Koh Phi Phi After a quick trip to Phi Phi on a day tour from Koh Lanta, we already had a good understanding of the Lay out of Phi Phi. I was so glad to get off the boat after feeling sick the whole journey and just wanted to sit down. Finding accommodation on this island is a nightmare at the best of times and cheap places don't exist, so East & Simon set off to see what they could find.

Blog 15 - Ao Nang/Railay We agreed to meet up with Easton and Fay in Ao Nang on route from Cambodia. We were really looking forwarded to catching up with them and spending the next few weeks chilling in the sunshine! Ao Nang is not a big town so we decided to spend just one night there before catching the long tail boat over to Railay the following morning.

Since our last blog post we have done so much that we will need to split it into two entries. 1: We left Bangkok on the over night sleep train to Chiang Mai - a new experience for both of us. There were 4 people to a cabin and we were together with 2 German guys out in SE Asia for 2 months. The train took approximately 12 hours and within 30 ...
