Leah(the canadian girl that I meet in koh phan gnan)and I arrived to Koh Tao yesterday morning in the first boat and managed to find a bungalow by the water quite cheap, although it is the worst place I have stayed so far. Very very basic, but you can just walk downstairs and swim in a turquoise sea. I guess that it is not that bad:) Koh tao is my favourite island of all the ones I have been to so far. Much less wild than phi phi and phan gnan, more chilled and really amazing clear waters. Yesterday was very relaxed, just sunbathing, swimming, and having dinner and drinks by the sea (literally, sitting on cushions on the sand in one of the multiple hip bars at sairee beach). The only downside of the island ... read more

Hey all,I have not been updating my blog the last few days and now I somehow regret it because so many things have happened! ----------------- Hola a todos. No he estado actualizando my blog los ultimos dias y ahora lo lamento porque han pasado tantas cosas! --------------------------------------- Phi Phi day 2 was actually pretty good. I went on this snorkeling boat trip arround Phi Phi Ley (the island of the famous beach from the movie), and we saw an amazing sunset from the boat in the middle of the Andaman sea surrounded by these dramatic beautiful cliffs. Simply gorgeous. I also met 2 canadian guys from Quebec who were really nice (although the quebec french accent is so weird!) and we went later for a drink on the beach with candle lights. Perfect ending of my ... read more

Heat. Heat. And then a bit more heat. I arrived to koh phi phi this morning after 1,30 h by boat full of backpackers looking for sun&party, and all I can think about is... how hot is in here! Being spanish I thought I could cope with it, but I realised thta this is a different story. My bungalow without the fan turned on makes me feel like when I was inside the tent at 12 am at the benicassim festival.... (by the way, excellent place the one I booked, despite of the heat inside) ---------------- Calor. Calor. Y un poco mas de calor. Llegue a koh phi phi esta manyana despues de 1,30 h de barco lleno de mochileros buscando sol&fiesta, y todo en lo que puedo pensar es... que calor hace aqui por dios! ... read more

Back from my two days trekking safe and sound, exhausted and quite dirty.. But it was really great!! Before I start, thank you by the way to all for your nice messages!! (special kiss for Eduardo:-) I am happy that you are enjoying this blog, because after writting it sometimes it seems a bit dull...and I wonder who the hell would be interested in reading this? Well, this is reassuring because it means that you love me very much apparently:) Well, lets get back to the trekking or how not to be able to runaway from the Netherlands despite being 8000 km away from there. Yesterday some thai guy with a strange evil laugh (but really nice) came to pick me up to the guesthouse in a funny vehicle, where 2 more girls where already sitting, ... read more

After 14 hours of flight, overall, I arrived to to Chiang Mai yesterday at 19 pm! During all that time, and particularly the 5 most boring hours of waiting for my flight to Bangkok in Helsinki, I was thinking that Thailand must better make up for the long time it takes to get there... I have only been for a day, and all I can say is that it sure does! ----------------- Tras 14 horas de vuelo en total, llegue a Chiang Mai ayer a las 7 de la tarde! Durante todo ese tiempo, y particularmente durante las 5 horas de espera de mi vuelo a Bangkok en Helsinki, pense que mas valia que Tailand mereciese la pena todo el tiempo que cpstaba llegar alli... Aunque solo he estado un dia, solo puedo decir que desde ... read more
