Location: Patong, Phuket, Thailand
After an arduous journey that lasted almost 24 hours I arrive in Patong, Phuket in Thailand. The journey they say is half the excitement of travelling somewhere different and unknown, and in my case it certainly was. I arrived in Bangkok at a mere 11.30pm and had 8 hours to kill before I could be on my way to Phuket. I barely got a wink of sleep on the plane because I was so excited the ...

... have one day, not jobs that involve going to college.

Phuket Town and Central Festival shopping centre
After lazy morning we decided to go to Phuket town. I knew that we can take songtheaw from Karon to Phuket and the color was blue. That's all the info we had.
