CAMBODIA | Tuesday, 13 Jan 2009 | Views [826]

THAILAND | Friday, 9 Jan 2009 | Views [1109]

It took 2 buses, 4 taxis, a boat, and 20 hours for us to travel from Chiang Mai to our last destination in Thailand - Koh Chang. It probably wasn't the best of itinerary choices, but we were committed thanks to our Bangkok travel agent. Fortunately ... Read more >

THAILAND | Friday, 26 Dec 2008 | Views [1081] | Comments [1]

Chiang Mai is a great city. The old part of town is surrounded by a large moat and remnants of an old defense wall. We walked most of it in a day, enjoying different foods, researching our outdoor recreation opportunities, and taking in the sites.... Read more >

Again, the small islands prove to be my favorite. Koh Tao lived up to the hype with its friendly locals, great rock outcroppings, numerous dive sites, and plastic bottle recycling!!! We even managed to squeeze in some bad movies (Sex in the City and ... Read more >

Hello from sunny and laid back Koh Pha Ngan. Things here in the Gulf of Thailand are starting to pick up after a rough start. Our time on Koh Samui was somewhat spoiled by another stomach bug. This time it was Sebastian doubled-over in pain. He's nearly ... Read more >
