Backpacking in Thailand🇹🇭: Chao Phraya River Cruise, Bangkok

Jonny BlairAsia, Bangkok, Boats, Destinations, Regular Features, Thailand, Transport7 Comments

I don’t write about Thailand much, it bored the living daylights out of me, but it seems to be on everyone’s travel list and I started this article about 5 years ago and never finished it, so here it is. Bangkok has normally been on my “try to avoid” list mainly because loads of people…

The Ultimate Guide to Koh Samui Island

Jonny BlairAsia, Bangkok, Thailand2 Comments

While I don’t write about Thailand much or promote it, it’s important to note how many tourists flock here every year.

Jonny BlairAccommodation, Asia, Bangkok, Hotels, Thailand5 Comments

I’ve been through Bangkok more times than I can count. That doesn’t mean to say I like it, I’ve often been a critic and have rarely featured it on my stories. But it does make a decent stopover city and I’ve some friends there so I often end up chilling out there for a few…

99 Minutes in Bangkok Airport, Thailand

Jonny BlairAsia, Bangkok, ThailandLeave a comment

Hardly enough time to class yourself as a citizen, an illegal immigrant, a resident or even a tourist…but the history books do reveal that I spent 99 minutes on Thai land, albeit in transit at the airport. It was the Sunday just gone, our flight left London, England late on the Saturday (getting bags packed…
