I spent my last week in Koh Phagnan. The weather wasn't always amazing but I spent the week sunbathing between showers and partying. Also managed a day trip around the island. I am back in Bangkok now after 14hrs of travelling, and I am heading to South Africa this afternoon. Got another 30hrs travelling ahead of me so wish me luck.

In the evening we went out for dinner at an all you can eat, cook it yourself buffet, which turned out to be a mistake as 2 out of the 4 ended up with food poisoning. Luckily I was...

Unfortunately, when we arrived on Koh Tao, the weather was miserable, and we were all shattered so most of the day was spent sleeping. It was one of the girls, Izzys, birthday, so I took her out for a massage, and then we went out for a yummy Mexican meal, which made a nice change from the rice and noodles!The next day we saw a little more of the island, but unfortunately it was still cloudy. Whilst 2 of the girls did diving, me, Izzy and Charlie sorted out our a...
