28/03/18 Ejay picked us up and took us to the Cebu city south bus terminal so we could catch our bus to Poog for our climbing day. It was easy to find the bus which was heading in the direction of Toledo. We told the bus driver we wanted to get off at Poog, which … Continue reading Philippines – Cebu – Poog Rock Climbing

Thailand – Bangkok, Hair and wax!
17/10/16 Seeing as I'm leaving the land of dirt under my nails and hair wrecked by the sun I decided I should probably spruce myself up. I had found online this salon where they do amazing hair dyes, and at first I thought hell why not go blonde?! But I freaked out and opted for … Continue reading Thailand – Bangkok, Hair and wax!
Thailand – Bangkok, Glitterarti Nail bar, central shopping
16/10/16 So I decided to get my nails done, and had done some research before and came across Glitterarti which was only 5 mins away from my hostel! The price I had quoted was 650B for gel, but I ended up paying double and I'm not really sure why. Could be because the design I … Continue reading Thailand – Bangkok, Glitterarti Nail bar, central shopping
Thailand – Leaving Kanchanaburi to Bangkok, night market
15/09/16 So it was really unlucky, and unfortunate that the King of Thailand died yesterday. My condolences to the country. My original plan was to go to the Hell Fire Pass, and was really looking forward to it, but due to the situation it was closed today. I wasn't 100% sure it was closed as … Continue reading Thailand – Leaving Kanchanaburi to Bangkok, night market
Thailand – Kanchanaburi Death Railway & museum
14/10/16 Today as a "rest day" I decided to get on the train and travel along the railway which was originally built by the Japanese to connect Thailand with Burma during WW2. It is a notorious railway line as so many men died from building it, hence the name Death Railway. To get the ticket … Continue reading Thailand – Kanchanaburi Death Railway & museum
Thailand – Kanchanaburi, Erawan Waterfall by public bus, heritage walk
13/10/16 Today I got up super early (6.30am wtf) and got ready to leave my hostel at 7.30am to try and catch the first local bus at 8am to the waterfalls. I shared a tuk tuk to the bus station for 50B, it's only a 2km walk so can do that too or even rent … Continue reading Thailand – Kanchanaburi, Erawan Waterfall by public bus, heritage walk
Thailand – Ayutthaya to Kanchanaburi
12/10/16 My minivan picked me up at 9am and I arrived in Kachanaburi at 12pm. I asked to be dropped off in the centre rather than the bus station so I could find somewhere to stay. After looking in one hotel which was 350B per night I asked where I could find cheaper and was … Continue reading Thailand – Ayutthaya to Kanchanaburi
Thailand -Ayutthaya
11/10/16 I arrived in Ayutthaya at 3.30am... Completely dazed and tired I agreed to a taxi to take me to the centre of town for 200B(!). I knew I got ripped off as soon as I entered the car but thought I needed to find somewhere to stay asap. Luckily the taxi driver took me … Continue reading Thailand -Ayutthaya
Thailand – Sukhothai
10/10/16 I got up early after quite a pleasant sleep at Green House (looks can be deceiving). I headed to the main street where I first asked a tuk tuk to take me to the old city but he was charging 100b. So I found the bus stop and waited there, this takes a little … Continue reading Thailand – Sukhothai
