Hello all. Still alive and well. Still having the time of my life.

We are up each day at 6am and work till 16:30 Its Monday to Saturdayand the pay is ok. Only going to do it for a few weeks as its fast easy cash. Then we'll head off and see a bit of New Zealand be4 trying to set up a home in Auckland. I want to live in Auckland as its an amazing city. It reminds me of Edinburgh.

Bye bye Thailand
Thailand is amazing. I can't drink anymore. We've been on the beer for 15 days now.
We have done it all here, lived in the jungle with a local tribe, had the city life of Bangkok, the sun, sea & sand of Koh Phangan. Life is amazing here.
Heading to New Zealand tomorrow. More fun ahead I'd say.

Rumble in the jungle
Class water fall.
Another waterfall.
The jungle wild life....lol. No really, thats as scary as it got.
The local tribal family who put us up in their hut. These people have not got a care in the world and are so happy. Makes u think about all the problems we think we have.

View from the hut.
This village became our home for one night.
God help this poor lad. Jasper from Germany. We were on the bus for 11 hrs and he heard us asking for a bottle opener and gave us his bottle opener. We got him so pissed and by the end of the 11 hours he would not even talk to us...lol. Bet he knew Conor loved him!!!
This wee dog followed us from one camp to another. I guess it was my fault as I fed him. We called him Singha after a local beer that we drank. On our last day in the jungle we had to find someone to take him. So a lad from one of the local tribes took him.
Paddy and Marko getting a taxi to the local.
Shaun and Singha. He looks like a wee lion baby..lol.
