Just Hangin’ With My Homies, Railay Beach – Thailand.
Koh Lanta
Through climbing and Lillan, I ended up hanging with a group that got pretty tight. Enjoyed the spontaneity of how we got together and I felt completely at ease with these new friends that I hope I will keep in touch with. Our little group consisted of:Lillan and me, who’s history you know; Henric and Christian, two Norwegians who are travelling the world; Jo and Sylvia, two pharmacists of all things, Jo from New Zealand and Sylvia from Scotland. They had met H & C in Nepal and then ran into them again in Krabi!

After Line and Chalotte headed off for Bali, I decided that it was time to move on…leave paradise to explore some other parts of Thailand. I met up with Lillan, a nurse from Norway and we decided to travel together. It was now two weeks into my trip and I hadn’t actually travelled with anyone so I was looking forward to it. Lillan and I proved to travel well together and we shared some great experiences: sleeping at a Muslim fishing village built entirely on stilts over the ocean(very cool!!) sleeping in a bamboo hut built on stilts over the jungle(cool!) trekking through leach infested jungle to an idyllic swimming hole(cool except for the leaches!) riding local transport at half the cost of tour booked transport. One leg of our journey the bus broke down and we hitched a ride with a local who happened to be a civil engineer who fed us pork buns and bananas .
Amazing Krabi, Thailand.

Wickedly Beautiful Beaches.
So I was out of my funk thanks to Becky and in the famous beach area of southern Thailand not exactly where the book “The Beach” was set, but close enough. It was in fact where some of the movie was filmed (the Kho San Road scene where incidentally my cousin Traviss and his fiancé Carly had a part!!! How cool is that?)
Traviss and Carly were actually the ones who recommended Krabi to me…I am forever in their debt for learning about such a place and the recommendations they gave me for in and around the area. It was their favorite place in Thailand and now mine! Actually it is my favorite place in the world! Not so much the town itself but the whole area and what it has to offer: the proximity to tropical beaches and remote islands with millions of things to see and do on the cheap! Figure in the excellent food and the friendly Thai people and it all added up to an amazing experience!!!
Krabi Getaway!

I finally went to Krabi, ya’ll!! I’ve been waiting for like 6 months for this trip and let me scream this straight to your face: Unpleasant things happened before i left on the AirAsia plane (like failing to locate where i put my money, a sudden request from a certain boss for a presentation, a troublesome house contractor..). i swear these people are jealous of me leaving for the fun, sun, and sand. Alhamdulillah i managed in the end. *big smile* Now, let’s skip the babbling and more details on the trip. i’m ready to be your tour guide.

Mention Thailand and images of beaches, elephants and Bangkok come to mind. Less known is the fact Thailand rock climbing is some of the best in the world.
Thailand Rock Climbing
Located in Southeast Asia, Thailand is bordered by Cambodia, Burma and Laos in the north and Malaysia in the south. The shape of the country is somewhat similar to Italy, and you’ll find similar differences between northern and southern Thailand that you do in Italy. For rock climbing enthusiasts, the south of Thailand is where the action is. The rock formations in Thailand are almost universally limestone. The level of climbing can be as simple as bouldering or as challenging as tackling over vertical cliffs. This makes Thailand a popular rock climbing destination since it has a little something for everyone.

Krabi, one among the tourist destination while touring Thailand, has enclosed itself as negligent resort destination as the site gives prominence to ease and relaxation rather than with the high-energy social gathering celebrations. Here you have plenty to see and to explore with the copious plant life found all over the landscape, which in turn is really an enchanting as well as ideal for peace seekers.

Railay Beach : Surrounded by sheer limestone cliffs on 3 sides, Railay Beach, just South of Ao Nang, can easily be reached by local taxi boat in 15 minutes. The name ‘Railay’ is supposedly an abbreviation for ‘Rai Tale’ in Thai, which means ‘orchard near the sea.’ Railay Beach consists of two bays joined at the headland on the West and East respectively.
