The sunset from Phi Phi viewpoint on day 103.
This is a little write up about our time in Koh Phi Phi, this place was hands down my favorite island in Thailand! It’s so small that there are no roads, no cars, and only a few bicycles. You are constantly being bombarded by beautiful nature whether it’s massive cliffs covered in moss jutting out of ocean or incredible pristine beaches and wild views.

A quiet sunrise from day 93 of the trip.
So I’ve been traveling a lot lately and quite a bit has happened in the past month. I finished bar tending at my hostel in Thailand, Cate came to see me and we traveled all around Thailand for two weeks, I went to Malaysia and now am in Singapore waiting to leave for Jakarta and Indonesia in about two days. Currently scheming how to find a job in Bali and live there for a month or two.

I spent six hours looking all around the island, got denied by eighteen hostels in a row and lucky number nineteen said yes. SO I am calling Shenanigans hostel home for the next month or so and it’s beautiful.
