Pai -first time

Well here I am in Israel, trying to put my thoughts together and to write down the memories, before I forget them.

This is a story about a town called Pai. We got to Pai from Chang Mai, using a tourists wagon, which actually was fast enough to make me dizzy on those endless turns and curves. Since we have arrived there with the goal of getting to Mae Hon Son, we were procedural and very systematic. After trying to find a "home" in the guest houses specified in Lonley Planet , unsuccesfully if I may, we just woked around and asked people who might know people ... one woman told us that there is a place that was suspiceously cheap, but we did not care , so after some prepareations and a new fan that was provided to us , we had a place to drop our stuff and two beds ,which served us for about 4 hours each during that night .

We went to find us a rafting company, and met a guy who called himself "God, but spelled differently" (?! ) . He was a nice guy, but we found a cheaper deal on a next door. It was a cheap company, without any custommers who gave us a discount and trusted us that we will be up on time , because "You have been in the Israeli army, I trust you " (big mistake). After paying the money and taking copies of the passports (for the insurance) we went to get wasted ..

The city seemed to be empty but we found some bar who was full of Spanish and British people . The chang was expensive and the music was cool . Campfire and free chaser after that .. no supprise that we did not wake up on time , but since the rafting company was not that successfull, they waited , and belived the bulshit we sold them ..

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
to be continued

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.
