I arrived in Singapore just before Christmas only spending 2 nights there just to get a little taster. I really enjoyed it here, very clean, modern and efficient transport systems. It also have stunning architecture which was even more impressive at night. Some people I've spoken to found it a little too sterile with all the rules but I felt safe and enjoyed my time there. I mean if you like shopping, eating and drinking, I'm pretty sure you'll have fun here. I s...

The night before I was to arrive in Ko Phi Phi I stayed in the VERY small town of Krabi when I was meeting Amelia (closest uni friend) in the morning. The town was so small and everything shut really early but managed to amuse ourselves with eating street stall food and playing the card game s*** head!

You know it's going to be bad when they hand out sick bags before the boat has even left the harbour. I thought i'd be fine "Pahhh sea sick....yeah I don't get that," OH HOW WRONG I WAS! Yup I s...

So I headed to Bangkok on the overnight train from Chiang Mai, I originally only planned on being here 2 days maximum but with all the drama going on over the government protests in both of Bangkok's airports, everyone was grounded here and couldn't get out! So because I had no set plans I stayed around to be with Vicki, Thais, Bruno, Jen, Dave, Jay, Camby and Emily who'd I'd be on the trip with and we had fun causing havok round Bangkok including Patpong night m...
