Well hi guys! I know I ain't wrote for a long time but come on it's been a year almost and i'm done with the diary thing, lol . I will still be putting photos and videos on here for yas to view but if I have anything to write about i'll just email yas or facebook it. Before I left Oz I went to see Bob Dyl and whale watching which was amazing . I am now in Phuket. From Oz I landed in Singapore and stayed a week, fantastic city with lots to do I highly recommend it (watch the lion dance video!) It's cheap to eat and sleep and there is so many things you can do or see for free or very little money. Afterwards it was on to Malaysia, first stop was a place called Mersing where we jumped onto a boat for a little island called Tioman. Truly paradise. Next was Kuala Lumpur, which I hated! It was hot, sticky, busy, dirty, . Although we did do some fantastic (free) things there it was just too full on and I couldn't wait to leave, lol. From Kuala Lumpur it was onto a town called Kuala Besut to get to a group of islands called the Perintians. Fantastic! Snorkel trip was prob the best i've ever done, food was cheap as but I got sunburnt with factor 30plus on sat under a brolly! I then went to Kotah Bahru in order to cross the border into Thailand. First stop was Koh Phi Phi (where the film 'The Beach' was made) It is over-rated, over-populated and i've been to better islands. So here we are I am now in Phuket and not sure where i'm off to tomorrow, but I have just applied to the elephant sanctaury in Chiang Mai where I am hoping to volunteer for 2 weeks before home, so won;t be long before i'm torturing ya all, ha ha ha. Take care, much love Ellie xxx
