Samui has a place in my heart, for the wonderful people and place and music I have found here. Last night was dream like, and the moments of delight and bliss make me tempted to drop all and stay on, as many have done before. In the last few weeks ... Read more >

Back on Koh Samui in the Gulf of Thailand. The weather is perfect with light rain every now and then, so the heat of the season is cooled nicely. Sunshine in the morning and a comfortable room to get work done, an amazing friend to spend the evenings ... Read more >

I flew north to Chiang Rai, my favourite spot two years ago.

Ignoring the build up; that uncontrollable glee, to get back
on the road, I get to Auckland airport. On the plane, after finding the deal of
all deals for two bottles of some of my favourite vodka, and endure 12 hours to

glad I have a friend here to introduce me to the real side of the island life

I’m now in Bangkok, once again in a hurry to get out of the
hot smelly city. Last night I rode to the bus station on the back of Young’s

funny last night there, getting well ... Read more >

Yesterday I managed to catch up with a very cool crew of

I am surprised and disappointed here in Thailand. I think over
the years the numbers of friends who have told me I would love this place, they

Bangkok is exactly as crazy as I imagined it to be. Similar

attitude of its own mental functioning that makes it world renowned and
notorious for this style of nightlife and ... Read more >
