Troublefree Monkeys and troublesome snakes

I arrived in Krabi in the early evening, so just had time to get a Guesthouse, wonder around the night market and work out how best to get to Railay the next morning. Turned out it's really easy; all you need to do is rock up to the peer when you want to go, and when there's enough people, you...

Dodging tanks in Bangkok

Unbeknown to all of us trying to get some sleep in the back, the driver must have been in a real hurry to get to Bangkok. Maybe he knew something we didn't. But the upturn of all of this, was that rather than arrive in Bangkok at the relatively unreasonable hour of 7am, we got there at 4...

Cruising down the Mekong, Day 1

The bus journey from Chiang Mai to Chiang Khong was perhaps the funniest one yet. We were all picked up from our guesthouses and taken to the travel companies offices to get the Laos visa sorted there. As it was still only 1500 Baht I went with it. When we all got back on the minibus there...

Drinking moonshine with Jungle Jim

Before I'd left England, my Dad had given me a compass. My lack of directional sense is acute and well known, so as much as this was a bit of a joke gift, I think we both knew it was actually going to get a fair bit of use. And up till now, it had managed to keep me to roughly where I wanted...

One night in Bangkok

My flight only got in around 10pm, and by the time I'd got the bus into the city, it was too late and I was too tired to have a look around. It was funny enough to have 2 prostitutes standing there cooing at me as soon as I got off the bus. I quickly found refuge in my hostel, and looked into...

Goodbye Thailand

A long and arduous journey to Krabi involved a wide array of different modes of transport and an unwelcome rainstorm. This caused us to arrive, along with everything we owned, soaked to the bone. After a night in the main town we headed to the backpacker's haven of Railay Beach. The journey...

Puppies, Jumping Through Fire and Full Moon on Koh Phangan

Koh Phangan is known for the infamous full moon party, however after spending a week there it turns out that every night is celebrated like it is full moon. We'll spare you the finer details but here is a montage of our favourite parts: * Upon our arrival we immediately discovered that we...

Last Stop Chiang Mai

We are currently in Chiang Mai in the North of Thailand, and our adventures in this country are at an end. We really enjoyed the south for its people and beautiful scenery especially the beaches in Phuket, and Phi Phi Island! These two islands, especially the latter were hit hardest by the...

The Start of the Islands and a Deep Sea Adventure

We were pretty pleased with what we saw when we arrived in Koh Tao, a Paradise island complete with beautiful sunsets and beach side bungalows. After inital problems involving giant lizards inhabiting bathrooms, holes in thatched roofs and no power between 6am and 6pm which means waking up in...
