I’ve now been in Koh Pha Ngan for 8 days and as yet I have done nothing constructive. I haven’t did any day trips, I haven’t hired a bike to travel around the island and I haven’t done…..well I haven’t did anything except from drink. I didn’t want to drink …
Last Thursday me and Chris left Lamai and headed up to the north of Samui to a quiet place called Ban Ruk. It’s where the boats leave for other islands. It was pretty good but perhaps a little quiet for us as there was only one good pub but even …
I’ve been in Lamai, Koh Samui since last Friday. Me and Chris got dropped in the town centre and whilst walking we found a cheapish place called Bonny Hotel. From the outside the place looks awful, an old grey blocky building that wouldn’t look out of place in communist Russia …

Just about every day we go to a great little restaurant across the street called Archees. It’s run by a really nice family. They are always smiling and laughing and make us feel really welcome. We’ve been there most days for over 5 weeks now so they are really great …

Well I’m off to Thailand to train in Muay Thai for a few months. I will be staying in the south of Phuket and will be training at Rawaii Muay Thai. It’s been around -5 degrees celcius the last week or so in Scotland so I’m looking forward to training …
