Exploring Ang Thong National Marine Park 🏝 Day Trip from Koh Phangan

BACKPACKING THAILAND 🇹🇭 EPISODE 13 📍ANG THONG NATIONAL MARINE PARK
After a look at Google Maps, we discovered And Thong National Marine Park and just knew we wanted to visit! So we took a day trip from Koh Phngan with Orion Tours and had a great day, sunbathing on top of the boat, eating delicious food, drinking terrible coffee, swimming, and kayaking!

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.backpackingbananas.com/pr...
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.

    Always really nice when you're the last to be collected/first dropped off, and I appreciate a company that uses lots of little buses rather than 1 gigantic one. Loved the diving board judging - of course Jeremy started it - his sarcasm is second to none!!! The kayaking looked amazing, getting right under and in between the rocks where the big boat wouldn't had fit, but the hike was amazing. The views even at the rest points were gorgeous, and lets not get me started on those monkey's... thank you for that minute of so of pure delight, especially the cutie lying on the branch at the end! ❤
