That was partly because UK apparel company Craghoppers pulled out of the U.S. market for a while. I\u2019m happy to say they\u2019re back in action at CraghoppersUSA.com and I\u2019ve been trying out some of their \u201cguaranteed for life\u201d rugged shirts and pants, many items treated with Insect Shield to keep the bugs at bay. They also make treated skorts, leggings, and other items for women too.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cheapestdestinationsblog.com\/2025\/06\/11\/craghoppers-clothing\/\">See my rundown here<\/a>&nbsp;and get 15% off if you click from there or&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/craghoppersusa.com\/TL15\">directly here<\/a>&nbsp;with code TL15.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>ZipAir for Cheap Japan Flights<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Via partner Kevin Kelly (and of&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.recomendo.com\/\">Recomendo<\/a>), we\u2019re getting reports of people finding crazy low flight prices to Japan on budget airline&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.zipair.net\/en\">ZipAir<\/a>. (They\u2019re so cheap the domain is zipair.net\u2014couldn\u2019t afford the .com!) Kevin says one friend got a $300 round trip from the USA West Coast to Japan and another found a round-trip deal for $276. Lie-flat business class flights can be as low as $1,408 from Los Angeles to Tokyo if you pull up the next few months of dates. The website looks like a Coding 101 school project and the contact info is limited though, so be sure to have travel insurance in place. And expect to pay add-on fees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>Travel Fee Avoidance for Canadians<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I often highlight tips for keeping transaction fees to a minimum while traveling, but I\u2019ll be the first to admit that USA citizens have a lot more options than those in most other countries. My blogging buddy Bri Mitchell covered the best steps for Canadians though in her Substack newsletter&nbsp;<em>The Weekly Traveler<\/em>.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/theweeklytraveller.substack.com\/p\/win-a-trip-for-2-to-turkiye-top-hacks\">Get the scoop here<\/a>&nbsp;on what she advises for travelers from Canada in terms of debit and credit cards on the road.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>Southeast Asia\u2019s Top Nomad Hub<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Chiang Mai has been the top digital nomad destination in Southeast Asia for about as long as people have been working remotely from a laptop. Bali was a close second, with Canggu especially getting plenty of transplants. James Clark of Nomadic Notes knows the scene in the region better than anyone though and his recent travels have convinced him that&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nomadicnotes.com\/da-nang-digital-nomad-hub-of-southeast-asia\/\">Da Nang in Vietnam is now the champ<\/a>.
