Paradise?? Maybe...
... moved from place to place so much recently, to stay on the same island for an extended period was certainly welcome. The journey to Ko Lanta seemed to take an eternity with two buses, two car ferries and an extended wait at a travel cafe after there was ...
Days 28 and 29 - Ko Phi Phi
Our last few days in Ko Phi Phi were spent generally lazing around getting ready for the next big journey to Austrailia. I want as much tan as possible before we go there as we're expecting it to be very hot. We decided that it was time to dump some of ...

Ko Lanta
Nach einer etwa einstuendigen Ueberfahrt liefen wir auf Ko Lanta in der Hafenstadt Saladan ein. Bereits auf der Ueberfahrt hatten sich mehrere Thais unter die Reisenden gemischt, um ihre Resorts auf Ko Lanta anzupreisen. Da wir uns zuvor noch keine ...
Paradise Found!
After leaving the squalor of Phuket we arrived on Koh Lanta today having spent 1.5 hours pounding the waves on a rather large speed boat which we shared with two couples. The female part of one spent the entire time with a Vicks Vapour Rub inhaler rammed ...
Getting to Ko Lanta, the unusual way
... ; We arrived, got stamped into Thailand and were immediately hassled as to where we wanted to go. Our plan was to try and get to Ko Lanta that day which had seemed feasible but with the time lost at the port we were now pushing it. The guy from ...
Catch up an our journey so far
Sorry we havent been in touch so i appologise for the very long update, you might have had some of it already. But i do like to repeat myself!! We had an early start, 5am to be precise to watch over 300 monks collecting alms (food) from local people ...
Last Night on Phi Phi Island
Last day Phi Phi Island This place is magical...really awesome. It is full of tourists, but has a much different vibe then Phuket. No sex tourists or tuk tuk buggers. There are a ton of little restaurants, dive shops and stores. Lots of the bootlegs ...
relax to the max
Heute wollen wir nicht viele Worte verlieren und stattdessen Bilder vom Tag am Klong Nin Beach sprechen lassen ... ...
A beach hut on Ko Lipe
I found a beach hut on Pattaya beach on Ko Lipe which is even smaller that Ko Lanta. A ferry brought me here and as is the way here a longtailed boat took me close to the beach and I had to jump off and walk the rest. The hut itself was baxic in that ...
Wait a minute, they're not ninjas!
... and we all had a good laugh about it after. When all the fun with the fish was done we started the long boat ride back to Ko Lanta. We had been applying sunscreen all day each time we got out of the water but to no avail. Both me and Rachel were ...
Finally!! Merry Christmas....
... Boxing in broken english on a broken PA. Fun....and so we begin.... We are currently on Koh Lanta...it's one of the southern islands of Thailand...famous for diving and, of course, the tsunami. But first things first...back to Bangkok the ...
Beach and a crystal ocean
... follow up with the Thai Grind to the top of a look out point to catch the sunset. Beautiful. The next morning it was off to Ko Lanta. We have been here a few days now. It is the most relaxed tony and I have been. Doing nothing but swinging in a ...
The Poons in Koh Pu!
Andy - I have to admit that Phuket was mainly chosen for Kitesurfing reasons, rather than to experience the "Real Thailand". As an antidote to the bright lights and noise of a major seaside resort we have moved into Koh Pu (a part of an island called Koh ...
Lazin' in Lanta
... beach from there had lovely fruit shakes and curries, and double hammocks that we nearly moved into. Currently residing at the Lanta New Coconut - a bit less mossie ridden and again with REALLY great food. Were supposed to be going diving again today ...
The long awaited sunshine
... dive. We didn’t explore the Island too much, just venturing into town one day via tuk tuk to stock up on sunscreen (which in Thailand seems to be a luxury item and will cost you almost double what it does in the UK.) It was pretty easy not to do a ...
Soooooooooo beautiful
After a slightly scary boat ride (its not very comforting when people start shouting that the engine has a problem because the boat is too heavy.. but what do they expect when they cram so many many many people on the boat?!) we made it to the island of ...
Hermit Crabbing
On a beautiful, secluded beach surrounded by an idyllic bungalow resort, three boys swig beer in the sea. When they realise that Meena is interested in the hermit crabs that scuttle along the sand, they start to bring us an interesting array of ...
Merry Christmas!
... something to eat and also to catch the ferry to Ko Lanta. Fortunately we made it with about 5 mins to spare :) The journey to Ko Lanta was rather effortless, although I did get a big soak on deck when a large wave hit the boat. Thank goodness it's ...
There's a storm coming
... back on. Then the South African dude found us and told us the boat had broken down an that they'd got a speedboat to bring us to Ko Lanta. Other people were pretty excited about the thought but I wasn't mad about the idea. We had to jump onto the boat at ...
Animal Welfare Centre
... all eating out the palm of her hand before we left! It really is worth an hour or two of your time if you're on Ko Lanta to check this place out...and if you fall in love you can always take one of the animals home with you, the centre will sort ...
Getting our Koh Lanta on!
... responses and your prayers especially. we made it all in one piece! we stayed in koh phi phi for 3 days, then took a boat over to koh lanta. we are saying in bungalows with a fan now, so it's a little stickier! i will put in a picture of the hotel. we are ...
On the road again
Koh Lanta - 10:00 Uhr - die Sonne scheint - das Gepäck hält nicht .... natürlich hat Petra den größeren Sonnenschirm ausgesucht, ohne den Stauraum im Rucksack genauer zu sichten. So fahren wir mit dem günstig erstandenen 2 Liegenmatten, ...
Bad Things Happen In Three's
... my bag was going to come off again. I had no choice but to hope for the best and check the damage when we got to Ko Lanta. The whole backpack episode made us even later for the car ferry and the driver started to do ridiculous things on the road at ...
The ghost island
