After quitting our jobs, my partner and I hopped on a one-way flight to Asia to spend six months exploring.
Come along for the ride!
Journey through historic and busy China, beachy and rural Thailand, temple-tastic Myanmar, delicious and sleek Malay...
Reggae music blasts the streets of Ao Nang. The 1960s bus pulls a U-turn, and stops to drive us to the budget snorkel tour. Hundreds of confused falangs* await the Thai's instructions and colour-coded stickers.
Engines roar, water splashes and our fleet is off.
Blue skies melt into ocean, sandbars fade with rising tide, and camouflaged fish dart in front of snorkel masks.

Last stop should console the crying baby braving rough waters and blaring noise.
Swim and snorkel.
Rise and repeat.
