It’s possible to find lots of free camping in the US - we struggled to find hotels, down the east side, lately below $90.

In eastern US all land is private and if you camp on someone's property you may be booted out in the middle of the night by a bunch of slightly drunk well armed rednecks.. discretion advised. It is legit to camp free on National Forest land as long as you don't start fires and there are other opportunities parking lots, etc.. here's a couple good sources/locators

Hey I was just doing research the other day on getting from Thailand to India (crossing Myanmar). The guys from the youtube channel "North and Left a Bit" used a guide service osugamyanmartravel.com. It was like $400 for 5 days as long as you go in a group and hotel is included. Seems like it could be cheaper and less hassle than air freight from India to Thailand (more fun too).

Their Myanmar leg was done mid 2019 and borders have since closed. The tour company they used is Myanmar Senses Family (Zawmin Tun is the contact).

Zawmin advised me last week that the Myanmar/Thailand borders are open but not the Myanmar/India border crossings (the Tamu/Moreh crossing being the most used by the group).

I'm waiting on the Myanmar/India border to reopen then I'll head off RTW from Sydney. Otherwise, if it's going to take forever then I'm looking over the top through China then down into Nepal/India (but that's a pretty expensive option). An alternative is to fly the bike and you from Thailand to Kathmandu.
