Thailand day 11: Railay bay climbing
Some more climbing… In Railay bay and Tonsai bay there are really a lot of climbing routes. There is amazing tropical forest and beach view from most of them. To simplify it – one day of climbing here cannot be enought. Not even if to climb one more day means to walk twice at night…
Thailand day 10: Railay Bay
Today it was about rock climbing in one of the most beautiful places suitable for climbing. Immediately after arriving I was surprised by the prices for renting climbing gear. 2000 THB (53 eur) for equipment for 2 people per day seems to be way too much, considering you can buy completely new things for 2…
Thailand day 7: island Koh Phangan
In the mornign I rented a scooter for 200 THB in order to see as many thing as possible in one day. Immediately after that another tropical rain started – why did not I stay in the hostel resting around swimming pool? Fortunately it stopped raining as quickly as it started before. My first stop…
Thailand day 6: Koh Phangan
In the morning I was moving to neighbor island Koh Phangan (2 hours ferry, 300 THB), which is the biggest from 3 islands around (Koh Tao, Koh Phangan a Koh Samui) and where I would like to spend another 2 nights. Just before departure we were surprised by landing military helicopter – seems soldiers need…

Thailand day 4: island Koh Tao

Thailand day 3: from Bangkoku to Koh Tao
Another long night is over. From 9pm to 3:30am on a bus, then motorcycle taxi, since 6am transfer to port and from 7am to 10am on ferry. Did not really sleep enough… When we were arriving to the island and saw a scenery not worse than the most beautiful puzzles, postcards or wallpapers, tiredness got…
Thailand day 2: Bangkok

Thailand day 1: Bangkok
New country, new city, new experience… Bangkok is same as Kathmandu big city in Asia, but this is the only similar thing. Here are asphalt roads (not too dusty) and garbage is not being burned in the streets (you can breath), just those two things means that Bangkok is way cleaner than Kathmandu. Moreover the…
