Koh Phi Phi in a sentence: Pronounced Pee Pee and never fails to make me smile each time we say it. After our amazing liveaboard trip we got a free transfer to Phuket town. We drove past all these nice hotels that other people from our trip were getting dropped off at, with ours being the last of the trip. We pulled down some dark and dirty road hoping that it was a side street to get to where we were staying but unfortunately this was indeed where we are stay...

Having experienced the road before, and after working our way around SE Asia for a bit we found ourselves to be seasoned professionals in shrugging off the persistent Thai people trying to sell us stuff we really don't n...

Nha Trang in a sentence: A much warmer Moscow. Despite saying we would never get the sleeping bus again, this bus was very luxurious - leather reclining 'bed' seats, wifi, A/C. The driver was much more professional with less honking of the horn, no stopping along the road to pick up random locals and letting them sleep on the floor! And the main thing was that it only took 12hours like specified so we were very happy :). However, Curt still didn't manage to grab...
