I've been reading a book called "Eat, Pray and Love" by Elizabeth Gilbert, it's currently an international bestseller and loved by the likes of Minnie Driver, Julia Roberts etc, basically it's a must read! Everyone, ok slight exaggeration, i've seen in the last month has this book - well the female gender! It's non fiction based on the authors account of her travels around India, Italy and Bali seeking spirtual guidance and as they say "to be at on...

Yep ok so I didn't get back to you within the week, but I think the pattern of my blogs showed that was bound to happen!

Our bus wasn't due until 8am, and starting to feel a little weary we found the nearest place to...

I'm back, and have a lot to catch up on! I really mustn't leave such a long gap between blogs. As you can see I have back dated this blog, to end in Singapore as I want to start a new entry for Australia. So last time I left you was back in Krabi, with the moonsoons!
