The adventure tour begins!

Khao Sok, Thailand


But first...a whole day of travel. We had to take a van (cue bad karaoke) to Bangkok airport (where we said goodbye to project leader Claire and, randomly, met her mum) and an internal flight south to Phuket, followed by another van journey to Khao Sok National Park and our accommodation, Art’s Riverview Lodge. We just had time for an orientation, where we met our hilarious adventure tour leaders Steph and May, as well as the two other volunteer groups we’d be touring with, making 26 of us altogether: they’d been volunteering at the Gibbon project and Elephant Nature Park.
Our accommodation was a real jungle lodge, surrounded by thieving monkeys and impossible to find at night without a torch! Lauren, Sarah and I were lucky enough to share one of the rooms with an open-air bathroom and a freezing cold waterfall-style shower. But who cares if it’s cold, it’s a waterfall shower!
