They had also told us that Banglamphu was a [...]

I almost instantly regret opting for a speedboat as our means of transport to Ao Nang, a main beachside town in Krabi Province. The weather had been questionable during our last few days on Koh Phi Phi Don and as a result we are now gripping on to one another as the open-aired boat rose [...]
‘Taxi!’ ‘Taxiii!’ ‘Tuk Tuk!’ ‘Taxi-cab! Taxi-cab!’ ‘Taxi, Madam!’ ‘Sir, Sir!
