Hi everyone! Im now in Hongkong writing this in a trendy cafe! My 2 weeks with the girls was very much a holiday! Not moving on every couple of days was strange at first but i soon settled into do nothing on a beach mode - its not that hard! I met Alex and Nicole in Bangkok and we headed straight to Koh Tao down south. We got to Hat Sariee the next morning - a fun beach with lots of cool bars and cafes with comfy floor seating. We soon found our favourite cus...

Aw! The rest of the d...

We are both sad to be leaving each other but we've had a great time and almost every day has brought memories that we won't forget (for good and bad reaso...

Hi All, Bangkok, 27th April - 3rd March We were grounded in Bangkok slightly longer than hoped as I (Alex) came down with a bit of fever and had to stay in bed for 2 days, seem to have recovered perfectly fine now though! Our first stop was Khao San Road, Bangkok's version of Camden, plenty of dodgy market stalls and traders out to make easy money of you. It's a good place to pick up bits like sandals, wallets etc on the cheap. After this we moved a street aw...
