Laem Mae Phim is a seaside town, between Pattaya and Cambodia. While you probably haven’t heard of it, it got everything you need to have a great time, away from the crowds: amazing food, empty beaches and real, local experiences.

Bangkok is a huge place and it can be hard to know where to go, while avoiding the overly touristy stops (hello Khaosan Road). Here our to-do-list in Bangkok, to experience things completely off the beaten track, and have a real feel of the Thai capital. The Death Museum (not for the faint hearted!)
Field notes
I began looking for eco friendly travel products while on the beaches of Cambodia surrounded by plastic waste. Even when, in what we believed to be truly remote destinations, the plastic waste is overwhelming. It is time to look for sustainable alternatives!
Field notes
Koh Rong Sanloem or Samloem is still this relatively untouched island, with lush jungle and clear water bays with white sand… a really chilled out, beautiful place, where you lose track of time. Our two-days trip at M’Phai Bay turned into ten, so we had time to check quite a few places.
Field notes
WARNING: This is a death museum, some of the pictures in this article, can be distressing. If you don’t have a strong stomach, I suggest you look somewhere else! Here’s an article about Bangkok’s Airplane Graveyard, where I’m pretty sure you won’t find body parts.

One afternoon in Thailand, we had a stupid accident ( it looks like this doesn’t only happen to others). We went to the local hospital, it was cheap, they gave us a brace, some medicine and we thought it was over.
Field notes
Koh Phi Phi is a famous destination in Thailand: incredible views, blue oceans, and long tail boats are the stuff of postcards (or movies like The Beach). However enjoying yourself on a tourist island like this can be challenging, especially on a budget. Luckily, we’re here to share our best recommendations.
Field notes
No ATM and only cash accepted on Koh Rong! Before you get to the island, be aware that there is no ATM on Koh Rong, and pretty much nobody on the whole island has a credit/debit card terminal. So, you better get plenty of cash before arriving.
Field notes
Clear Water Bay on Koh Rong Sanloaem would have to make the list of Cambodia’s best beaches. With water you only see on postcards, epic scenery and few tourists, this is definitely a must-visit if you are staying at M’Phai Bay!

Hoi An is such an incredibly beautiful place, but we also wanted to experience the other side of the city. The one that’s more authentic, in the countryside.
