Ko Chang
Arrived at Koh Chang Island today, it isn't like I had imagined it, but then I am not really sure what I had imagined. It's pretty secluded, our hotel is nice, got an 'infinity pool' and everything. We're really near the beach and it looks pretty idyllic. Took quite a while to get here and was a pretty amazing journey, got a bus, then a dilapidated ferry and then squeezed on to the back of a pick up truck which got us here, just about. I love a bit of adventure anyway.
For those interested, I think the fish have made my feet smoother, they are feeling rather good today.
We're here for a couple more days and then we head off to Siem Reap, Cambodia. The heat is different here and the mosquitos are malarious(sp?) so I am spraying lots of stuff on me!
Also, I am quite excited because I have just read my emails and had one to confirm my volunteering for a couple of weeks time and I am going to be working on a farm in Sangkla Buri, on the burmese border, its a vegetarian farm...how did they know?! (By the way, I'm not a vegetarian, but apparently I look like one, and now even people I haven't met are making assumptions about me.)
An infinity pool? bloody hell, whay sort of accomadation are you staying in? Not on lonely beach I am guessing.
Don't think we stayed anywhere with a pool the whole wime we were in Thailand! lol
How you getting to Siem Reap? I have looked into it before but doing it independently seemed far too complicated and heard very very bad things about organised trips there.
Your hotel sounds very posh!
Not sure i could have done the whole feet/fish thing myself! Looking forward to the next installment x
have a safe trip to Siem Reap.
Gini - we were in Lonely beach, and yes in posh hotel, but only for 2 nights and then we moved! It pretty much took us all day to get to Siem Reap but we are here now, got a minibus thing which organised the whole thing for us for 550BHT each, pretty good really, despite the lengthy time it took to get here!
