    Not ganna lie but i'm a bit jealous of Matthew's ability to sleep deeply pretty much anywhere in any situation on command. I travelled Thailand pre cov times and it was very busy with backpackers. Koh chang and some smaller towns and rural places didn't have many backpackers or tourists so it just depends on the places you go and koh lanta might just be one of them quieter resorts. I went to Koh phangan during full moon party and it was just rammed and draining for me and wasn't my scene so afterwards i went to koh samui to find some calmness to re-energise.

    You have so much potential with mauythai! As I used to practice it myself, your form was good!! Love to see you have fun and try lots of things here in Thailand.

    At some times of the year, in certain areas of Thailand, there are plankton that float around and can sting and make you itchy… I think those planktons can also glow at night in some places which I was lucky enough to see on an island called Koh Prah Thong between January to March-ish.

    • @HollyGabrielle
      @HollyGabrielle  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      this is such a dilemma for me too! my advice is to take as little valuable stuff as possible and to be honest, i just put it in a corner and keep an eye on it 😅 it's not the best solution but i've been ok so far *touch wood*!

    • @HollyGabrielle
      @HollyGabrielle  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      oh and you can also get towels not with little hidden pockets in the corner, so that may be worth looking into!

    Casually, I recently read an article about how ocean plastic pollution (amd sea pollution in general) is getting worse day by day in Thailand, being one of the top plastic dumper countries in the world (and one of the top single use plastic consumers as well), and how this is affecting the whole world's marine ecosystem... Have you noticed any of that in your trip?? (apart from the green water 😅) And any thoughts on the matter?
    Love your travel vlogs btw! 😄

    I got caught in a monsoon in Thailand and my passport was in my bag (I was on an internship for uni and was told I had to always have it on me). It got semi ruined. It was the first time being abroad without my parents therefore the first time I was responsible for my passport (I was 21 at this time and last time I went abroad I was 15). So explaining that to my parents was an event, though they found it funny 😄. I couldn’t exactly control the weather, and rather not get in trouble by not showing my visa.

    The stinging stuff is called "sea lice". It's basically jellyfish larvae. It's quite common in the Andaman sea, surrounding Malaysia and Thailand, and not at all toxic, though very irritating.

I am not into martial arts either but it's good to have some skills to defend yourself as a last resort but I wouldn't go around looking for a fight because that encourages violence and it's against my ethical & moral values.
