Koh Phi Phi and The Beach

Posted January 15, 2014August 16, 2020 Sweet Little JourneyLeave a commentPosted in Uncategorized

From Phuket we took a ferry to the famous Koh Phi Phi. There are plenty of services that run ferries from Phuket Koh Phi Phi Krabi and conveniently sell open tickets for any time, any day. Going through an agent for this is useless – the public transport is perfectly fine and probably the cheapest […]

Fuck it, let’s go to Phuket

Posted January 8, 2014November 20, 2019 Sweet Little JourneyLeave a commentPosted in Uncategorized

After a long overnight train from Bangkok to Surat Thani (~1200BHT, and about 12 hrs), where a vendor sang “Singha Beer, Singha Beer, Singa all the way!” to the tune of Jingle Bells .. all the way.. and a few more busses and scams, we finally ended up in Phuket. Which might as well be […]

Bangkok wasn’t ALL bad. We ended up visiting the Grand Palace, even though our scammers from the previous day had convinced us that it is closed and we can’t even get near it As well as the biggest lying down Golden Buddah We got to visit the Lebua at State Tower Hotel, where the Hangover […]

Scammed in Bangkok

Posted December 13, 2013January 29, 2019 Sweet Little Journey2 CommentsPosted in Uncategorized

Well.. “One Night in Bangkok” turned into “Three Nights in Bangkok Because All Trains Were Booked”.  If you’re going to Bangkok, really do try to have your ticket out ready in advance.Also, have a good understanding of the ballpark prices you should be paying tuk-tuks and taxis. I’m sure our first Bangkok taxi driver is […]

Welcome to Bangkok, where the prices are made up and the meter doesn’t matter.

Getting through the Thailand border is a pretty complicated process and takes almost full day. There are lots of scam artists on either side of the border trying to convince tourists they need to get a special overpriced visa or try to sell fake visas and fake bus tickets. Canadians don’t need visas, so we […]

Cambodia – Siem Reap

Posted December 12, 2013January 24, 2019 Sweet Little JourneyLeave a commentPosted in Uncategorized

Siem Reap is like a whole other country after Phnom Penh. The amount of tourists is through the roof in comparison. It feels like the main industry is tourism – people toppling over each other to go see the Angkor temples. They have 1, 3, and 5 day passes to see all the temples in […]

Cambodia – Phnom Penh

Posted December 12, 2013January 24, 2019 Sweet Little JourneyLeave a commentPosted in Uncategorized

Now this, was a culture shock. We were lucky enough to meet an Australian on the plane who was heading back to Cambodia to finish his non-profit teaching position at an elementary school. He was kind enough to warn us about common scams and inform us about the politics, some history, how to haggle and […]

Singapore

This was our first country on our South East Asia trip. Considering I’ve never been anywhere in Asia, I had no idea what to expect. Other than some possible culture shock. And the heat. Dear God, the heat. We only spent a couple of nights here since we had our next flight (to Cambodia) booked […]

My travel blog – only about 6 months overdue! I’ve finally decided to jump on the bandwagon and blog about my recent trips. There were a lot of moments during the trip I wished I had a blog to write down the experiences and advise future travellers on what to watch out for in the […]
