Gambling with lives – video

Steev

I was going to write a post around this - but it is so powerful - I knew I didn't have the words ...

Gambling with lives has recently been set up in the UK and published this video in the summer of 2019.

A powerful message.

Scars, Buses, and Pho: How Saigon Made Me a Traveller

I think it was in Ho Chi Minh City, (Saigon) that I grew into being a traveller. I was crossing the road at a busy intersection and walked decisively, watching where I was going as the motorcycles flowed past me, and as I got to the other side I thought – yep, I’m a traveller now.

What was I thinking when I booked this place? Is this a question or an exclamation? Both fit. I knew I didn’t want to be in the centre of Ao Nang, loud crowds, thumping music wasn’t my scene (even if the cheap beer was.) But Krabi, the larger town, seemed just that bit too far away, so I looked for something in between.

Railay Beach, Thailand: beautiful, busy and not for me.

This post is a little out of sequence. You left me looking after cats in Hungary, now I’m falling out with longtail boats in Thailand. I will talk about my arrival in Krabi in the next post – but this story insisted on being told first.
