Thailand

We have now been in Thailand for most of the time since mid-December bar the three day visa run to Penang in Malaysia. I hate the phrase 'visa run' by the way. But I love the term 'Farang' for foreigner used here - nearly as much as I love 'Gringo'!

We are in Krabi now, have been briefly to Koh Muk and will be back on Koh Jum island in a few days (22.1) for 3-4 weeks. Internet access there is only sporadic 3 km away in the village though our phones work for texts and calls (though calls cost us).

More on Thailand next time but a quick thanks to Ake, Laura, Ville and Kirsi who let us invade their holiday for 4 days on Koh Muk. The island was lovely, their resort (Charlie's) was great (understated and great food) but they were the best - it was so lovely to see them!
