Got up at 10:30 and got ready (packed etc..) then headed out and got a bus to the boat station. Waited for the boat, then off to koh Tao!! Got onto the island just past 3, and got a taxi (open ute) out to our hostel. I wasn't keen at first as it seemed really far from town, but the rooms were kinda cool, and the common area was a sweet open but thing with a tv and loads of downloaded movies. Went out for food with soph and joe (met at hostel), then went to the ...

Woke up after an amazing night out at arc bar. Was planning to take the bikes back, but it was s***ting it down so read my book for a while.

Met Corinne downstairs, and we (me soph and her) booked travel to koh Tao tomorrow. Me and soph went for breakfast, and I was planning to read my book on the beach for the day, but started raining ra...

So decided to go there. Got a taxi/bus thing to the ferry port an booked our tickets, only 200 (~£4) baht each, which I thought was very reasonable. Got i...

Woke up 3 in a bed, but ok as the ac was working well :-) at 1 I went and got my laundry and noticed the laundry place rented motorbikes, so I got one, finally a fully manual. It was a dirt bike which was fun a I've never ridden one of those before :-D Rode out for the day, found an amazing deserted beach to practice my poi, but my shoulders got tired quickly after yesterday! Wandered for a bit and asked at a kitesurfing place if they did windsurfing, he explai...
