Koh Phangan: Journey to Koh Phangan was surprisingly smooth, we got a 1 and a half hour ferry where we met Jamie Wardle and Tom Francis on board and so spent the journey swapping stories from our trips and laughing at Steph's stupid comments about Thai peoples feet. amy's gay.Nat personally welcomed us to the island by shouting "Welcome to Koh Phangan b****es!" much to the other passengers bemusement.

Koh Tao: So the journey to Tao was interesting to say the least. Steph livened all of our spirits by throwing up into her cup, delicious, and trying to explain her situation to the bus driver so he would pull over but to no avail.

The cockroaches and constant fear of falling from our bunks was not anticipated and so arrived with a lack of sleep bordering on insanity. Amy made yet another enemy of a Thai worker, this time it was the orange j...
