The Big Oh-Eee
I drank more Guinness than I have ever even SEEN in my life, but it would be rude to go to Dublin and not have one! Plus it was the cheapest drink in every pub which is the main reason we kept drinking it rather than switching to something else! ...

Australasia and South East Asia... a continuation on a toilet theme
Homogenity very much defines shopping in Thailand, and the floating market outside Bangkok was no exception. Repetitive photo album designs, countless fake Rolex's and wood-rounded candlestick holders abound, I must've seen them all in at least 50 di...

Thailand
The island isa like a cross between Phuket and Koh Phi Phi but to be honest, isn't as good as either... neither one or the other and therefore is a bit bland. Admittedly we have been completely spoiled by stunning beaches and we are sure that if we had...
