hello everyone! We have had a very tiring day, we went on a day tour to Phang nga bay, which has 68 islands, one of which is "james bond island!". Supposedly its where they filmed 'the man with the golden gun'. After a longtail boat ride through the mangrove forest, we stopped off and walked around james bond island, and got some good photos. Then we went sea canoeing which was great. The canoe tour went around the cliffs, and into some caves, for some...

All the dental student decided to be creative and body paint their chests with neon colours. It looked so good! Watch out for the photos.

Hello, just waiting at Bangkok airport for our short flight to Koh Samui. We cant wait for a week of sun, sand and sea. Yesterday, we went on a hilltribe trek which was great to see more of the countryside. We were invited inside one of the hilltibe shacks, which was very basic to say the least. After the trek and a bite to eat (made by the tribe), we went bamboo rafting. It was 4 people to one raft, so ally and i went with one of the rafting officials, and Bil...
