I have realised gin does not give me a hangover. That's brilliant news after I drank a bucket of it yesterday! Being back with the girls was so good! Everything is so chilled out, we aren't having to get up at silly o'clock and do things and be places! We were having a bit of a chill out day today. So we had a cheeky lie in, found an English bar and had a proper breakfast!! We took a little walk around and then decided all we really wanted to do was sit on the ...

Today without fail was the longest day in my 23 year history. Eventually after 3 buses and boat and a taxi and a lot of hours I was finally in Koh Phangan!! So the night before I had enquired about a price from Phuket to Koh Phangan. In true Thai fashion, they saw a westerner and made a price up on the spot.

Well today's blog entry is completely pointless. You have my permission to stop reading and come back tomorrow.. Last chance... Okay, your choice! Basically, I have done nothing today!

Turns out, Phuket town doesn't seem to have all ...

Given that I couldn't lay in bed still without winching in pain at the burns to my skin I figured sitting on the beach wasn't the best idea.. I decided to take a look around the island as it didn't appear to be to big and it meant I wasn't wasting a day. Okay so I looked at my map and figured if I walked along one side it would follow round the three beaches (to admire the views!) then I would be able to see the viewpoints and walk through the village where the...

This has to be one of the most beautiful places on earth. Sailing over on the boat you instantly knew when you were almost here. The water turned clear and the sand turned white.
