I have been to Laos!

means: "Hello" in Laos

Actually, before Oli and I went to Laos, we've met in Kratie for the leaving do/party of Emily and Susan. Unfortunately I didn't take any pictures of it.

Irradaway Dolphins, around 40 left in that part of the Mekong river

you can hear them breathe once they dive up

video evidence also exists of the dolphins...

The next day, we went to see the dolphins. Oli managed to shoot some amazing pictures.

I found him attractive from the first moment.

He started flirting, not me!

He asked me for my mobile number...

After we came that far, I asked him to marry me. Instead of an answer, he made a big poo into the water.
