C+SA budget, YOUR experience pleazee

[funklab]

I am trying to see what people end up spending on the road altogether when traveling through central and south america.

i plan on going all the way from mexico down to south america and cruisin around for a few months.

how much do you spend on food???
how much are cheap hotels???
what are gas prices like??? - i gather they are pretty cheap or at least similar to US is this true????
do i really need to skip colombia??? - like so many people do

i appreciate any and all advice, but especially advice from some old heads who have done it themselves...

DON'T include the quotes - if the quotes are put in the search box that means the EXACT phrase - so it did it exactly correct - found this thread.

Note that the search is only updated every 12 hours, so a post in the last 11:59 may or may not be included in the search, depending on the timing.

When I searched on:

budget central america

I got 205 hits.

See the Search Tips page - link at the bottom of every search, AFTER you have done a basic search.
