Sabai

Nach ein paar Jahren ohne längere Reise zieht es mich wieder nach Asien. Ausgangspunkt ist einmal mehr das Guesthouse Baan Sabai in Bangkok.

Sabai Sabai means comfortable, relaxed which greatly greatly explains our last few days for each of us.  My experience at You Sabai was amazing.  What a cool place with cool people doing cool things. It is in a very natural setting.  We ...

... very relaxed, even in Sairee and Mae Head the two main towns that sit adjacent to one another on the west coast it is quite chilled. Sabai, sabai is the order of the day - relax, relax. In the night time there is a host of bar and restaurants, yes it is ...

Sabai Sabai in Thai means chill out, very much the ethos of here. It is a real hippie place where all the residents have dreads and blokes wear sarongs! We make it there after 672 bends and 3 hours – it's not too awful after one of the other ...

... even made friends with a Thai band who played at out beach hut and learn a few Thai words.  Our favorite song was "Sabai Sabi in Thailand" which means good times in Thailand and has a very catchy tune. After recharging the batteries it was time ...

... it so much we've come back. The best thing about Laos is its people – friendly and relaxed, everywhere you're greeted 'Sabai-dii, Sabai-dii' (hello).  Life is taken at a very easy pace in Laos  - even the fishermen tie their lines up at ...

Naa har jeg og Amalie flydd til vietnam, (litt uventet, men en time fly mot 22-30 timer buss frista...) og er ovveraska over hvor stort Hanoi er. Det er MASSE motrsykler og scootere her, man ser et helt hav av hjelmer. Naar man skal gaa over ...

Like Stanley Goodspeed and John Mason, we managed to escape from the Rock down south to Bangkok. We both wanted and needed a change, so we planned to take a trip to the famous canals i Bangkok since neither of us ever been there before. Again, that was ...

i.e. Hello, Thank you & Goodbye The day hadn't started too well. Somehow the super strength mosquito repellent (famous amongst the back packing fraternity for its ability to remove nail varnish) had obviously leaked on to our toothbrushes, so being ...

Tja, naja, vielleicht liegt es an mir oder an meinen Erwartungen aber Laos war erstmal so "geht so". Alle haben davon geschwaermt, wie freundlich und toll die Menschen hier sind und dass alles soo toll ist und ich muss leider sagen, dass die Menschen ...

Our boat trip down the Mekong ended on the evening of January 2nd in Luang Prabang - a really beautiful city in north-western Laos, surrounded by mountains - easy to see why it's a World Heritage Site (and now a popular tourist spot), with numerous ...

OK, not an awful lot to say about Vientiane - it's another Asian city, although much quieter and with a slower pace of life than its Thai, Vietnamese or Cambodian counterparts. We arrived after a bit of a rough bus journey to find that every guesthouse ...

al final encontre el centro de arte y cultura, paro era bastante pequeno y no me impresiono mucho, habian trozos interesantes por eso. tambien consegui encontrar el templo, y eso me impresiono mas...adamas habia un monje sentado que salude. Luego por la ...

Being in Vientiane, after Saigon, is like changing the speed from 78 to 33 1/3, without the distortion. It is said that, in Vietnam, they plant the rice.  In Cambodia, they watch it grow. In Laos, they listen to it grow.  Note to all: You ...

Full day today! Woke up early and headed off into the mountains. We got all of our stuff together and drove for half an hour until we arrived at our home. I immediately felt like I was in a place I would love. It was a lovely community where we were ...

The bus actually pulled up at Ubon Rattachani, near the Thai/Laos border, at 3.30am. Our next bus wasn't leaving until 9.30am so we had a lot of time to kill. We could have tried to get a taxi on by ourselves but we decided against it because we were ...
