Freak on the leech


wow

so much happened
i have no time to write about everything , i'll just try to write about last few days

1. we have a huge jeep for 800 nis for a week . we are headding to bangkok and leave it there . we are close

2.this night we camped in koa yao natoinal park . after short dinner of what we had in bags and not dirinking alcohol (I hate you Stas) we went to sleep . Since Stas prefers shelters , he went to sleep in a carryboy of our Toyota Hilux ,I preferred the other direction of the roof and slept in the sleeping bag on the top of it. It was really funny when whild deers came to sniff stases face so we went to insidse of the car.

3. after we woke up and realised that there is no been in a local store, we went to a half day walking trip in the jungle :) I hate leaches , and they apperently like me alot. It was bloody (bloody indeed) experience fighing them , they are good but I have the lighter and I am bigger !

4. now we are in the ayutahya, witch is considered to be on of the pretties places in Asia , Stas enjoyed the temples , i enjoy the lack of leach and hot water.

have to go .

Doi Intahanon - Road Trip

Doi inhtanon, or whatever they call it, is a national park with a highest mountain in Thailand. We rented a car and took ourselves to the closes supermarket to buy some food and drinks. Stas lost a parking ticket there so cops charged us for 100 baht (about 9 nis) for the parking :) and then we went to find this forest.

Well what shall I say, this driving on the wrong side of the road is a little bit complicated but as long as you assume that the Tai people want to live ..

On our way there we took the wrong turn and got to some village with people who I'm not sure are aware of the existence of a highway right next to their home . somehow, we explained to them that we need a big temple and got out of their village .

The forest is cool, very green and wonderful. i have to go

Bankok once again

Well we reached Bangkok once again, this time by ground and water. Stasik got cold somewhere ( I don't get it how do we manage to get cold here, it is as warm as HELL) so we are sleeping without an air conditioning and we will attempt to get to Chang Mai tomorow. I'm really looking forward to that, because I'm sick of the beeches and getting drunk all the time and I hope to see some nature, wich is wery beautifull over here . We made an appointment in Chang Mai with a Rabbi from Puket, so maybe we will go for a treck with him ..

Ko Phangan - drunk day

Well I have to ,tell you about a wonderfull day wich i have had yesterday.

All started in the morning , around twelwe o'clock in the noon. I woke up to the sounds of brittish pop music, which was being played by the nehibours of ours. When out , I have experienced the smell of the bar : tobaco and not wery clean floor covered with beer. After the rest of beer was gone , i found a bottle of scotch wiskey in my bag. the bottle was half empty (or half full) and sicne the Brittish gyus dcided to drink more beer i was left alone facing the enemy of mine - an alcohol. As every soldier should know - you have to face your enemy and eleminate it, wich was sccessfully performed . untill the next morning i manager to maitain my blood\alcohol level in the right possition and have been drunk untill this morning (12 o'clock AM)

the weather is fine , with some warm rains and smiling sun changing places in the sky. i wish i could upload some pictures ..


love you all

We left phuket

So we left phuket and the patong city of vampires safely and made our way towards the Ko Phangan . The trip was pretty boring but we met some interesting guys on the road, on of them is traweling for 14 years and the other works for 6 ,month and rests for the rest of the year.

When we got to PhanGan we met some English guys who drinks as much as we do, so we have become friends. We have this wonderful private beach and when i'll have the chance i'll put some pictures to the internet, because right now the internet is expensive and i hate them for that

tonight we an the guys are going to a pool party dressed as girls .. let's see what happens.

anyway , we will get drunk.

Ausies

We have been drinking with Australian people last night . They weer drunk and they trew the money as of it doesn't have a price. It ended with them giving us their adresses in Australia, so if we plan to wisit Australia we have a place to stay.

A boutle of J&B costed us about 70 NIS in local supermarket. We had a small talk in front of the hostel with a glass of a liquer in our hands, just like the old days , Russian is always Russian .


There is a Rabbi assistant here, he told me that he has graduated his course and now he can become a Rabbi but he doesn't know what does he want to do with his life , so he is taveling around the world and helps Habbad's where he can. He is learning to play guitar so I gave him a lesson and have jammed with him a little bit , and then I went to pray with him. Nice guy, I like him .

some intelligence for the shopping in bankok

here are some places to visit in bangkok

portunam market

platinium center

padkom market - night

china town - just to visit ...

James Bond Island - Another bad idea

We are still stuck around Beit Habad. Now the thing is that places like this one usually full with Israelis and somehow, I was not surprised to see the ugliness of the Israeli culture . Nevertheless, we let a guy named Eli to convince us in buying a trip to James Bond island. a lot of free beer , diving , kayaks and all this can be ours for 1000 baht (not that much and not that little). I did not enjoy the trip much, but it was ok and now we have a lot of colorfull pictures made by Stas'es new Fuji camera. While riding on the boat to the island we were talking with some guys from Korea and tried to look as less Israeli as it possible, for not being taken as friends of those ELIRANs, who replaced the promised monkeys and did now show up .

A thought; there are some things that unite people everywhere . Here is a REALLY partial list of those:
  • Smile - an opened and nice smile will get you out from any trouble and will save you from the Suit and Tuk-Tuks
  • Alcohol - drunk people like to talk.
  • Tobacco - every single person whom I met until now in my short life smoked a cigarette in the same way.
I prefer smiling drunk .

Habad , tho are nice people . after yesterday's theological debate with a local Rabbi he became my best friend :) i wonder if he has a facebook ..

Phuket - From dusk till Dawn

Yes , same place ... do you remember this movie ? google it
This is the feeling that I have got while walking trough this town. Just like Sodom this place has its price for anything and probably has nothing descent except the money of course. When we entered the city we were surrounded by those vampires, claiming "Mista, I love you ... " . The variety is huge and I guess that everybody can find some sucker for his needs.

We were looking for a quiet place to eat and drink a beer, which ended with 10 drug dealer suggesting that we have some of their weed. As in every other place in the world, a 7-11 store cave use two bottles of local beer and some chips. I guess that we are going to stay here until Yom Kippur , ironical , isn't it .

My memory from the last night : Two underage Thai Prostitutes with tired smiles and ond faces dancing among five mature Australian men...

Another day - Phuket

Well here we are , took an expensive !!!!@!@!@ flight to the one of the most southtern point is Thailand , Phuket, and of couse we made the same mistake , we went with the Israeli organizer who gave us a place to sleep for 400 Baht , which is about 40 NIS . The room looks nice and Stas claims that he came to Thailand to see cokroaches and spider nets in the roon and we have to look for cheaper places . well i guess he is wright , bet "What has happen happend the way it did and did not happen any other way " © Morpheus , The matrix . anyway , I guess that we are going to stay here for a while and have out Yom Kippur here in local , yeah you guessed correctly, Beit Chabad.

We go out now , to have some drinks and troubles , in this order precicely.

Ahh by the way, the Thai airlanes are much better then the AeroSwit , and the toilet is cleaner , the food is taystier and the stuardesses (I begg a pardon, flight attendants) are much prettier and POLITE!

P.S : we love rahma 9

P.P.S : well i forgot .

love you all

Bangkok - second day

we slept in some the NEW HOME hostel for 50 nis per night. pretty clean and nice actually
Ukraine was not that shocking and actually looked a lot like the Russians in Israel. Everybody talks "na Wi" and does not have a sense of humor, with the exception to the border control. I was joking with the Sargent about life death and things in between .

Stasik finally rehabilitated on the flight to Bangkok . Their food was much tastier by the way, the movies and the sound sucked , but we had books to read.

By the way , about Bangkok , it is not that shitty. and they have air conditioning everywhere. but as Vincent Vega said , there are those little differences; for instance , you have to argue about the price about everything , and as a programmer , I'm trying to use the "lion in the desert paradigm", which actually works not bad at all . Told Stasik about it, we will see later if the understood :)



ahh by the way. they have a beer here , called "Chan". one bottle kills you and you have a headache in the morning. Yesterday we were drinking this "Chan" with an Irish and British dudes and I guess they won .

I think that I'm going start a blog.
