First taste of Thailand
When we first arrived on Phi Phi we were really suprised by how developed it was - we were expecting something similar to Gili T - a few bars and resaurants - but this was much much more. It made us appreciate how unspoilt and quiet Gili Meno was in ...
"Take me to the beach..."
... , and I could happily manage living in a dorm room full of other people. Who doesn’t love sleeping on a top bunk? Koh Phi Phi was really nice though very tourist orientated. It is extremely busy, the paths are narrow and you constantly have to move ...
Sleeping in the up in the trees in Koh Phi Phi...
... great way to travel. I told her about my great place, and she was open to checking it out. The Viking Nature resort here in Phi Phi is off the beaten path ( my kind of place!) has a very artistic vibe to it, and is somewhat isolated since you have to ...

Phi Phi Don "the pee pees"

Hello possums!
... damnest to defraud Air Asia out of 5,000 Bahhht as we twisted the words of our 'Quiet night in' last night and painted Phi Phi Don's tiles a most distinct tint of claret and beaujolais. I think he'd like to have been Ronnie Kray, but then Bop Bop didn't ...
