Hello Again! We just got the last bus back to Bangkok from the little town of Pak Chong so got back to the apartment at around midnight. Today has been an adventure! We did the day tour trip from our guesthouse to Khao Yai national park. It was raining when we set off but we hoped it would clear up later in the day. Our first stop inside the park was to visit a waterfall that was used in the filming of 'The Beach'. Because of the rain the water was muddy but th...

We have just got back from Ko Chang. We stayed there 4 nights and had a really good time.

We did an elephant trek for over an hour in the jungle of the islands interior. We also got to sw...

Kuala Lumpur wasn't quite as nice. Our hostel was a bit dirty, a rat was spotted in the kitchen. thankfully we ate out ...

Hi Everyone, just a short note to say that we are now in Asia. We have been in Singapore for the last couple of days, getting used to the hot and humid weather. It was national day the other day so we enjoyed the celebrations - lots of fireworks, plane and boat displays etc. We are crossing the border into Malaysia tomorrow, and will stay there for about a week before getting a train to Bangkok. From there we hope to head north to Chang Mai and Chang Rai. Its...
