Bangkok was one city I’d wanted to visit for a long time. Ever since we went to Phuket and Phi Phi Island, Thailand very swiftly rose in the rankings of some of my favourite places to holiday in and thanks to that, the capital city has beckoned for quite some time now. Visiting Bangkok, we … Continue Reading
A few hours before midnight, we got picked up from our hotel in Bangkok for a chance to experience the city in a way we wouldn’t have otherwise. Our day had started with one of the most popular spots in the city (the Grand Palace, Khlongs and Wat Arun – see it all here) but … Continue Reading
When my friends suggested booking a trip to Thailand, I immediately jumped on board – Thailand is a one country that possesses some of the most magnificent sights in the world and a travel destination that beckons to millions of people each year and rightly so. You may have noticed a lack of blog posts these … Continue Reading
Okay so because we arrived in Bangkok at night, I never got round to showing you our hotel so I’ll just start off with that now. 😁 We stayed at the LiT BANGKOK Hotel for the first couple of night in the city and it was brilliant! I thought I took photos by the pool … Continue Reading
Phi Phi Islands are a truly stunning set of tropical island and one of the gems in Thailand’s holiday destination. It’s a totally stunning area with so many of the best things to do in Phi Phi around all the islands. The main island, Kho Phi Phi Don, is the mainstay of many a holiday … Continue Reading
The Kingdom of Ayutthaya is an incredible ancient Kingdom in Thailand which started almost 700 years ago and existed for over 400 years. Ayutthaya was actually the capital of Thailand years ago, and is still a very important place to visit when you’re in Thailand! These days, it’s now a city and indeed, a wider … Continue Reading
We’ve already covered off the islands that should be on your travel radar so I take it you don’t need much of an introduction to this (check out the previous post if you do) but I guess what wasn’t mentioned in that post was that one of these islands contains one of the most secluded and … Continue Reading
Bit of background, I’ve been quite lucky to have spent the last few months living outside of the UK. Funnily enough, for all my love of travelling, I’d never been to Asia before and so this was a summer of firsts. The first opportunity I got, I packed as much travel as possible into every … Continue Reading
Confession: I’m still not entirely sure how to pronounce Phuket! Is the ‘Ph’ pronounced like ‘F’ or ‘P’. Come to think of it, is the ‘Ket’ pronounced like ‘Pet” or ‘Pit’. To be entirely honest, I was too excited upon arrival in Phuket to ponder on these questions at any great depth. I just wanted … Continue Reading
First off, this is part 1 of the post as there are too many photos to fit in one post so do settle down with a good cuppa tea… actually, scratch that! Chuck that tea down the sink and get yourself a huge vat of mulled wine instead (go on – it’s Christmas time… N.B.: I … Continue Reading
Swiftly following the morning’s sailing/kayaking and lunch-time gluttony (if you missed that – check out part 1 of this post – which has been split to two parts due to having lots of photos), my friends and I (who must have put on quite a few pounds from lunch alone) headed off to the next … Continue Reading
After an amazing time exploring the islands in Phang Nga Bay (see posts here and here), it was fair to say that by the time we got back to the mainland, we were knackered! It was quite surprising because we didn’t actually feel tired until we got to the hotel and even though we planned … Continue Reading
Thailand is one of my favourite countries I’ve had the fortune of travelling to. It really surprised me how much I loved it as my expectations were so different from the reality of being there. Now, the Mainstream media likes to portray Thailand as a place to go partying and yes, sometimes the focus is … Continue Reading
If ever there was a country to travel to for beautiful beaches, Thailand is it! There’s a whole heap of the best beaches in Thailand that are dotted all across the country. Honestly, the landscapes here are absolutely stunning and it’s been one of the countries that surprised me the most to visit. It’s totally … Continue Reading
