We left Samui in a blur, nights out having fun, and with
Rachel it’s always maximum fun! Sent off by her closest friends and some hilarious
antics, we blearily made it to the ferry early morning on Sunday, watching
sunrise as we cruised in the direction ... Read more >

Koh Samui is a place I am glad I came to see, and I’m very
glad I have a friend here to introduce me to the real side of the island life
here. Rachel has been here since August, working and living and loving the life
here. I arrived on the ferry after ... Read more >

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
bike, a vivid sky sending me from the beauty and peace in Chiang Rai. I had a
funny last night there, getting well ... Read more >

It is so hard to write about chiang rai, where to start? I almost want to keep it all to myself :) This last week has been beyond anything I could have wished for. Welcomed fully by the whanau at the peace house, such a cruisy wonderful mix of people.... Read more >

My first night in Chiang Mai was an adventure. Having left
Pai on such a great note, a night out with live Jazz straight from Chiang mai,
falangs joining in and jamming with the band, then a live reggae band which was
fun, dancing around with beautiful ... Read more >

Yesterday I managed to catch up with a very cool crew of
people to go on missions around and about Pai for the day. Two English lads;
Gareth and Bill on their pretty pink scooter made a cute couple, Rune the funny
Dane zooming along the straight ... Read more >

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
instilled in me a sort of expectation, the sort no traveler should ever take
with them on the road.... Read more >

Jandals are the trusty footwear owned by many, and
underrated for their common status. In many countries they are exploited, over
used during the hot parts of the year, and in all kinds of terrain, by all

Bangkok is exactly as crazy as I imagined it to be. Similar
to places in Beijing, Shanghai and Hanoi, but it has this knowledge and
attitude of its own mental functioning that makes it world renowned and
notorious for this style of nightlife and ... Read more >

Cambodia has become an inspiring experience for me. On Friday we met up with Kiwi born, half
Cambodian, Peap Tarr, who is living in Phnom Penh. He is a sick artist, and
through mutual friends we managed to connect dots and arrange a catch up. His
crew ... Read more >

We are now in Vang Viene. It’s a wee bit sticky at 6 in the evening, and there’s large winged insects annoying us. The room is simple and we are relaxing on the veranda watching the sky turn colors, when we first got here under an hour ago the day ... Read more >

What a stunning place. Very posh in some respects, thriving
on tourism from France, as this place is teeming with French money, buildings,
people and history. The streets are few and the layout of the town is very
simple along the banks of ... Read more >

The morning was rushed but relaxed and pretty laid back
running to and fro trying to sort ourselves out, turns out the 8.30 delivery to
the boat showed us the boat is fully stocked – though expensive – and that we
had plenty of time to wait. Me ... Read more >
