Thailand Dec 2005 - Jan 2006 with my cous Sheri

Today started with my cousin Sheri taking her first ever plane flight - the 45min journey from Newcastle to Brisbane. She made it! Yay! So once she arrived we got increasingly excited and couldn't wait for our midnight flight to Phuket via Singapore. G...

 

The Far East 2006

We have now safely arrived back into the UK after a gruelling 15 hours on the plane and 3 hours transfer. I can't believe its been 5 weeks!! It has flown by but has been soo good we will telling our stories for many weeks to come. So the last few d...

 

Around the world...

Arriving in Dalat was a bit odd as it is right up in the Highlands and is about 10 degrees cooler than we have been used to. We had a great couple of days there. The town is pretty quiet but there are some great waterfalls and lakes in the area around ...

 

South East Asia 2007

Dalat is a flourishing market town up in the Central Highland hills halfway down Vietnam. We were only here a short time but went on a city tour day trip to see some of the local sights. This involved places such as waterfalls, a buddhist temple an...

 

Weltreise 2006

In Darwin checken wir in Chillis Backpacker Hostel ein. Unser Plan, die Westkueste entlang zu reisen, platzt innerhalb einer Minute, da zwischen Darwin und Broome alle Strassen ueberschwemmt sind und es auch zwischen Broome und Perth sieben Zyklone gab...

 

Thailand

The next stop on our list was Krabi town, so we got a bus journey there, we arrived at the bus station, which wasn’t too pleasant and went straight to the tourist information to find out where to go. As we traveled through Krabi, it didn’t look any thi...

 

Island Life in Thailand, 2006-07

Coconut Cocktails, Limestone cliffs and Underwater Wonders in Thailand It has been just four days since we got back, and already images of our wonderful two weeks in Thailand feel like distant memories. However it is highly unusual that a two week...

 

Southern Hemisphere Safari

Came down to Floriano for a weeks relaxation on the beatiful brazilian beaches! Checked into the only hostel recommended in the "book" to find we were in the middle of nowhere with a bunch of hippies in a room stinking of damp with no money! ...

 

Asia 07

After almost 3 months since my final trip away from the UK, I finally managed an escape from London life thanks to my cousin's wedding back in Colombo. Unfortunately our stay in Sri Lanka was short, and consisted mainly of family related activities ...

Thailand 2005

After Krabi, it was back to Bangkok for my sister and I. We would meet our mum there (she flew back from London). We did mostly sightseeing and shopping. I have to point this out to you: The Dome on the State Tower! It's fabulous. It's right on top ...

 

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...

 

Goodbye Edinburgh, Hello World

Well, apparently our time is nearly up and we're having to return to dear old Blighty very soon. Life's a beach, isn't it? Well it has been for us recently, anyway. We've been in Thailand for around two months now. It's the kind of place where nothi...

 

Thailand - December 2006

We arrived 6:00am in the morning in Koh Tao. Had a good sleep as well, so we only had to find accommodation before we can hit the road and explore. After stopping at about 4 places, we got to Sea Shell Resort, and got some nice bungalows. We imme...

 

Malaysia and Thailand 2003

Rachel and I set off on our summer trip after 1st year of Uni for 4 weeks in Malaysia and Thailand. Much fun was to be had with the highlights including beautiful beaches, the full moon party where we met nat, getting dreads, thai boxing, dodgey transp...

 

Thailand 2006

I took a boat from Ko Tao to Ko Phangan with Sarah, Jane and Mel. I am glad we left Ko Tao when we did as we went through some pretty big clouds bewteen the two islands and was told that it was pouring down in Lo Phangan just before we arrived. Some of...

 

Round the World Trip 2006/07

After all these years of 'one day planning to go in the future'....I made it across the world to the world down under. We are spending 3 months in this lovely country and had to apply for a 3 month holiday visa to be able to do so. Personally, I fo...

 

Phuket - A Year After Tsunami...

We were suppossed to go to Bali, but due to the second bombing incident and some miscommunication with our tour agent, we ended up at Phuket, which was still trying hard to recover after the Tsunami hit. Honestly, I don't like Phuket - it's expensiv...

 

Thailand

Thailand, could you ask for a more beautiful place? We had a ball here, enjoying the last few weeks of our holiday before we hit NZ. ...

 

Europe and Asia Extravaganza 2006

Hi! I have skipped over this entry temporarily. I have someone anxiously waiting on news about Ireland. I will come back to it as soon as I can. Best wishes from Yangshuo, China, Tiff...

 

Thailand Island Hopper

Today we went for a long tour. It began well riding ATV's. This stands for 'All Terrain Vehicle' and is just a large quad bike. I had a couple of cool laps pushing it as fast as I dared and making my new fake Diesel shirt rather dirty. Rather more dirt...

 

Thailand

We left Phi Phi Island and arrived at Krabi on the mainland where we got a taxi (some guy with a truck) to Ao Nang where we then had to get a longtail boat to Railay where we were staying. We didn't realise that Railay isn't accessible by road, only bo...

 

The Eastern Odyssey

One never knows how much power one has until one realizes the extent to which one can corrupt or protect. Yes. Protect. As foreigners, our power is far vaster than that of a regular Chinese professor for we possess the knowledge of true American Sla...

 

Gap Year 2004

Me and Deaj organised to take a couple of days off work and head out to the Blue Mountains for a bit of fresh air. James really enjoyed his trips there, so it really had to be done. We shot over on a train to Katoomba, one of the larger towns in th...

 

RTW with Steph and Dion

Written by Dion August 11-12, 2006 We decided to spend a couple of days in Uruguay, so we boarded the 9:00AM Buquebus ferry from Buenos Aires, Argentina to Colonia del Sacramento, Uruguay on Friday morning. The ferry itself was quite nice and the rid...
