After paying the bill, receiving our fresh washed laundry and returning the bikes to the rental shop the guy working at the guesthouse brought us to the busstation. He owned a motorbike with a sidecar. We both fitted in together with our two bags. At the busstation we found the bus back to BKK, pai…

I have 2 days for spending in Thailand so I decide to took a daytryp to Kanchanaburi: River Kwai Kanchanaburi is like 100 or 200 Km away from Bangkok, That means 2h30m of driving, at least.  It's a kind of cultural visit, to see the famous bridge over the river Kwai, and also the 2nd W…

New Year's Eve, 2007. Before heading back to Bangkok for fireworks, I had 2 awesome side trips to complete near Kanchanaburi: A hike up the gorgeous 7-tiered Erawan waterfall, and a trip to pet real live tigers at the Tiger Temple. Erawan Waterfall Erawan is a series of waterfalls winding its wa…

Kanchanaburi, Thailand, January 2009 -- This most recent excursion into Thailand over the long Chinese New Year weekend offered a fresh insight to the Kingdom, one that I willingly relegated many times in the past in favor of the more carnal vestiges of its major attractions. Indeed, there is more …

People i met here who contributed to, and improved my trip: Julia (Russia), Paul and Maddie (England)The four of us were all feeling a bit rough on Monday morning, but we managed to drag our behinds out of the Hotel and grab a light breakfast on Rambuttri. Thankfully our only task for the day wa…

How on Earth did I manage to wake at 8am after that night??  I think physical force helped a lot.  Well, this was the day most people were heading up to Laos, but as for myself; Colin; JeAr; Lori; Ivan; and Raj, we stayed in Thailand awaiting the visas and football, and used the day …

April 26 2008 It happened before going to see the Pandas in chiangmai and lucky us that most of tigers don't sleep when we're there. This temple just became the tiger temple since the famous abbot, Loung ta Mahabou, decided to help the tigers but now some people boycott this temple. They…

I went to a special place to sleep. On the way to the hotel I met two English girls and we all went to the floating hotel somewhere in the middle of the jungle. It was very quiet with only the river making some noise. No electricity or running water just a hammock and oil lamps. The bath room was r…

Most of the times we travel, we travel for ourselves, isn't it true? Yes, I do and I know you too. But, have you ever travelled for the other people?The weekend that just passed (22-23 August 09) was very special trip for me. It was once again in my life that I travelled for the others. That's righ…

After shopping, we headed to Kanchanaburi  to the Tiger Temple where Buddhist priests care for tigers and other animals. We switched up vans and it was just me and a couple from Austrialia (Tom and Kendra). Everyone I've met so far is really nice and it's fun to meet new people. I got my pictu…

Kerry - We decided to get out of Bangkok for a couple of days while our visas were being processed, so took a two day trip to the town of Kanchanaburi about 2 hrs drive from Bangkok. We took an organised tour rather than doing it on our own as it seemed easier and we didn't have a lot of time reall…

I slept absolutely wonderful tonight, in my luxurious room next to the river. I did had to put my anti mosquito machine in the plug though, because the water does attract some uninvited guests. But apart from the little bloodsuckers, that perished soon after my little machine got in to action, I…
