Hello from Bangkok everyone.
 
How’s it going??? Were going goodish, heaps tired from the last 2 weeks of drinking and 4 hours sleep every night in Italy but it was heaps fun. It’s really hot and sticky here, about 35 degrees and its raining a fair bit too. Tomorrow were flying to Krabi, which is on the south coast of Thailand and then we catch a boat or ferry to Phi Phi island, I'm excited cos I plan to lie on the beach and do absolutely nothing.
 
The last 7 weeks have been so much fun but also very tiring, you don’t realise how much work traveling and living out of a suitcase is but it’s been well worth it. Thailand is pretty cool, everything is so cheap, you can get a whole meal with entree and dessert and drinks for 2 people for about 12 bucks at a restaurant. Shopping is also pretty cheap here too, I already bought a bag in Italy to fit my stuff in and now I have to buy another one, ill be coming home with a thousand thousand bags man!!! anyway better go, dinner and shopping time, tonight were going to the night markets where there are girlie bars right next to it hehe, gel says I should watch out for the LADYMEN!!!!
 
Take care and see you all soon,
 
Luv Jilly xoxo
