|ENG| My time in Thailand came to an end and Cambodia was next on the list. WHY? I didn’t know anything about it! That’s 1 reason. And sometimes 1 reason is all you need to make a decision 🙂 We took an 8 hr ride from Bangkok to Siem Reap in a sleeping bus. It wasn’t too bad at all. The seats were fairly comfortable and reclined all the way back. It also had a toilet onboard; however if you can’t go before boarding, please be the first one to …

Phi Phi Island, Thailand
|ESP| Como leíste antes, Phuket mató mi ambiente tropical. ¡Necesitaba sol y playas para reconectarme con mi vida de palmera interior! ¡Afortunadamente, las islas Phi Phi me revivieron! Cuando llegamos al puerto en Phi Phi , de inmediato nos ofrecieron paquetes turisticos que van de isla en isla en un bote copartido. Y este se detiene en 6 islas durante unos 40 minutos cada una.

I always heard about how delicious the food was in South Asia, especially in Thailand. But simply, food here, rules. Restaurants and a food trucks literally border every single side walk and first floor of a house, building or garage. You walk in the street to be clear, forget the side walk. There is no empty spaces or way to miss …
