Ta Prohm

This was the temple that I liked most in Angkor, it's difficult not to like. It's amazing how the trees hug the ruins that remain.

Some directors have used these scenarios to give life to some movies. Tomb Raider is the best known.

2 Nights in Siam Reap...

It was a childhood dream, and when I was in Thailand I thought: why not!!! And crossed the Cambodia border to visit the temples of Angkor. It was just amazing to know Siam Reap and stay in a modest guesthouse.

Angkor Wat was the first temple I visited and I was delighted.
Travelling without worries.
A country with many happy faces.

Wat Rong Khun

Near Chiang Rai (Northern Thailand) I visited the most beautiful temple in all of Thailand (at least for me). The white temple known as Wat Rong Khun.

At the entrance was a sort of lake with many hands, I came to know that symbolized the hell.

Karen Long Neck Hilltribe

In northern Thailand I visited this tribe who came from Burma. They have the custom of wearing rings around the neck and other parts of the body. The reason most listened explains that this custom prevented the attacks of tigers, but today, this custom continues to be practiced only because of tourism.

Their houses...
...and its little inhabitants.

Phang Nga Bay

This bay has the most impressive scenery in southern Thailand with its rock formations shaped maze. In the set of all islands we find the James Bond Island, known to have been the scene of the shooting of one of the 007 films (Man With The Golden Gun).

The Turtle Island

Ko Tao was the first island i visited in Thailand, also named Turtle Island. Situated in the Gulf of Thailand is a great place to do snorkeling, for who like :)

(Departure from the pier of Chumphon)


...but the best is the colour and the temperature of the water. Something impossible to find in my land.

(first stop at Nang Yuan little island)
