Thailand is a fantastic country, full of mystery, intrigue, excitement and joy. Two years ago I decided to travel there with 3 other friends and almost no idea of what to expect. I literally just said "yes" to them when they asked me if I wanted to go, and really had no clue what their culture or country was like at all. That being said, I think that going there was the best thing that I ever did, and I'm so glad that I decided to go, as the people that I went with are brothers for life and the experiences we had out there were legendary.

So what made it so good? There is a place in Northern Thailand called Chiang Mai where I went bungee jumping as well as going on a 3 day trek into the foothills of the north. After that we headed south to the party island of Ko Phangan. This place is now famous for the legendary 'Full Moon Party' that they host every month. The party takes place on a beach with different DJs all the way along and goes on from 9pm till 9am the next day.

Towards the end of our stay we visited a place just east of Bangkok called Kanchanaburi. This place is home to the infamous 'death railway' and the bridge over the river Kwai (which has a film based on it). The place is a chilling reminder of the horrors of war, and there were many memorials and graveyards commemorating those who tragically gave their lives. Though the experience was a little depressing, it made me appreciate what I have now more, and ultimately I'm glad I went there.
