Wed, 14 May 2008 | By abelaine | Views [773]

There are 2 airports in Bangkok.  The old (now mostly domestic flights) and the new (international).  Pere, Rene, Briel and I all arrived late into the night where we were able to get into one cab to the main centre.  This was quite an accomplishment ... Read more >

Phuket & Phnom Penh

Sun, 20 Sep 2009 | By amy_smith | Views [706] | Comments [2]

I actually really liked the city of Patong in Phuket for the first day, but then it started to get really irritating with all the market people demanding you look into their shops. The unfortunate thing is that most of the aggressive annoying people aren't ... Read more >

Electronic market and Din Tai Fung

Sat, 8 Dec 2012 | By prerana | Views [657]

The next day (24 Nov) neither of us is in any rush to get up. I think we're playing that game where if I make no noise, the other person won't realise I'm awake. Eventually, hunger gets the better of us & we talk of our plans for the day. Floating ... Read more >

The Islands are Getting the Best of Me!

Sorry, I know it’s been a while.  I have not had good Wi-Fi since I left Koh Samui over a week ago.  I have also been very busy and haven’t had a lot of time to myself.    After I left Koh Samui, I took a ferry to ... Read more >

The brown-limbed boy of Pai

Tue, 26 May 2015 | By | Views [272] | Scholarship Entry

Pai is blistering at this time of day – so hot even the lizards are keeping their tails curled into the shadows to avoid any glare of sunlight. Sensible creatures, I think. Earlier I made the mistake of leaning against the metal skeleton of this rickety ... Read more >
