Railay & Koh Phi Phi

Day 25We went to sleep early last night. We checked out out of our hostel, had some breakfast and made our way to the pier where the longtailboats were lining up. The guy assured us it would be 150 baht to go to Railay beach. Once there though, he told us we had to wait for 6 other people to fill up the boat. They weren’t sure how long this would take. Probably...

Koh Phangang & the full moon party

Day 20Last time I wrote my blog, we were just about to go out and check out the nightlife of Koh Phangang. After finally getting a taxi, we found out that it took about 45 minutes to get from our resort to the nightlife area of Koh Phangang – at least as bad as the money we had to pay for the ride. Once we finally arrived at Haad Rin (this is also where the...

The last few days have been really nice, keep on reading what we have been up to! Day 15After going to the Marine Park we had gotten a message from the Italian owner of the guesthouse we had been staying before. He asked us whether we wanted to go out and party that night.

Last day in Lima..

Soo.. Eventhough I felt quite tired, I decided to go and have a few drinks out in Lima anyway, as it happened to be the last oppertunity before I was going back home. I ended up with some people from the hostel in a random bar somewhere in downtown Lima. It happened to be an 80`s / 90`s party which was quite fun. At the end of the night I spoke to a Peruvian girl...

Arequipa & Ica

After partying all night at the day of the festival, I slept for a big part of the day in the tent in the backyard of the hostel. I then went to have some lunch with George and Kelsey, a girl from California. Afterwards I went to check out the local market which was quite interesting too. Once back in my hostel I met up with Jannik who came to visit as he was in the...
