Laos is just spectacular....there is no other way to describe it. After much hassle with all the pleasures that come with travelling Thailand, Laos was simply heaven. Louang Phrabang is a beautiful old french colonial town, home to the most prized bhuddha in all of Laos and some of the most...

Laos Baby!

After spending two days in Chiang Khong we crossed the Thai/ Laos border for a 2 day slow boat trip up the Mekong to Luang Prabang. Luckily the scenery and sunsets were absolutely amazing because after 14 hours sat on a plank of wood our arses had seen happier days! First night out in...

Leaving Laos

Well leaving Laos and its wonderfully slow mentality to everything had to happen sometime. The final destination was a beautiful and quiet retreat 6 hours by bus from the tubing town. Four days with Sebastian, Emily, Patric and others were spent relaxing where possible. And finally as we all...

Here's me, Here's the bear...
