This is it, the last entry of the trip, it could be a slightly long one – so please prepare yourself with a chilled glass of your favourite beverage, preferably alcohol-based, to help you through. Thank you! Day 32 – Thursday 28 January My Mum’s birthday! So hopped online to send her my best wishes. [...]

Thailand; to day 21
Wow! Week three has already been and gone… insane! Day 15 – Mon 11 January So finishing off with the Frenchman, I got back to my hotel (from his) at 2pm. Of course all my friends were worried about me as I probably should have been home earlier – but I was having fun. Ate [...]
Thailand; to day 14
It seems to all be flying by now and is tricky to squeeze in blogging time, but here we go… Day 8 – Mon 4th January a complete beach day where I got badly burnt on my lower back (I have now peeled…) a spot of street shopping in Ao Nang – I got some [...]
Thailand; to day 7
I know!! How ridiculously slack have I been?! It’s just been so busy and there really hasn’t been time to blog (I mean drinking cocktails, snorkelling and swimming and tanning at the beach totally beat writing a blog entry).

Time to tone up the bod!
My uni friends and I have planned to go away to southeast Asia for a group adventure at the end of the year. To say we’re excited is an understatement! There’s about ten or eleven of us going and in a way it’ll be our last big bang as we finish uni and head into [...]
T minus 51 weeks
Yes, finally. It is now under a year until my travel begins. It has always felt like a lifetime away. But now that it’s less than a year I know it’s going to fly by. So now my big issue is the savings account and how it has minimal funds for someone who is expecting [...]
