Following masses of preperation my trip of a lifetime was finally a reality. Beginning in the adventurous New Zealand, before taking in delights of Australia over Christmas. Bali was next on the agenda, trading in the comfort of the West for drastic cultural differences of East Asia. The modern city of Singapore next acted as a stepping stone for travel over-land through Malaysia and island-hopping around Thailand. My Adventure finally ended amongst the neon scyscrapers of Hong Kong.

Thailand: Phuket

Phuket was due to be the last island Sol and I would travel jointly. We had our final beers here before Sol expressed it up to Bangkok and beyond. The beach here in Puket was also very nice despite considerable damage from the Tsunami, too. Tuk Tuk drivers (cheap 3 wheeled motorbike transport) were in abundance here along with countless bars and some very beautiful Thai women.
