You would have thought that nothing is on time in Asia but when our pickup for the night bus to Vietnam was 40 minutes late we started to worry a bit! Luckily the hostel staff were right and there was 'no need to worry' and we didn't miss the bus. It seats were horrible but ours were better than some people as in true Asian style they had over booked the bus so some were on the floor for the 20hour journey!! We arrived in Ho Chi Minh City at about 11am and ...

After a crazy mini bus journey across Cambodia we arrived in Phenom Pehn. We got a tuk tuk journey across the city to another hostel recommended to us by the hostel in Siem Reap. The staff were friendly and we arranged a tour for the next day going to S21 Museum, the Killing Fields and Russian Market. S21 is now a Museum it used to be a school but when Pol Pot and the Kehmer Rouge became the rulers of Cambodia they turned it in to a prison and tortured thou...

He then gave us a brief history of Cambodia and started to say we needed to get money out in Thailand and exc...

The four of us went for food in Haad Rin next to the lads hostel, we all had a curry. Shock! We then met 3 girls th...

We touched down at Phuket airport around 2pm and got the shuttle bus that was said to take around 40mins to Phuket town, this was proven to be wrong as it took us around 2 hours to get there. We found a nice guest house and sat outside and had some beers, why not when they were less than a pound, something we could get use to. We didn't do much that night apart from get something to eat at a hotel. J had an opportunity to have his first real thai green curry an...
