Koh Yao Noi | 6 day yoga retreat | Day 3

I managed get up at 05:30 to watch the sunrise which was a tranquil experience. Even though it was overcast, the view was beautiful. annoyingly, I can’t post my photo of it- explained later. My 2 roommates left today which I’m quite happy about since I won’t have to tip toe around if one is asleep Read More …

Koh Yao Noi | 6 day Yoga Retreat | Day 1-2

After Ian left and I became a solo traveller, I got quite apprehensive about being alone and not enjoying myself.

We arrived in Saigon after an 8 hour bus journey a bit disorientated, aching and hot. An opportunistic taxi driver jumped straight at the opportunity to take us weary eyed travellers Read More …

Thailand | Chiang Mai

Chiang Mai was our absolute favourite place in Thailand, we planned 2-3 days but ended up staying for 9! We did so much, I’ve split it into sections: good food, things to do and nightlife. This blog is more for myself if I ever return as a reference of what to do in Chaing Mai Read More …
