We then headed to Fethiye for two nights to celebrate Em's birthday!! We were able to explore the nearby Ghost town which was abandoned by the Greek people after the fall of the Otoman Rule and the turkish people who moved into the area did not inhabit the area.

After this we went to a turkish bath and got a good scrub down! ... read more

We then made our way to Rhodes to stay for 3 nights. This is such a super cool city, on the Coast there is an old medieval city with huge walls and everything that people actually still live in! the buildings and houses and so cool, and these tiny little cobblestone streets teach you to jump in a doorway FAST if a car is coming towards you! We met another Canadian on the Ferry, so with him we wandered the streets of the old city trying to find a hostel. We ended up getting completely lost and stumbling into a nice hotel, when we asked about the price it was SO CHEAP! so we stayed in this amazing room! That day we explored the old city, getting lost in the crazy confusing streets and trying to ... read more

They believe in a energy line that runs throughout the body, and they work along this line to increase energy flow, it's amazing, you actually feel your body grow warm and relax. After we stumbled out of the massage place we headed to the Night Markets. I can't even begin ... read more

After spending one night in Bangkok, we took an overnight bus up to Chiang Mai. We are currently still in Chiang Mai and love it! The first day we went to see a temple where 300 steps lead to the temple, which is highest in the mountains. The next day, we went on a 3 day trek through the jungle with a group of 13 people. This was one of the most exciting things we've ever experienced. After arriving back in the city, we have spent our time exploring the night markets, traveling to a monkey school and seeing tigers.. Ohh, and eating Thai Food!... read more
