Hotel Review: The White Inn, Nong Khai
November 16, 2011
We decided that after slumming it a bit at Trekker Camp in Chiang Mai, we’d splurge and treat ourselves to a nice hotel in Nong Khai, one that we knew would be clean, safe and have hot water! And to be honest it wasn’t even that expensive…about £10 each, which is roughly what we spent … More Hotel Review: The White Inn, Nong Khai
Hostel Review: Trekker Camp, Chiang Mai
November 14, 2011
Upon first arrival at Trekker Camp in Chaing Mai (if you’re even able to find it that is…no taxi driver seems to know it!), to tell you the truth first impressions aren’t great. It’s quite out of the way of the main city and its attractions, and its all generally a bit grubby and dishevelled. … More Hostel Review: Trekker Camp, Chiang Mai

We didn’t really have much of plan for after Chiang Mai, but knew the general direction we wanted to head in, so we caught a train to Phitsanulok, a small town about 7 hours south east of Chiang Mai, ready to just wing it when we got there. This was a pretty good plan and … More Journeying to Laos

But my favorite thing we did over the last few days was by far going to Tiger Kingdom and playing with these tiger cubs…they were so adorable, … More Photo Of The Week: Tigers in Chiang Mai
Chiang Mai Days
November 13, 2011
Where did I leave off? Oh that’s right, we were about to board a bus to Chiang Mai…a journey that taught us a few very valuable lessons – 1) It always takes longer than they say it will, and 2) Always carry toilet paper with you, for those times when you stop at 1am at … More Chiang Mai Days
Top 5 Friday: Bangkok Street Food

Whilst in Bangkok we tried to eat as much food from street carts and stalls as we possibly could, not only because it was the cheapest option, but because we wanted to flavour some of the local cuisines and had been told that this was the best way. Here’s my top 5 things we ate: … More Top 5 Friday: Bangkok Street Food

Hostel Review: Smile Society Boutique Hostel
November 9, 2011
Set back from the busy Silom Road and just a few minutes walk from the Sala Daeng Skytrain station, the Smile Society Boutique Hostel is a small and unassuming building, and is one that you probably wouldn’t even notice if you weren’t looking for it. But not going in and staying there would be a … More Hostel Review: Smile Society Boutique Hostel
