Hi all! I am now in Koh Phangan! Spent a night in Chaweng in Koh Samui at an amazing guesthouse called AKWA which was decorated with Pop Art all over the walls and is like someone's bedroom. The manager was a crazy pissed gay guy who has adopted a 10 year old Thai boy and told me all about his ex boyfriend problems within seconds of meeting me (he did make me a very large free cocktail to make up for it!) Had a chilled out night at a Mexican restaurant/bar and wa...

I am staying at a beautiful resort (thanks to Paula) and have already made friends with the only other apparent resident who is a Belgium man with a mullet and who wears the shortest shorts I have ever seen!! Went to the beach today which was beautiful and have discovered that I am actually not ver...

In fairness I have been very good and have not moaned once yet so I think I am allowed! Anyway it is our last day in Siem Reap before we leave for Bangkok. There was torrential rain this morning and we visited some more temples and got absolutely drenched (just wanted to make you all feel bet...

Hi all! Well it has been an exhausting few days both physically and emotionally! Our last day in Phnom Pen was really quite depressing as we went to see the S21 prison where thousands of Cambodians were tortured under the Khmer Rouge. It was awful seeing the tiny cells and the conditions the prisoners were kept in and there were still drops of blood on the ceiling! (Typical scene examiner I was thinking about testing it with H+!!) We then went to see the Killing...
