<human>: Can you give me the gist of the text in a nutshell?

So, I have a working holiday visa for Australia.  The overall plan is to fly to Melbourne, travel up the east coast and settle in Brisbane.

Since I'm going to be down in that part of the world, I would love to go visit SE Asia as well.  The only problem is that by the time I make it to Brisbane, I'm going to be very low on funds.  So the idea is that I will work and save for ~6 months, which means beginning traveling around May.

Of course..this is the start of monsoon season for the peninsula.  So my question is (also
<bot>: )....how shitty is it if I was going through Cambodia, Vietnam, Laos, etc. May-June-July?
