Err, OK! Night Fishing in Koh Chang

"Err, OK!" - KBG brain, regularly.
The clock was ticking and I was err-ing. As with many life decisions where I need a little shove, I messaged my sister P and sought her advice:

K: Sup.
P: Sup.
K: Thinking fishing trip.
P: Do it, sounds insane.
K: Cool.
P: Cool.

I tend to lean towards things which are slightly ridiculous, and which I am slightly ridiculous in doing.

Backpacking Bangkok - treats, traps and tips!

Thailand offers an incredible combination of good quality and exceptional prices, making it a wonderful playground for an explorer on a budget or a top dog seeking luxury. Here are some of my lessons from Bangkok!

Treats

Thais love their food spicy, fried, and/or very sweet! Bland and meek have no place here, and vegetarians will learn to shout "NO MEAT!" when a hand is hovering over the chicken. Tofu is also available, but the carnivorous amongst us will be loving life in Bangkok. 

Street food will invariably beat restaurant food on taste, price, and authenticity. Meat on a stick beats meat on a plate, hands down! Head to Khao San Road around 3pm to hit the majority of street food stalls offering various dishes for 30-60 baht, and then pick an alleyway the the connecting warren of streets surrounding it to get more adventurous tastes.
