Hi, Chang Mai- In order to go to Chang Mai, I had to get an overnight bus. As I had already booked it, I headed back to Ko San rd to catch my bus. People make me laugh, as soon as they saw my ruk sac I was harrassed- you need somewhere, where you going. I had this every step of the way. After chilling out and having a drink I got on my bus. Met a couple of people on the bus to have a chat too. Sadly I was sat behind some French people. They were drunk and one...

Breakfast is definately a huge culture thing as the idea of having noodles for breakfast is not very appealing to me. Yesterday Darren and I went to Monk...

Hi Guys， Sooooo our last night in Xi'an, we were off for a Dumpling Banquet. The resturant next door was a place that specialised in this, so it was nice we didn't have too far to go. There were over 18 courses of dumpling and you really needed to keep a steady pace or you wouldn't have any room for the next course. They did fried, boiled or stemed dumpling each with different flavours. They would arrive with 3 or 4 courses together in there little bamboo styl...
