This vlog perfectly captures the vibe of travel in Thailand. So often we felt like there was no option but just go with the flow. We quickly learnt that 2 hours travel time normally means 2-6 hours travel time. But when you're in a country that is so beautiful and where food and drinks are available EVERYWHERE then you can't really complain.

We can't help but feel like the people that say 'Thailand was terrible to travel' are the ones that just expect everything to be perfect... when you take your attitude and just sit back it's easier going, kind of funny and just is what it is!

3:43 A good travel tip is if you get a sticker put on your shirt for a transfer or ferry or fast boat take a picture of yourself with the sticker on your shirt. Make sure you can read the sticker in the picture. If it falls off or gets wet you will be glad you did.

Highly recommend it to anyone! I also stayed at the Long Beach Chalet in Long Beach which is right on the water.

Isabella R. Good idea. 3 minutes into this video , you see them at the Krabi travel agency which is like a transfer hub. Khao sok and Koh lanta are 2-2.5 hours each way from Krabi. You might have to wait about 30 minutes in Krabi for the transfer to Koh lanta. So not bad at all! Khao sok is incredible and rejuvenating. The south western coast of Koh lanta is the bees knees. Well worth the travel time!

Daneger and Stacey Fair enough! If I had any useful information to give about Koh lanta. Ban Saladan where you’re staying in the video has cool night markets (not sure what night, moves around) And the sporadic power cuts... The whole west coast is awesome which is where I wish I had stayed had I known anything about Koh lanta before going. There are some amazing restaurants on the south western cliffs which will give you insane footage, especially during sunsets. Foods amazing too! Epic Beach is at the very bottom of the island and costs 200 baht for entry. This beach and nearby bamboo beach(free) are the best.
