BACKPACKING KOH PHI PHI 🌴 Thailand Island Travel Vlog
BACKPACKING THAILAND 🇹🇭 EPISODE 20 📍KOH PHI PHI
Koh Phi Phi is one of the most popular islands in Thailand for backpackers. I stayed on the island for just 3 nights in Ibiza House Hostel (which is normally pumping but unfortunately was quite dead due to Covid). I stayed with my friend Sean who I had met previously on this trip in Koh Tao. We went scuba diving with Princess Divers and saw turtles! We also went on a half day snorkel trip to destinations like Monkey Bay and famous Maya Bay where the movie The Beach was filmed.

ABOUT ME🙋🏻♀️
I'm Christianne, a solo traveller, vlogger and entrepeneur from Surrey, UK. I spend half my time exploring new places around the globe with my backpack, and the other half creating videos about my experiences, what I'm packing, solo travel advice, money budgeting tips and anything else in relation to my backpacking lifestyle.

FAQ's
How do you afford to travel? - I now earn a full time living through creating these KZread videos, affiliate links, selling digital products and my clothing line. I used to simply just work any temporary job I could find to save up to travel! I budget the money I earn meticulously to reach my savings goals using www.backpackin...
Is travelling solo safe? - I would argue the answer is almost always yes! As long as you use your common sense and you follow your own government's guidelines about travelling in that country. I have made several videos on backpacking safety on my channel.
Do you have plans to settle down? Yes, I'm currently saving to purchase my first property in the UK and I'd love to have children one day. I doubt I'll ever live a completely 'conventional' lifestyle by society's standards though, as I often have my own preferred way of doing things.

Your videos are soo handy when it comes to seeing what the Thailand travel scene is like sort of post covid. I have backpacked around Thailand before in 2016/2017 and am going back this summer but was really unsure what to expect when I'm going back this summer, but it seems like if you stay around popular backpacking spots it's still quite busy.

There are more tourists showing up all the time now! We just went on vacation in the south and saw lots of other tourists! (not the same as before covid...but soo many more than when we got here in December!)
I am a Thai myself but I still watch your videos in order to help me traveling around my country😂. Your videos are so helpful and gives tons of information about traveling in Thailand. Looking forward to your next video :)))

ผมพิมพ์ภาษาไทยเพื่อให้คุณรู้ว่ามีคนไทยหลายคนดูคลิปของคุณและติดตามคุณอยู่ คุณอยู่เมืองไทย 2 เดือนแต่ได้เที่ยวเยอะมาก ขอบคุณสำหรับรีวิวที่ดี ขอบคุณที่สนับสนุนการท่องเที่ยวของเมืองไทย ขอบคุณที่เคารพธรรมชาติของบ้านเรา ขอให้มีความสุขมากๆและปลอดภัยกับทริปเมืองไทยครั้งนี้ครับ ขอบคุณมากครับ
Omg I worked for princess until 3 weeks before you dove with them!!! I could have been your divemaster omgggg it feels so weird to see you in my former work space, I love it. You got a great divemaster though. I hope we meet somewhere else, maybe in the blue! :)
Every video I cannot get over how gorgeous Thailand is! I never would’ve known if not for you.
Been loving discovering your videos recently. My partner and I are about 8 days behind you in our adventures, arriving in Phuket in a couple of days. Thanks for making these amazing videos! Watching from our hotel in Bangkok. Can't wait to explore Koh Phi Phi!
Seeing both sides of you on this trip, you seem to be living your best life once you were solo travelling. I too am a solo traveler, and there is just something so freeing about it, just being spontaneous and living completely in the moment :)
Fascinating when I went Maya bay seven years ago the boats pulled into Maya bay jumped out and small area to swim but was overwhelming amount. Part of reason that Maya Bay was closed because fuel boat pollution and to help shark biology regeneration
Loving these Thailand vlogs! I spent 10 days on Koh Lanta volunteering at Lanta Animal Welfare. I suggest renting a motor bike and explore the island after Koh Phi Phi!
This is making me nostalgic! Koh Bida Nok was one of the first dives I ever did.
Thanks to your videos, my fiancé and I will be backpacking Thailand for our honeymoon in December over Christmas and new year. I could not be more excited.

Another great video Backpacking, you inspire people to live beyond typical social norms and do what in life makes you happy. Already looking forward to the next video, best wishes.
Your videos always make my day a lot better and I always feel so uplifted and motivated by your energy and confidence! You always seem to go out of your comfort zone and that has encouraged me to also go out of my comfort zone more often and try things I usually wouldn’t have! So thank you so much! 💛✨

I found that places Koh Phi Phi and Phuket were far more expensive than places like Krabi or even Bangkok, but I do feel like it’s worth it because it’s just so beautiful there 😍 (shame about the weather during your time there though)
I'll be in Koh Phi Phi in exactly a week and this is making me so excited!!! Thanks for sharing 😍😍

Mama noodles is a brand of instant noodles that is very popular in Thailand. It’s freaking delicious :D
Hiya, your videos always have great content, and so easy to watch. Informative. Beautiful underwater footage. I am very envious of your dives. It has been a while since I have done it. Maya Bay is breathtaking. What a lovely day. Great experience. Great video. Thank you for sharing. Have a great week.
Loving these Thailand vlogs 🥰
This place looks so picturesque I’m so jealous but glad that you got to visit again Christianne one day I hope to go too❤😊
Oh that looks amazing! I always enjoy watching your diving videos, they're so full of positive vibes and the diving seems so peaceful! The halfday tour looked like a fun time. 😍🙌🏼 So funny that there actually were sharks there 🤣
Wow a lot of people! Glad to see more travelers coming together. Maya Bay looks MAGICAL!
I am leaving to travel long term in the summer, and have been considering Thailand. So these videos are great for some ideas etc plus you seem so lovely 😊
Oh yes there ARE sharks in Maya bay. In fact, the sight of baby sharks coming back to the bay was one of the signs of the success of the closure of it all that time, in that it gave the ecosystem a chance to recover. I went there in 2003 and whilst it was good to see it in person, there were a ridiculous number of boats in the bay. Hopefully they get the balance right now, controlling the number of tourists but also still giving people a chance to go and see it.
You’ve really inspired me to want to get my Open Water Diving licence, it just looks so heavenly being in the water. Went first time scuba diving in Turkey and heading back there in September, will look to get my licence in Kas 😍🙌🏾
Phi Phi was one of my highlights, stayed longer than originally planned. This was many years ago though.
What a wonderful video. Was in phi Phi about 7 years ago during Songkran and was blasted with water from all directions. This video has wet my desire to be back there soonest. Really nice to see your videos. So lively and full of fun. Keep enjoying.
What a beautiful video. I LOVE sean's ring😍
The dives look amazing!
Great video. That was a beautiful bay by the way.

I visited Phi phi with some friends in 2010.. Lived in some cheap small houses and had ants building a road over my pillow. :D But it was really nice there.
I really love your zesty personality and posts, Wonderful. Thanks for sharing.
haha I get how it is vlogging on the go and when you get things happening like the guy shouting at the end scene while you're saying goodbye :D Great video! I remember Koh Phi Phi being a blur when I went. There was a massive beach party that rivalled the full moon party. I had forgotten even what the main town area looked like haha
Ahhh this looked so fun and bought back so many memories for me! Loved the video - thanks for sharing!
I’m loving this series!

Sweet time.
19:12 i watch all Phi Phi videos. its an amazing place. Had a blast in Ibiza pool parties and made few videos on my channel. Maya bay is so cool, i was lucky to visit 2 months before it was closed in 2018, and yea, we had to swim from the boat to the island as there was no platform back then. Thailand is amazing. been there 5 times. will be back many more times..
Love your Adventures ❤️
So the beach where The Beach was shot has the sand that you imagine when you think of sand and not the rotten stuff we get anywhere else? It just looked stunning.I’m new here but I’ve been working my way back watching lots of your old videos. Loving it.
Awesome video Christianne 😊👍👍

Hi Backpacking bananas! How did you book your ferry??
I absolutely love your videos!! You have the best personality you seem so fun and down to earth. I have a question (to anyone reading) would you advise travelling with a MacBook? I want to go backpacking for a few months in SE Asia and then onto Australia to do my working holiday. If I was only going backpacking I wouldn’t take it, but once I’m in Australia I plan on staying for a year or two, and need my laptop to work. I don’t want to buy a new one as it’s only a year old and has my work on it. I’m just so worried about it being stolen/ broken. Any advice would be appreciated 😊
Beauty!❤️

Your videos are amazing. I visited Thailand in 2017 and have been dying to go back again and visit the places I missed last time like Koh Pagnan, Chiangmai and Maya Bay. I’m planning to go February next year again and cannot wait. October to March still the best months weather wise you reckon?
I want to be there so badly! I live in Michigan and I have had enough of IT!!
Awesome vid! Hope your bananas aren't copyrighted XD
No sharks here... 🦈🦈.

Hey, I am going Thailand end of the month, as you seem to be visiting most places of my "planned" route, could you please check out koh ngai (the little arrowhead on the map below koh lanta) on your way back from Koh Lipe ? . It's supposed to be great for snorkeling from the beach, so I'd appreciate if you could check it out.
Mama is a brand of dried noodles
how much they charge for scuba diving and got how much hours?
let's go on vacation to Indonesia, there are many tourist attractions in each region. each region has a culture and tradition that is different from other regions from different regional languages and foods that are unique to the region. On vacation to Indonesia, don't forget to eat Indonesian food, but remember to be careful, Indonesian food tastes spicy. holidays to Indonesia exist; Nusa Dua and Nusa Penida in Bali Borobudur temple in Central Java Prambanan temple in Jogja Thousand Islands and Angel Island in Jakarta the peak of bogor with views of the tea garden and the Indonesian safari park in bogor, west java, close to jakarta Riau-Kepri and Batam are close to Singapore and have the same culture as Singapore and Malaysia, namely Malay culture and traditions. Raja Ampat in Papua the island of komodo live ancient animals that still exist, namely the large lizard Nama'y komodo, Lombok, Gili Trawangan, Lake Kelimutu, Mount Rinjani in NTT Tangkuban Parahu Mountain, White Crater and Saung Angklung, a musical instrument made of bamboo in Bandung Ijen Crater and Mount Bromo in East Java Sianok canyon in West Sumatra tana toraja in South Sulawesi Lake Toba and Bunaken Marine Park in North Sulawesi Wakatobi in Southeast Sulawesi and there is another that is Derawan Island, Maratua Island, Karimunjawa, Weh Island, Sumba, Jomblang Cave. ... ...
