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. I booked myself on to a 6 day yoga retreat on Koh Yao Noi to have some structured relaxation. So far, it’s easing my apprehension. Getting to the island (Koh Yao Noi) was a little Read More …

Thailand | Travelling Solo

Ian and I spent our last few days together in Bangkok in luxury with our own apartment, a beautiful pool on the 8th story, a gym, a spa and library room. He left this morning and I flew to Krabi, checked in to my single, bunk-bed mixed dorm room and already I feel very alone. I 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 …

Thailand | Krabi & Railay Beach

Krabi Krabi is about 6 hours from Koh Phangan, and the organised transport is very easy to navigate. I felt that Krabi had very little to offer, it’s run down and the shops are geared up for tourists. We only stayed there one night and that was enough- it was only a stop-over to Railay Read More …

Thailand | Koh Phangan

We didn’t stay on Koh Phangan for very long but the impression we had was that it was very touristy and you’ll struggle to find anything that resembles ‘authentic’ Thai living. It’s a very large island though, so you could probably spend a long time there and not discover all of the view points and nice Read More …

Thailand | Koh Tao

We booked an overnight train for ~£20 each to Chumphon from Bangkok, arriving at 4am to transfer to a bus then ferry to Koh Tao- exhausting! Koh Tao is just the right size with a mixture of touristy shops and café’s along with street food and side stalls. One thing that surprised me was the Read More …
