[vimeo http://www.vimeo.com/38309969 w=540&h=338] Asha and Ryan – January/February 2012 from Asha and Ryan on Vimeo. As we travel across south-east Asia, we are filming a few seconds each day to give our family and friends a glimpse of what we have been upto. Hopefully this video inspires someone to save some coin, quit their job […]
A cheap city like Bangkok means a delicious dinner can be found for a few dollars – but it also means when you want to splurge a bit, things get VERY gourmet. With a serious craving for peking duck pancakes, Asha and I set off for Bangkok’s chinatown and after a couple of hours of […]
When I read travel blogs, I always want to know ‘how much do things actually cost?’. But usually its really hard to find out. So, if you are planning to travel to the islands in Southern Thailand, I hope this is useful. The islands of Krabi and Trang province are probably the most expensive destinations […]
Kah Hai was the perfect way to finish off the better part of a month spent in the islands. Not much to write about the island, its perfect really – we just sat on the shore and stared at this beautiful island just off the coast.
After Koh Phi Phi we decided to head down to another island south of the Krabi Provence, Koh Lanta. We heard it was a bit less touristy, quieter and cheaper than its northern cousins. We had intended to spend 4 days. 13 days later…. We were still there. We arrived at Saladan, the biggest town […]

Asha’s 26th birthday was celebrated in style, on a beach on the far side of Phi Phi Island in the Andaman sea. When you find a place like this, its hard to leave, and we kept extending our time on the island, eventually leaving after 6 days. When the bungalows were fully booked the staff […]
If you are an Australian who gets flustered by Aussies behaving badly overseas and doesn’t have a sense of humour, stay clear of Patong. Allow me to take you there: massive nightclubs with hundreds of bars spewing dance floor tunes out into the busy streets, girls dancing on poles, awful tattoos adorning leathery skin, sun […]
