Koh Phangan Travel Blogs

Matt, Mac, and I all decided since we had the jeep rented for one last day that we'd get up early and go explore the island.  Since we all got plenty of sleep we got up around 7:00am got breakfast buffet at the place we were staying and piled in the ridiculously small, and loud! jeep. &nb…

I always have a problem when I drink. Not that yelling, becoming a mean girl (cause I already mean!) or fighting with everyone or vomit all the time but I always grind my teeth when I sleep after drink. I never know how hard I do but I'm always told by people who share the room with me that it was …

ok so after having to spend the rest of the night locked out of our room we  finally got in to it when the staff arrived to work, I couldn't get in to my rucksack tho as i lost the keys with my bag at the full moon party, we were contemplating cutting it open with a knife but once we got …

Today we got breakfast in Loy Fa for the last time, packed up our things and started our long 2 1/2 day journey from Koh Phangan to Chang Mai. As part of the deal we had got a transfer from Loy Fa to the ferry port and then the ferry over to the mainland again. When we reached the port we were act…

05/06/09   We left Bangkok on the 7pm bus, but had passed the day by doing odds and ends.  We went to Siam Paragon and the cinema to watch Angels and Demons, which I enjoyed.  The Thai people absolutely love their King and all stand pre-film for a short video dedicated to h…

So every morning in the resort, one of the girls would wander in our room and inevitably stand on the head of the poor person sleeping on the floor. They would then come in and have some sort of random chat with us despite us struggling to get back to sleep. Some would come in to fill us in on th…

I decided to come to Koh Pha-Ngan a couple of days before the actual full moon to secure some decent accomodation, but even now I have trouble finding anything fairly priced. The prices are going through the roof and are rising every day closer to the full moon party, the monthly boiling point of K…

After spending all of Aug 7th sleeping off the effect of the full moon party and looking over the photos from that night, we booked a day trip around Koh Phangan, including snorkelling, elephant trekking, a monkey show, and hanging out on some secluded beaches! The snorkelling was really cool, esp…

~I will definitely go back again~

People i met here who contributed to, and improved my trip: Julia (Russia), Toby (England), Janne and Krista (Finland), Chay (Israel), Lisa (Denmark), Jill (Sweden) Koh Phangan has become famous for one thing - its parties! Once a month when the moon is full, the island becomes packed with people,…

great place to chill or party

We're staying on the beautiful islan of Koh Phangan in the Gulf of Thailand.  We have done tons of stuff in the last few days, so I'll condense everything for the sake of readability.After our horrendous trip to the island, we got to settle in to our resort, which is a beautiful collection of …

I got up quite early (09:00), because it was just so hot in my bungalow that I couldn't sleep anymore. I did not have a hangover which surprised me after all the mixed drinks of last night. I had breakfast and then went into town to rent a motorbike. I rode to the resort where the girls were stayin…

Bangkok, Pattya, Songkran, Koh Phangan/Full Moon Party

Well I got a little behind on my blogging so I’m just gonna do one entry for the last 4 days in Ko Pha-Ngan. Most of the 28th was spent recovering from the half moon party, unfortunately the power went out on the whole island so our fan wasn’t working and that made sleeping a little difficult d…
