Last post from Thailand

Just spent my last 3 days in Thailand in the city of Chiang Mai. I wish I'd had so much longer to explore this place and it's surrounding areas but my visa runs out soon so I'm heading off to Laos. I did manage to do a Thai cooking course yesterday and was then so full I couldn't move for the whole evening. But the food was delicious and I so want to make it again soon!

Chicken Soup and Kao Soi curry

The last few weeks have flown by, I can't believe I've stayed in Thailand for the whole 2 months. After Koh Tao I went across to the mainland and Khoa Sok National Park. Here we went on a long boat across a massive lake and did a bit of swimming which was awesome, then we did some jungle trekking which was not so awesome...

After just a couple of days in the jungle we head down to Krabi and Railey beach for a few days, the beach wasn't much to shout about but the night life was very cool. Did a bit of friendly sparring with L in a boxing ring in one of the bars!

Then it was on to Koh Phi Phi, which is as stunning as everyone says, I never made it to Maya bay unfortunately due to torrential rain, but just the view the island from the viewpoint at sunset was awesome enough for me!


I headed back to Koh Phangan a day earlier than the others to secure a room in Haad Rin, I think I may have got the last available room! But I was very glad for that as I didn't have far to stumble home after the beach parties and Full Moon Night.



And that's a brief catch up on what I've done the last few weeks, after the Full Moon I headed to Bangkok for 2 nights and on up to Chiang Mai!
