The Death Curve

Trat, Thailand


After tuk tuk taxies, ferries, buses, one night in Trat and so, we've got to the second biggest island in Thailand, Ko Chang. Another National Park with a few nice waterfalls and separate prices for Thais and tourists.
The beaches are not as 'postcard image' as the ones in Ko Samet but the island is definitely more beautiful.
It's like living in the middle of the jungle. There are monkies, elephants, lizards and every kind of unknown insects. As our bathroom is outdoors, we can enjoy them while taking a shower or ..... you know what.

The accomodation is extremely cheap. We're paying around 2 euros for a small hut with a double bed.

Again, we've had to rent a motorbike and face death with the 360 degrees curves and 90% slopes all over the island. Ufff, we are still scared.
And this time, we've had a flat tyre, which has implied Miriam walking one kilometre under a merciless sun. Fun, fun! This has improved her humour after burning her leg with the exhaust pipe... (Miriam 'la pupas').
Now, we can also say we're drug addicts cause we're taking pills every day for malaria prevention. They're called Malarone, very good trip guys, you should try them.
Tomorrow we go to Cambodia. We're very excited. A new country!
