cash

Not many people have mentioned the amounts of money needed for a RTW trip, I know you could do it in style in 5 star accom but I'm thinking along the lined of the budget traveller camping when possible and cheap hotels.
I'd like it if a few people gave me budget ideas o how much to budget for and also how much cash needed to take on you incase of no banks.
Ideas would be welcomed, I don't want to blast everything I have, either do I want to run out half way!

My average daily expense in Asia was about $15. For more exact information about each country have a look on my website: www.katharina-unterwegs.de. Additional there are costs for spareparts, repairing, new tyres, shipping and flights.
I used cash in Iran, Laos, Combodia and Japan. But for Laos and Cambodia I got Baths in Thailand at a ATM and used them there. I always have few hundreds of Dollars cash usually in small bills for changeing with other travellers, paying visas and have some "tips"
