- BACKPACKING THAILAND 🇹🇭EPISODE 22 (SERIES FINALE)📍RAILAY
And so I made it to my final destination in Thailand before flying onto Australia and it might just be my favourite! In this vlog, I take you to Railay which is a super popular backpacking destination on the west coast of Thailand. You can only reach the little town by boat and when you are arrive, there is lots to do! We hung out on Phra Nang beach, went rock climbing and hiked to the famous lagoon. I stayed at the only hostel in town called Blanco Hideout and watched the sunset every night on Railay West beach. What an amazing last few days in Thailand.

ABOUT ME🙋🏻♀️
I'm Christianne, a solo traveller, vlogger and entrepeneur from Surrey, UK. I spend half my time exploring new places around the globe with my backpack, and the other half creating videos about my experiences, what I'm packing, solo travel advice, money budgeting tips and anything else in relation to my backpacking lifestyle.

FAQ's
How do you afford to travel? - I now earn a full time living through creating these TH-cam videos, affiliate links, selling digital products and my clothing line. I used to simply just work any temporary job I could find to save up to travel! I budget the money I earn meticulously to reach my savings goals using www.backpackingbananas.com/pr...
Is travelling solo safe? - I would argue the answer is almost always yes! As long as you use your common sense and you follow your own government's guidelines about travelling in that country. I have made several videos on backpacking safety on my channel.
Do you have plans to settle down? Yes, I'm currently saving to purchase my first property in the UK and I'd love to have children one day. I doubt I'll ever live a completely 'conventional' lifestyle by society's standards though, as I often have my own preferred way of doing things.

I'm going to miss these Thailand videos, what an adventure! Thanks for letting us live vicariously through you! Looking forward to seeing your Australia videos!
Chris Parker has done so much for Thailand he deserves to be given the freedom of the country and the highest honour the kingdom can award
As a Thai, i couldnt agree more!
@@sun_s9067 As a Thai he deserves the best. When he taught Thai teenagers to love and honor Thailand with tears in his eyes I cried non stop.
@Jo Montanee สวัสดีค่ะ I also love the message he gave them on following their dream. Anything is possible. I played that video to my 15 year old daughter (She’s Thai born in Canada but understand and can speak Thai and love Thai foods) for its great message to young Thais. She loved it too.
I thought someone looked familiar ;)
Yes
This Thailand series was so cool to follow, thanks for all the videos and also your natural approach to vlogging and documenting your journey, Christianne! 💖
Thank you for traveling in my country Christianne! I enjoy every minute of this series🥰 you’re inspiring me to travel to these places ! ❤️
This whole series reminded me of the several backpacking trips I've done in Thailand, complete with the highs and lows. Felt a lot of nostalgia watching and this last episode feels a lot like the ending of my own trips. Guess I can't be too sad as I'm off to Bali in 2 weeks for a new adventure!
I am almost as sad as you to see your Thailand adventure come to an end. I enjoyed your series very much. I hope you can return to Thailand soon. Thank you!
ur series is taking me back to every nook and corner of Thailand i have been to. i really love Thailand. no matter how many times i visit, i love it even more.
I miss Railay so much. One of my absolute favorite places to visit and relax. I go back again and again 💖💖
I really love this area, nice to see that tourists are coming back again.
So nice 😍😍
I can't believe you're done with this trip! Feels like yesterday we were watching you pack and go to the airport! It has been absolutely lovely following you (once more) on one of your backpacking journeys, especially considering so many of us haven't been able to travel for a couple of years now. It felt pretty good :) Hope the trip to Australia was ok. Looking forward to the next one! (Whenever that is, obviously!)
Going to miss these Thailand vlogs! Me and my boyfriend are going for 2 weeks in July and your vlogs have given us some great ideas of where we want to visit! Also thank you so much for your currency translator things as that has helped so much to try and see what we can budget for!! 🤩
Yey! Bravo on an excellent episode to end you travels in Thailand. Really enjoyed every one of them. Just waiting for the wrap-up video now. Wonderful series. Thanks! 😊👍
Loved watching this series. Railay is magical I went there in 2018 and it's bringing back all the memories!
Chris Parker has done so much for our country Thailand. Love him the most.
You are always so happy Christianne! But can understand why when seeing the amazing places you go!
Absolutely loved this series!!! I started watching at the beginning of this as I am planing my first solo travel around this area and I gotta say you give out amazing info and guides. You're amazing 👏 💛
Thanks Brad 🥰🥰
You are more than welcome I'm looking forward to seeing your aus trip cause I've also been thinking about that
Loving this Christianne! Can't wait to see your Thailand wrap up video :)
🥰🥰🥰
Well done on the climbing and repelling and loved this video. What an adventure Thailand has been. I've enjoyed this series SO much and thanks for sharing it all with us, who couldn't otherwise have enjoyed such adventures for various reasons. Take care Sweet Girl and I'm already looking forward to seeing your adventures in Australia. xx
This actually made me emotional watching. Thank you for allowing us to live the adventure through your videos! I hope you are enjoying all the new auntie cuddles in aus
This has been my favourite series from you.....gonna miss the Thailand vlogs but looking forward to seeing what Australia has to offer 😊
It’s been such an adventure following you through Thailand! I’ve definitely got a few new places on my travel bucket list now ✈️ looking forward to the next series! 😄💃🏼
I'm heading to Thailand in July for 2 months + and your videos have been so helpful for deciding where to go and what to do! Thanks so much!!
Sad it’s over 😅 What an amazing trip! Can’t wait for your next series! ❤️ love from Colorado!
I really enjoyed these videos on Thailand. So many beautiful views and you have an awesome attitude. Thank you so much!
Great work on all the Thailand videos thus far, so very informative and detailed!! 🙌🏽
Looking forward to the Muay Thai episode and a recap on your expenditures throughout the trip!!
Safe travels and congrats on becoming a auntie!!
I enjoyed following along. A great trip, and a great way to end the series. Looking forward to the next adventure!
proud of you!!! gonna miss these videos, until the next adventure:)
Really enjoyed this series Christianne. I am just finishing a trip in Thailand (also went to Railay on my last day!) . Your videos were so so useful and we followed loads of your advice and recommendations so thank you!
What an adventure! Thanks for always bringing us along. Cheers!
Pleasure ❤️
Loved this video Christianne! I've really enjoyed following along the whole Thailand series! The climbing (both the hike to the lagoon and the actual rock climbing) looked so much fun. I definitely want to do that same rock climbing excursion once I'm in Thailand someday in the future 😍 I have watched some videos from Chris in the past and really enjoyed his channel!
Hi! I did the climb to the lagoon in Railey in 2019 so precovid times. We were the only ones there too but that might have been because it was raining all morning and we went in the late afternoon and it was drizzling so it was very slipery. Luckily, I had trekking boots on. Also, we didn't find the last rope ladder to go down the lagoon itself so after everything we had to go back without seeing it. Now, I know where it is if I ever go back there. Also, I stayed in Tonsai which is next to it and we had to climb over rocks to get to Railay everyday. I have some incredible memories about my time there too!
It's been awesome watching your thai series Christianne! It's amazing, inspiring and fun.. Thank you so much! 🌿
Thanks Charmaine 😍 my pleasure ❤️
❤❤❤❤❤
The Thailand series has been super fun to watch, thank you for showing us around Thailand! So fun to see a TH-cam mashup with Chris from Retiredworkingforyou enjoying his Leo beers as well! I have been following his channel a bit to explore some possibilities for condos in case I would like stay for some time in Thailand as a digital nomad and it is really interesting and helpful. So random both of you are in one video 🤣, wish you great fun in your next adventures!
Hiya, great video. Chris is a top bloke. Another great channel. Beautiful lagoon. Well done getting there. Good job with the rock climbing. Great experience. Beautiful views. Always good vibes. Thank you for sharing.
Stumbled across your channel a few weeks ago, really enjoying your Thailand vids man! I’m going in May and I’ve never been more excited. Safe travels dude 💜
What an amazing adventure. Awesome videos as always. Thanks for sharing
So sad to see your vlogs ending! I’ve been travelling Thailand at the same time as you and actually met you in Khao Sok a few months ago, and I also climbed with the same guide in Railay, he was such a funny guy! Moving on to Cambodia tomorrow, but heading to Australia too this December!
I watched the RW4U video featuring you about 3 weeks ago, interesting to see you from a different perspective and the time lag involved. Great mini series, I hope you finished the journey stronger than when you started.
Yup! Railay and Koh Tao are my favourite places too. I enjoyed the whole series of Vlogs. Thank you for sharing your trip with us x.
I leave for Thailand in 2 weeks for 2 months, I’ve wanted to do it for years but you blogs made me want to even more, can’t wait
We have been watching Retire working for you, for years.... We had planned our wedding island hopping Thai trip and then it was canceled because of covid last year. I hope to make it there someday soon! Love your videos...ty for sharing!
Going to miss these adventures look forward to see where you go next. Great video series. Love your channel.
I love your videos😍.. I started watching your packing videos and ended up binge watching most of all your videos.❣️
Railay is underratedly great. Definitely climber heaven. Thx for sharing the video.
Awesome, brings back memories . I was here a few years ago and a great place for rock climbing. I just got back from Thailand but not the islands. Will be back in a few months again. Great vlog as always.
You are inspiring me to want to travel. I really love all of your content and your lovely attitude. Safe travels!
Hey, just wanted to say your videos have inspired me a lot. I watched your Puerto Escondido video and recently came back from there, thank you for your tips they were very useful
I love this series, makes me want to go Thailand. Take Care and see you in your next adventure.
Loved these Thailand vlogs!
Am looking forward to your Aussie adventure... I am a Kiwi and have not yet hopped the ditch to check it out. Thank you for all your amazing work and sharing your travels with us ☀️✌🏻😁
Yes, I watch Retired Working for You! I have been watching his videos for the past year or so.
Enjoyed you videos very much, so sorry to see you leave Thailand, hope you come back to visit us again. All the very best on your future endeavors and good luck!
I had jelly legs just watching this. Rock climbing is probably the scariest thing to me. Well done for making it like a boss! 🥳
Welcome back to Oz, can’t wait to see more adventures
I enjoyed this series SO so much and ive watched every single video! Thank u for sharing this adventure with us xo love from canada
Omg!! I stayed at the Blanco back in 2019! By far one of the best hostel of all my trip😍😍
❤️❤️❤️❤️ can wait Australia … thank you sooo much to share your journeys with us 😊
Thanks, Christianne! I’ve been to Thailand many times in the last 25 years but never to the south, with the exception of Phuket. I’d like to see that area more when I retire to Thailand in 4 years but may leave the rock climbing to others. I’m going over September 1 for 2 months in my adopted home of Chiangmai Mai to work on my house and to see old friends that I’ve only been able to Skype for the last 4 years. Looking forward to your epilogue vlogs on Thailand!
This sounds lovely! Best of luck to you on your trip and during your retirement. I hope your move is as stress free as possible.
loved loved the series! ❤
So sad to see if end Backpacking. Loved the Thailand series, wish It never had to end, gives me the holiday ending blues. :{
Aww im so glad you enjoyed it ❤️❤️ there will be more series’ in the future!
me, currently very happy backpacking central america, but also thinking non stop about backpacking thailand bc of these videos
That's brilliant looks like fun. Also thanks for putting up the currency conversions, really helpful 👌🙏
Sad to see the Thailand series end!!
I’ve loved watching this series! I’d love a video on how COVID has affected your ability to travel and how it’s impacted this trip in particular
COVID restrictions are fading so quickly it’s honestly not worth making a video on it 😅 the program in place at the time made entering the country a bit more complex than usual but once you were in, it often felt like covid never existed. Apart from wearing masks in indoor spaces. There were some curfews which I think have been lifted now. Touristy spots were less busy than usual so you had a lot more space to yourself 😊
Great video wonderful Christie!!! 💖 I don't like I would game enough to do the rock climbing! As an Australian I am looking forward to your vlogs from my hometown of Sydney!!!
Loved your Railay vlog, super excited to post my Railay vlog on Monday.
Ahahha love it, i also always get a braid and in the same place on my backpacking trips! Great vlog, sad the series is over but can't wait for your next travels!
It was amazing! 😍🥺😍🥺😍 I loved the climbing! 👏👏👏
Of course I know; Riterd Working for You!!! I watch all his vlogs🥰
A few weeks ago I found your channel thanks to Retired Working for You. Excellent cameo from C. Parker LOL. I'm glad your cameo on one of his videos led me here, too. I enjoyed this series. It brought back lots of memories from my trips to Thailand!
Chris!!!!!
Great to see him in your vlog.
I only had plans to backpack Australia but since watching this series I really REALLY wanna go to Thailand as well haha
Loooovvved Railay Beach did it as part of an18 day travel tour with Tru Travels. Was incredible! And Koh Panghan was my favourite island in Thailand. Spent a month chilling there before flying home to England 😥
Railay is amazing and you are also amazing!! You are so lucky to meet up with our CEO ( Retired Working for you) on this trip!! He is one of the best TH-camrs based here in Thailand!!! Have a safe & pleasant journey to Australia!!
This was wonderful, but I'm REALLY looking forward to Australia!
The caves and rock climbing amazing . I do this here in New York. And to bring Al you together for beer at the end cool.
What a great trip CR! The GoPro helmet was a great call…awesome video from that.
We love watching your video ❤️🙏
I rlly loved this thailand content!!! I wish to travel one day to tailand
I love watching @Retiredworkingforyou. Chris is awesome! Chris and Christianne collaboration whoop whoop!
Love your little adventures👍
What an amazing adventure!
I looooveeeed this series cant wait for austrailia 🥰💜
i watch Retired Working For You all the time! So great to see that cross over between two of my faves :P
Love watching this
Going to miss these Thailand uploads but bring on the future vlogs! 🥹 Still can’t get over how quick those braids took 😅
Chris from Retired Early For You is great!!! 😀
Another great video, bummer I missed you, I'm landing in Bangkok April 24th. Safe travels!!
The last I went to railay west there was only a little shack that sold drinks and snacks. And most people there were rock climbers hahahaha we were the only ones lazing on the beach.. I’m amazed at how much it’s changed!
I’m absolutely about to poop my pants watching you repel (?) the sheer sides of these structures! I’ve loved your Thailand videos!
i am glad that you met chris ♥♥
I have loved these vlogs. I will miss Thailand too!
Epic Amazing Awesome Thailand Trip!!! ❤
I did that climb barefoot and i can say it was no good😁 but a really fun climb! Nice video.
So sad this series is over, I've enjoyed every second. I've just got a couple questions- how far in advance did you book accommodation? Did you already have a planned itinerary before going? And how did you learn to ride a scooter and would you recommend people riding them in Thailand without experience or a license?
Chris is hilarious. he's fantastic & highly entertaining. there should be a spin off series starring you & Sean yeah. he's as cool as a cucumber, he is like Keith Lemon.
See ya in the next one!! 🌺🌼🌺
Wow you met the legend Christ of retired working for you. Soon as I saw him I got super excited. Seems like you met the whole gang his nephew and his brother.
Loved your Thailand adventures, Christiane. Thanks for bringing us along and sharing your enthusiasm. Love the way you can mix easily with other people. 👍😊🇮🇪🇬🇧
Ahhh I miss Railey! I was there for only a day and I really should’ve booked accommodation there seeing this!! For the next time :p
Last trip! Been watching the whole journey! Cannot wait to go to Thailand end of October! How long have you been there in total. Chris looks like he'd be a good laugh on the drink! seen a load of his videos also
