So we arrived in Boracay on the 20th Feb, once we got off the plane we had to get a half hour coach ride then a boat then a mini bus to our place where we were staying for 2 nights ( we felt like we was backpacking then as it was the most we have had to carry our bags since we arrived) , our place was on the other side ( the kite surfing side ) of island but only a 10 min walk to white beach. The first day we got up and the surf beach was mad there were so many ...

We left Cebu's crazy city on the 13th and headed to the other side of the island the west coast, to a small town called Moalboal.

So this morning we got up early for our day trip to Bohol, it is a 2 hour boat trip from Cebu city dock, we met our driver for the day as we got off the boat.

Next we headed to the chocolate hills but this time of the year are called green hill as the grass is o...

On arrival to KL we jumped in a taxi to our hostel, we didn't arrive there until 23:00 but it was still buzzing, the reggae mansion aka the party hostel. So we checked in and headed straight up to the roof top bar/club waheeey, and yeah about 3hrs and a few cocktails later we went to the room and crashed out. ...

So we arrived in Christchurch and have to say we are shocked how little is here for a city, they are basically rebuilding the city due to the earthquake which happened here feb 2011. There seems to be so much more poverty here than anywhere else we have visited in NZ. On arrival we followed signs for the city centre and we never seemed to find it as there is nothing here other than a small mall and building sites, there are some restaurants but nothing seems to...
