I would just like to start by saying as I'm writing this, I'm laying in a hammock on the deck of my wooden bungalow, with a view of the waves gently crashing against the beach and it's a bright sunny day and more than 30 degrees. Yes, life is sweet. This morning we moved into the bungalow, which is quite a massive step up from the other place, considering it only costs about A$8 more a night. We decided to walk to the nearest town, which we were told is about an hour and a half away and with pr…

Zo na een paar dagen goed chillen in Kanchanaburi ben ik vandaag weer aangekomen in Bangkok. Kostte me 6 uur (en zo'n 600 bht aan taxiritten) om m'n paspoort en het bijbehorende visum te regelen maar alles is nu helemaal voor mekaar!Maargoed eerst nog wat over Kanchanaburi..Eerste dag gingen Jonny en Scotty naar de brug en de musea, aangezien ik dat de laatste keer al had gedaan heb ik een motor gehuurd en ben domweg wat gaan touren in de omgeving. Hele dag geen toerist gezien, en op een paar t…

A short trip to South America

Just a party & culture weekend in milan together with a girl who lives in the same place as I do. We both know the same people over there, and decided to visit them!

It was not a surprised, but it has not been easy to raise money for our project. With the crisis, most of the companies we contacted said they did not have as much budget as previous years to put into charity and sponsoring. However, we have always persevered and believed in our project. And we start to get some result from our doggedness! The restaurant "Crêperie La Ficelle" in Caen was the first sponsor to join us in this adventure. And few days ago, we received a great news : a French bank …

With no ill effects from last nights curry, ready to leave the remainder of Delhi for the end of the trip and get to Nepal asap.  Let the hotel sort the taxi to the airport and transfer to Kathmandu and all went to schedule.  A long wait getting Visa sorted at Kathmandu airport but chatted with other westerners including 4 5th year students from Boston, US also wanting to do Annapurna Sanctuary trek.  Having provisionally agreed to walk it together, surprised to find the Tibet Gu…

Stayed here three times on different occasions. The Shiraless is a quiet backpackers located away from the hustle and bustle of the city about 10 min walk north of Perth CBD. Small, clean and tidy with helpful staff - worth using your VIP card for good room discount. Basic facilities with spacious bathrooms and bedside drawers in the rooms which I have not come across before. Apparently has a spa but it wasn't going when I was there. Attracts more mature backpackers rather than the party…

Coolibah lodge isnt the cleanest or newest backpackers, in fact the facilities are very basic, but its the atmosphere and type of travellers it attracts which made the Coolibah a favourite backpackers in Perth. Attracting more long term/visa tennants the guys and gals at Coolibah are more likely to take the van and visit the beach/freo/parks than a pub crawl every night. It has a great atmosphere feeling more like a lodging facility than purely a backpackers. Run by friendly locals it opera…

Because of Ramadan,the restaurant was closed for dinner(we enjoyed again the Surya Supercrab).The continental breakfast with bread,jam and butter was perfect for us. All the staff there were not very smi…
