Detailing my adventures as I travel the world
Now that the most incredible 6 months of my life has unfortunately come to an end. I thought I would write a final post for the trip summarising my thoughts, feeling, recommendations, regrets and love regarding this truly astonishing part of the world. I’ve chosen to break the post down into various categories meaning you... Continue Reading →
After an amazing week on Koh Tao learning to dive and spending time on my favourite Thai island to date, we transferred to Koh Pha Ngan on 20th of Feb. This also happened to be the day of the famous full moon party. When we arrived on the island we checked into our hostel and... Continue Reading →
It’s safe to say since starting out on our travels I couldn’t wait to get to Koh Tao and go scuba diving. I’ve known about this little island in the Gulf of Thailand for a while now and its reputation as a scuba diving Mecca. I certainly wasn’t disappointed. The day finally arrived on the...

After Koh Lanta, we made our way to Krabi which was a 4-hour minivan ride away.

When we arrived in Pai we made our way to the hostel. The hostel itself was owned by the same people who ran the one we stayed at while in Chiang Mai, so we got a free night’s stay. Originally, we planned to stay in Pai for 3 nights but ended up staying for 4... Continue Reading →
Tuesday, we awoke after a nice lay in due to being pretty tired from the elephant sanctuary trip! Once again, we opted for a nice chilled out day around the pool, shock! That evening, however, we decide to head to the night bazaar for a wander around! Chiang Mai itself was now starting to get... Continue Reading →
