July 13, 2011 by Jack Leave a Comment

Photo of the Week, Gold Leaf Buddha, Golden Palace, Bangkok

June 22, 2011 by Jack Leave a Comment

This week I have selected something a little different. This is a small Buddha in the center of the Golden Palace, Bangkok. Buddhists take a small section of gold leaf and place it on the Buddha after praying. In my time in Asia I saw so many Buddha’s it was unreal but this was one […]

Buddhist Prayer Chant in Chiang Mai, Thailand

June 19, 2011 by Jack 2 Comments

This video was taken at the very start of my South East Asia trip in Chiang Mai, Thailand. It is of Buddhist monks praying inside a Wat. In Thailand the name for their temples are Wat’s. The Wat’s in Thailand are well worth a visit as they are lavishly decorated and Chiang Mai has some […]

May 7, 2011 by Jack Leave a Comment

What I did… Skip to the images… Up very early the next day and got a Tuk-Tuk to take me to Victory Monument, only it started going to wrong way! I told him again so he turns round but then decides we have to go to his house to pick up his phone. This act […]

May 7, 2011 by Jack 1 Comment

What I did… Skip to the images… So I have made it from where I started to where I must bring this little adventure to a close, Bangkok. Bangkok is an amazing city and you could stay here for two weeks and still not do everything. I spent a week here and tried to cram […]

Koh Pangan, Thailand, January 2011

May 6, 2011 by Jack Leave a Comment

What I did… Skip to the images… We got the boat from Koh Tao to Koh Phangan and arrived at our pre-booked hotel, ‘Power Beach Resort’. They had messed up the room situation so the 5 of us who booked now had three rooms instead of two. With Brogan now joining us there was 6 […]

Koh Tao, Thailand, January 2011

May 6, 2011 by Jack 1 Comment

What I did… Skip to the images… The trip to Koh Tao from Railay was long and tiring. We took a boat to Ao Nang, a minibus to Surat Thani, a bus to the ferry port and then the ferry to Kho Tao via Koh Samui and then Koh Phangan. We almost missed our connecting […]

What I did… Skip to the images… As I arrived in Railay a French guy (Xavier) approached me and we set about finding some cheap accommodation on the east side (the cheap side). We found a cheap room and then headed to the internet cafe. After a much needed shower we headed down the beach […]

Ao Nang, Thailand, January 2010

May 6, 2011 by Jack 1 Comment

What I did… Skip to the images… We made it to Krabi after seeing the breathtaking views across on the ferry. We decided to go to the beach resort close to Krabi called Ao Nang as the town seemed to be quiet. We found some cheap accommodation and all headed straight to McDonald’s for a […]

After catching a very bumpy and long train from the border between Brazil and Bolivia we arrived in Santa Cruz knowing time wasn’t on our side. We caught a taxi to the centre and found a cheap hostel with some dodgy beds and set about finding breakfast. We found a mercado (market) that was, on […]
