So this is it, we've come to the end of our adventure. So this is what we've been up to for the last week........ We left Ko Tao last Wednesday on a safe boat. We then had a 9 hour bus ride to Bangkok and arrived there at 9pm. As usual we were mobbed by taxi men but at least we knew we were heading to Ko San Road (the backpacker part). When we arrived it was buzzing with bars, restaurants and stalls that sell absolutely anything. We found a guesthouse which...

Since our last update, we've been island hopping. We started in Ko Samui the biggest of the 3 islands. We stayed at the beach resort of Lamai. We managed to find ourselves a cheap little bungalow and they even put a TV in for us. We ended up 5 days there and basically spent all our time on the beach. The weather was lovely and we had a good few days there. Of an evening there was plenty of bars and restaurants but it wasnt OTT like Phuket. After this, we w...

We left Penang last Saturday and took a 5 hour train ride to Hat Yai in Thailand. We spent the night there before leaving for Krabi the next day. We experienced our first tuk tuk ride to the bus station. We then took a 5 hour scary bus ride to Krabi where we listened to Thai music all the way. You have not experienced bad driving until you have come to Thailand thats all we can say!! We spent 2 nights in Krabi Town but as there isnt a beach near the town the...

How wrong could we be! It was set back from the road and looked as if it was about to fall down. There was loads of gawping men and no other backpackers about. There was a dog that looked like it had rabies or something. We thought we'd give it a go though but las...

We got the bus up from Singapore on Thursday and reached Kuala Lumpar after a six hour bus ride. We were greeted off the bus by a swarm of taxi drivers all wanting to give us a ride. As we didnt have a clue where we was, we jumped in one. We were later to learn that we were only 3 minutes from our hostel and he'd simply drove around the block a few times. He also overcharged us, it was only 4 pounds but we were later to learn it should of cost under a pound. ...
