After over a week of madness and non-stop partying at Nice Beach resort, it all got a bit too much for Louise and I. We decided to spend a bit of time out together at another resort called Long Beach, a few kilometres away.

I've seen Hostel, and insisted that he take us somewhere a bi...

So, after 2 very stressful days of packing and storing just about everything I own, I just about made it in time for my flight to Bangkok. I flew with Johannah, one of many friends who are coming out here for a holiday.  She's been here a few times, so it was nice to have someone show me the ropesI arrived last night and in the last 24 hours I've done loads already.
