Well, i think i've mentioned Vietnam already, so here is the next installment. I travelled from Saigon by bus to Phnom Penh in the middle of september, cost $6 US. Spent a few days in Phnom Penh holed up in the hotel with a severe case of delhi belly. Then took the $25 boat trip up to Siem Reap. Spent 3 days exploring the fabulous temples of Angkor Wat. I then flew to BKK, had a couple of nights there, and then went by bus to Hua Hin. Hua Hin wasn't too inspiring really, mostly retired westerners and a few seedy bars (plau a few good ones). I'm assured the seedy bars have to be pulled down by next year, but that wouldn't entice me back to Hua Hin. I then moved on to Koh Tao. Koh Tao is a lovely little island near Koh Samui. The nicest feature on Koh Tao is the small island of Nang Yuan which has a pretty spectacular beach.

I have been to Thailand about 4 times, Vietnam twice, plus also visited Cambodia and Bali. All this in the last 3 years so my knowledge is relatively up to date.
» Ask daveh a question about Asia.
I have lived here most of my life. Live in Hampshire, have also lived in London. Been to many places in the UK so should have some wisdom to share with potential visitors.
