I was going to call this post Empire State of Mind but then remembered you could sue in this country and Kanye West is a scary man. So maybe just say it in your head, listen to the song and know my intentions were good. We arrived at 4am after a hellish trip, I hadn’t […]
I love a good pun and the title of this post probably should have been “snow time like the present” but I’m also all about accuracy. How confused would you be if I called this post ‘present’ then went all throwback to last Friday? Yes very confused, accuracy is important. Now how about that throwback? […]
Okay, okay, okay, stop with all the photo pressure! I’m only in Japan, it’s covered in meters of snow, I’m with my best friend, more snow, animals, went skiing, yah know nothing much to share. Fine I see you’re point, it’s absolutely awesome and I’m having a blast! I’m so in love with snow. Some […]
Leaving Thailand to be reunited with my childhood friend and her brother (who I hadn’t seen in 10 years) was a pretty exciting prospect, but the 4 flights was pretty daunting and leaving Laura was pretty sad. Flight 1: Chiang Mai to Bangkok with Airport transfer! Flight 2: Bangkok to Manila, Philippines. This flight came […]
To experience a bit more of the country, as we’re adventurous types, Laura and I embarked on a 3 day trek through the Northern Hill Tribes with Tiger Treks. It had none of the bells and whistles like other tours (some include elephants and “white” water rafting) it was a biking and bamboo rafting trekking […]
Let’s take a trip down memory lane, so I can escape the boredom of waiting at an airport for check-in to open and you can escape the boredom of work, Yay! This trip will take us back to what you’d call last Tuesday and Wednesday and I’d like to call the-day-we-ate-continuously and the-day-we-saw-animals-the-size-we-were-after-eating-continuously, respectively. First […]
We flew with Asia Air, we know that their was a horrible and sad incident a few weeks back but the airline handled it very well at the time and everything appeared to be life as usual, don’t fret. However, for a 32 row plane 6 seats a row we sure did experience a lot […]
This beach destination is the opposite of the calm couple and family orientated beach of Lamai. Well, that guy (our friend) did call it the “Bangkok of Koh Samui”. He was not wrong, but he was not right either. It’s not that extreme just more people, resorts, younger party vibe, bigger beach, more stores, more […]
Well hello Bangkok, you had us once again for a whirlwind day. Familiar territory, it was odd being in a foreign country and recognising streets. Took a couple of goes to get used to the speedy escalators and a beer to get used to the heat of the food that I didn’t realise I’d been […]
We welcomed in the new year with an 8 hour bus ride starting at 7.30am through windy mountains on unmaintained roads. Tell me you’re jealous, the fry up, clean up and sleep in at home just doesn’t compare right? As we’d stuck to the no mix and drink sensibly rules we were all feeling pretty […]
