Cam's Great Escapade
Sawatdeekaa mon amis. woo, the places we are visiting just seem to be getting better and better. At the moment we are literaly in a tropical paradise!! Well it is a bit rainy for a tropical paradise and at the moment there's actually a thunderstorm but apart from that its got it all, coconuts, hammocks, white sandy beaches, i think you could literally spend 100 days here without realising it.
After a horrificaly long bus journey (26 and a half hours solid) from Pai to Trat which is very near the Cambodian border we got onto the ferry for the island of Koh Chang. It looked kind of like King Kong island when we sailed up, its a huge foresty mountain with white sandy beaches on the very very edges and gurt lush. on the bus everyone kept going on about lonely beach which was apparently the best so we decided to go with the flow and follow them. We bypassed all the tourist beaches with family resort type places and found this amazing hotel called Treehouse Hotel which has little huts dotted amongst palm trees, out hut is on stilts and is literally less than a metre from the sea with a little balcony and a hammock that you can watch the sunset from. its so wondeful and we pay less than 1 pound a night. The main hotel is a huge deck thats also on stilts and goes right out over the sea so it feels like a huge unmoving boat which has hammocks and pillows everywhere so as you can imagine its very easy to spend all day lying around and eating. We have a little white sandy beach and some local Thai guy does fire shows in the evening. Everyone is really friendly and at night everyone joins together in a big drunken Sangsom party, I think Koh Chang is the best possible place to have a hangover. Anyway this place is too hard to describe, i think you should just all come here as soon as possible!
I dont have a damn camera so ill have to steal imogen photos of this place. we are off to india in 3 days, im so excited but terrified at the same time. its doubly scary thinking that the travelling is almost over, i know its a cliche but it literally flies by. but im really excited about seeing everyone again and just being normal again.
hope your all having a good summer, lots of love from camilla x x x x x
