After saying goodbye to Northern Thailand, it is now time for the Thai beaches. I decided to visit the province of Krabi for that, as it is supposed to be not as crowded as the “big names” like Phuket or Ko Samui. The first three (full) days, I spent on the island of Koh Lanta.

The karst hills of Nong Khiaw
In order to see a bit of rural Laos, I tried to find a small town somewhere in the northern Laotian mountains with certain properties: First, it should not be too far from Luang Prabang (because the Laotian buses are not particularly comfortable). Secondly, it should offer a few short hikes and maybe a nice day trip (because I do not feel like going on big hikes just yet after recovering from my short illness). In the end, I settled for Nong Khiaw – and this proved to be exactly the right choice. Continue reading The karst hills of Nong Khiaw

Water in Whangamata
I really hope this is not the start of a “Water” series. Unfortunately, also in Whangamata, the water was not only the attraction, but also sometimes also a bit of a killjoy (in the form of rain, of course). Continue reading Water in Whangamata

South Pacific cliché
Tahiti was actually just a short stop-over. My true South Pacific adventure really did start with five days in Moorea. Continue reading South Pacific cliché

The Misty Mountains of Halong Bay
For my two-day tour in Halong Bay, I had bad luck with the weather: very cloudy, and sometimes a light drizzle. That way, Halong Bay could not show its full beauty. Continue reading The Misty Mountains of Halong Bay

Abel Tasman by Sea
Today I splashed out, and went on a full day kayaking trip in Abel Tasman National Park. The park is simply to beautiful to leave it after just two days. Continue reading Abel Tasman by Sea

Kayaking in Nærøyfjord
Just a few dozens kilometers away from Jotunheimen National Park, the weather was much better. So, we decided to go on an overnight kayak trip in Nærøyfjord. Continue reading Kayaking in Nærøyfjord
