Kho Chang; Elephant Island Time was really pushing on, so we crossed the border back to Thailand for the last time, we’d only get 15days visa coming in by land so had to plan our time carefully. We had our sights set on Kho Chang an island in the northern gulf.   After some negotiations at the border […]

 Leaving the bad atmosphere of bangkok behind us we head for the border once more. Besides our visa is up and time is running down. A comfortable mini bus to the Cambodian border at….was followed by what would have been an equally fine journey to Siem Reap, if we hadn’t of happened to be on a small […]

  We made our way by boats ferries and buses ect to Bangkok. Which was as usual….except this time we decided after all the hype we must visit a ‘pingpong show.’ We might not like the idea of it but it seemed like something we had to do..just once…..I wont go into descriptions or even adjectives….and be […]

So return to bangkok; it was a slightly easier journey then on the way in as we treat ourself to a train from the border crossing at Veintiene…though everyone’s train appears to be at different times even though were crossing in the hands of the same company, lets just say things get a little heated as […]

The return to the adventure,  I’m sat here in Chaing Mai, Thailand at a not so un-godly hour, braving the mozzies lying in a hammock in our uber hip and therefore very popular guest house…..the room wasn’t much better but now I swear the buggers are biting my threw the hammock..its bloody hot in the […]

Old Delhi; 4.45 I arrive at platform ten..and to the right of me is platform nine… In the early morning-spring into action mind of traveling on a sleeper train -only to be forced to wake up and gather your life you carry suddenly in order to carry on with your journey- my first sensical thought, is where […]

So Sumantha explained how he had some projects in mind for me while we drove the usual hazardous style to the happy homestay, There seemed to be a large chunk of meat for me to get my teeth into- part of that being tiger meat. So after lunch at the homestay I continued the day shadowing […]

So Christmas was but days away and things would be very different this year, alone and away from home I was looking forward it being low key and their being little fuss and nostalgic music….but i hadn’t counted on how much I would miss the fuss and music in company of friends and family. I also […]

Oh it feels like Christmas….its, cold, my nose is running and I have a cough. it began when we left Delhi when we all suffered from the pollution. Now its just me in Kathmandu and the cough is accompanied by sneezes. The night before I planned to leave for Kathmandu Merav had to catch her train to […]

  Wary of rickshaw drivers and there drive from commission we took a pre-paid rickshaw (though they still tried to get us to their hotel) the tiny streets surround the ghats on the side of the river Ganga didn’t along for rickshaws so at the main road I left Merav with out the baggage while i followed […]

 The Punjab- Amritsar   Sitting up on the ‘Balcony’ or rooftop of sorts at our guesthouse I can see hear, smell and feel the golden temple…if I wanted to compete the last of the five senses i could go down stairs and touch it. for it is open 24hrs a day 365days a year to everybody or all nationalities and religions. […]

After a day recovering from sickness in Udaipur, I  ventured outside with ‘my girls’. You really do make the best friends while travelling. We had found Merav when we arrived the previous night, lying in wait for us on the staircase. That night we went down to the ghats- the big article lakes originally meant for bathing- I wouldn’t try that […]

 First stop; Bundi. After much fustration on my part trying to find the quietest, easiest, cheapest way to Bundi we went to a travel agent….well two. The first had bearly heard of Bundi and wanted to send us to Bombay, and the second told us all the trains were booked…We were just walking out of […]
