for tourism, you may get by cheaper.

haven't been to the others yet doing Chile in November! Good luck!

Argentina you should be okay. Buenos Aires is expensive compared to the rest of the country, though.

Argentina is cheaper than Chile these days. Australia seems too low.

yeah, australia is the one i'm worrying about, aaggh
