After nearly missing our Bangkok - Singapore flight because our flight number & time had been changed without us being informed, I'm amazed to tell you that we did actually make it to Sydney in one piece and on time. However, that was after we endured a proper 'Home Alone' style sprint through Bangkok airport, with all of us just a little hungover & trying to run as fast as we could in flip-flops, with every item of our baggage strapped to our...

After a pretty horrible 16 hour journey, involving an overnight bus (where our backpacks got broken into down in the hold & I had my Maglite torch & ipod speakers stolen while I was peacefully sleeping upsatirs), we finally arrived in Phuket.
