what has happened since my last blog? well I went to the Christmas party, was not underdressed, had loads of fun went and got henna done on my hands and then tried to do my own feet to not much success and it's gonna last a while, ugh. Getting the henna done was cool though, we went to a ladie's saloon (yes, I do realise there is an extra 'o' there but I don't think they realise that and besides, if everyone makes the same spelling error there is a language agreement there and it means that it's the right spelling, [View Full Entry]

wow! things have changed in blog-world! there is now an option for RAK on the list of places for the UAE, I feel like maybe I had something to do with it, with being the coolest person travelling at the moment and all. okay, so I know I haven't posted in a long time but it feels like I just posted because usually every time I post it's been from a new place and I've been stationary for the lonest period of time since I left home now. Last weekend I went and saw Anna in the lead role of Hercules [View Full Entry]

I was going to post this blog earlier but I totally forgot. I wanted to kind of make ammends for some of the sarcastic comments I make on my blog. I really don't mean a lot of the stuff I say and to prove it here is an excerpt from an email I sent my dad: ~I didn't think this experience would change me so much but I feel it's going to be a big adjustment to go home again, not that I want to stay here or anything, but now I've seen people who survive with so much less than [View Full Entry]

this weekend we went to Dubai for the rugby 7s tournament, it was fun. thursday morning I got up at 5 do that I could go with Troy (Anna's boyfriend, Anna had to work so came the next day) to Dubai because his rugby team the RAK goats were playing a game at 8am, due to suckiness his team had to forfeit and played against a really good team at noon. at their next game a guy went to tackle Troy and ripped his shorts completely off his body, we all had to stop laughing long enough to find him another [View Full Entry]

the travel blog webiste is severely lacking in place names for this fine middle eastern country known as the United Arab Emirates but I am in the place that I name in my title:RAK as the locals call it. After spending 2 boring days in Bangkok sleeping and watching a James Bond marathon I got up yesterday and was delighted to think that I was heading to the airport. After a gong show that involved me not being able to get a shuttle from the street I was staying on, having to double back because I forgot my 1000 baht deposit [View Full Entry]

ugh, I'm really starting to get sick of having to come through this city, oh Bangkok how crazy are you? it's really hard to know anyways, this'll just be a quick note to let you all know that I really am okay! I left Laos yesterday, which was really sad because I loved it there and I knew I'd be coming back here (to Bangkok). The journey was epic but I made some friends along the way which helped make it pass a little easier and it was nice to have people to share a cab with. I shelled out for [View Full Entry]

as it implies in the title of this entry, I am done as in ill but I shall start at the beginning and bear in mind that even though some bad things happened yesterday I'm fine now... ominous I know! okay so I got here Tuesday and met this Aussie girl named Isabelle and we bought tickets to go to Don Det and Don Khon for Wednesday then we went for a walk in the blistering sun. Wednesday I get up and don't feel that good but I assure myself that all I need is some water and a little something [View Full Entry]

hey hey there so much has happened since I last posted, it's hard to know where to start! on the 11th we left Luang Prabang for the internetless void of northern Laos, Nong Khiew to be exact, by boat. The driver told us that at 7 people we needed to wait for 3 more to show up or we would have to pay an extra $2 each. We were with some real ball busters who went to complain at the ticket counter and he decided to head them off by telling us we could go and maybe give him a tip [View Full Entry]
