We went to Thailand for one month to travel around, learn about the thai culture, dive, climb and party. We went to Bangkok, Koh Phangan, Koh Tao, Krabi and Koh Phi Phi.
We enjoyed the full moon party and met some friends from Barcelona in the Koh Phangan island. We rented motorcicles and drove across the island. On our way, we found a local kid riding an elephant. There were plenty of reagge bars, good food and nice beaches. We had a really good time with our friends and laughed a lot.
From the Koh Phangan island we went to Koh Thao. We did our open water and advanced course in Sunshine divers resort, a place where we felt as if we were part of a big family. The instructors taught us all about the ocean and the different kinds of fish while constantly having fun.
We were running out of money and the island was very expensive compared to other places in the country so when we were about to leave, we met a Canadian guy who let us stay in his house for a very small amount of money. We were supposed to stay six days in this island but we ended up staying fifteen days. He showed us where to party and introduced us to local people. We did not want to leave but we knew that we could not miss the chance of getting to know more places. I promised myself that one day I would go back and do my rescue and dive master course. We fell in love with the island and the ocean.
We had six days left to visit Krabi and Koh Phi Phi. First we went to Krabi’s coast, a very wild place with no cars or motorcicles. The views were amazing and the rock was perfect for climbing. Koh Phi Phi is a party island where you can dive too and see sharks, stingrays, lion fish, scorpion fish, Nemos, puffer fish and trigger fish.
We hope the memory of these great times last forever in our minds.Thanks to Mike, Francis, Satt, Petra, Nicole, Sylidia, Annika and Tom for the special moments that we shared.
So glad you had a great time there 🙂

Thailand is unique. I read the one post. I know you quit your job at the time to travel. Where else in Asian have you been?
We went to India too!
India was amazing and I did not see the entire country. It was incredible to smell the air, see the colors and feel the heat.
Some really wonderful shots (tips fictional hat)
Thanks Alex!
