Sample backpacker budget - Ubud, Bali

I kept a record of my spending for one week in Ubud and thought it might be useful for other travellers who haven't yet been to Indonesia but are trying to work out a budget.

This is a detailed budget - so, sorry if it gets tedious...I really broken it town for the first few days, then lumped all my food costs in together...

My average per day for the week was AU$21 a day.

Day 1
internet 3,000
lunch 18,000 (I eat the cheaper foods at your average tourist restaurants...you could do cheaper by eating at food stalls...)
dinner 30,000
massage 70,000
room 60,000 (basic room at homestay - with hot water and breakfast),
water 3,000
soap 3,000
toilet paper 1,000
TOTAL: 187,000

Day 2
Birthday card 12
Postage 41
Breakfast 11
Lunch 13
DInner 25
Motorbike hire 35 (for one day)
scissors/batteries/porridge 90
internet 6
room 60
TOTAL: 293,000

Day 3

TOTAL:129,000

Total: 138,000

Day 5

credit for phone 100
room 60
Total: 290,000

toilet paper and toothbrush 7
room 60
Total: 110,000

Day 7
Room 60

Total: 127,000

I don't do trips or drink alcohol...so these would have to be added to your budget if you wanted them.

Hope this list is of use to someone!!
