Ok, so I realised it's taken me a long while to update this blog, so I apologise to my avid readers. So Singapore, our journey down to was very comfortable, the further south you go the more western Asia becomes and the more affluent it is. Like all our journeys its wasn't plain sailing, when we were filling out our entry forms at the border crossing this man approached me and started asking me questions about where I was from, and of course like anywhere in As...

So we arrived in Kuala Lumpur (KL) and was dropped off at the Central station, but we had no idea where we were, later we found out we were just down the road, but like any tourist we hailed a cab to get us to our hotel. Our hotel is in the heart of Chinatown, next to the market, so trying to lug our backpacks through this was amusing as my bag is bigger than me. We were staying in the Hotel Chinatown Inn, which was nice, staff not so happy but i can deal with ...

Yet again we had a semi painless journey down to Penang, Malaysia. The further south we get the less stressful they are getting.

We also bumped into the two Swedish guys from our Phi Phi trip at a service station and then at the border. We arri...

So on the 20th November, we got the early boat over to Krabi, Ao Nang beach. The boat was a speed boat that took about 1.45mins. Jess has started to concur my fear of boats, we sunbathed at the front of the boat, i was only a little bit paranoid about falling off, Jess on the other hand managed to fall asleep. The views on the boat were breathtaking. We arrived at our guest house, named KL guesthouse, the room was nice and clean, we opted for a fan room as it w...

So i'll carry on from Chiang Mai, so the night of Tiger Temple we ate at the worst resturant, The food was awful, the live music was awful, it was full of middle aged men with Thai women, women used losely, as many of them weren't, so we ate and left. We wandered around the night market which was HUGE, bought some undescript meat on a stick, dumplings and waffles to make up for the poor dinner we had. The following day was adventure trekking. We had to sneak out ...
