bye dirty city, hello bus ride x SOUTH THAILAND.
- Bye bye Bangkok! We're done with you for good! Me and Natalia took the bus down south to.... Koh Tao!
tuktuk x BANGKOK, THAILAND.
- Last day in Bangkok. Couldn't be more excited to leave that crazy dirty big city and go south to the beaches on the islands and meet up with friends.
on a ferry x BANGKOK, THAILAND.
- In Bangkok: met a cool old american photographer who I took a ferry around the city with. Got lost in my neighborhood, went for a bit of shopping, reunion with my american friend Natalia from Koh Rong and one more visit to the hospital.
john lennon sunnies x BANGKOK, THAILAND.
- Went back to Bangkok and found these big John Lennon sunnies. Love them!
around the island x KOH CHANG, THAILAND.
- One day me and my south american friends rented scooters and were driving around the island for hours exploring. I had to have a plastic bag on my foot when we went down to check out some beaches.
Finished the with live music outhside our accommodation.
after the hospital x KOH CHANG, THAILAND.
- The same day I left Koh Rong I stepped on a nail in the sand while running after my friend to say bye. After a few days it got infected and I had to go to the hospital three times. The first time was the worst.
She cut up the skin around the hole in my left foot, cleaned it and then she had to se if there was any dirt in the hole. Guess what she did?
Without ANY kinds of painkillers, she putted cold scissors tong inside the hole and then opened it up from inside! Holy...! That was the worst pain I've ever fellt.
When I left the hospital there was no way of me walking around and exploring the island by foot. So the first day I just had to relax and drink smoothies at my favourite cafe/restaurant with some god company from a german guy and this little girl (on the photo above).
She never wanted to talk or smile though... But I got a few good shoots of her at least!
good bye cambodia x SIHANOUKVILLE, CAMBODIA.
- The 27th of march was the last day for me in Cambodia. What a nice place. But the world's big and life's short. New things and places needs to be discovered!
Loving life!
the last hour on my island x KOH RONG, CAMBODIA.
- Here my firends, the very last photos from when I lived on the beautiful cambodian island Koh Rong.

Yesterday we arrived in Cebu and went straight to my lovely american yoga friend Marcie. Me and Marcie had almost a whole week in cozy Hoi An in Vietnam a while ago. So happy to be here, visiting her, doing some yoga in the evening, salsa in the night and running in the morning. How good isnt that?
And soon we're going on some adventures outh in the nature for a few days.

last morning shift at bamboo x KOH RONG, CAMBODIA.
- The very last day at Bamboo Bungalows... I had the breakfast shift and loved it. Didn't have to do much at all, as you can se on the photos... Hahah. Just chilling in the bar, making some coffees, chatting to friends and playing with my phone.
"No worries, It's all good." and I continued just being lazy and happy.
Thanks guys for a wonderful 1.5 month on the paradise island Koh Rong in Cambodia.
long beach w. callum x KOH RONG, CAMBODIA.
- Hi loved ones. My one and only love (my laptop) is sick. Really sick. So sick that I can't even do a system reset and clear the shit. Or maybe that's possible. But in that way I know, it's not working.
Gotta find a good computer nerd, hopefully a swedish one (my laptop is in swedish..) that can help me fix it. Or in worst case, just go to a electronic/computer shop and let the asians play with it.

i'm back in the water!! x KOH TAO, THAILAND.
- Hi again. What a great start on the day. After a sleep over with Clare at Toma and Blakes hotelroom, me and Blake took the scooter to the Fitness Cafe and had an amazing breakfast and some organic coffee.
I finally got to go in the ocean again with my foot. What a wonderful feeling. As some of you know, I love the ocean and the energy from it. But after my accident the 26th of feb, I haven't been in the water at all which have been a struggle when I've only been on islands since then.
But to celebrate that my foot was ready for the saltwater, me, Toma & Blake decided to do SUP - Stand up paddle. We went out for an hour and saw Koh Tao from a different angle. After that we went for a big lunch and coconut shake.

feelings & thoughts from south x UPDATE, KOH TAO, THAI.
- So here I am. Sitting at really nice place on the beach. Drinking ice coffe and listening to the oceans music and watching people getting tanned on the sand. Boats driving past and hanging out with some american and canadian boys. But still I feel, there's something missing. It feels in my heart and in my stomach. My soul is trying to tell me something. Maybe that I might be at the wrong place. Maybe I shouldn't be here right now?
After been to some of the most beautiful beaches in the world with really close friends, it's hard to enjoy other things. I mean, it's beautiful here too. But not even close to Koh rongs beaches or Whitsundays in Australia.

The people/locals have so much angry in their bodies, backpackers are living on alcohol and drugs and it's expensive to me south east Asia...
And worst of all, soooo turisty and the locals will do anything to scam you.
Bad energy is flowing around. I just got that wierd feeling...
But soon I'll be at the place I've been waiting for with the friends that are the closest to me from this trip.

the fire's dead x KOH RONG, CAMBODIA.
- And here's the last photos from how everything looked after the fire. Or maybe not everything. But the worst part of it. So sad...
feeling after the fire x KOH RONG, CAMBODIA.
- The same morning we had the fire everyone was in a wierd mood. I can't describe the feeling. But in the same time we all who work on the island got even closer to eachother. Khemer locals, kids, westerns staff and our guests which was beautiful to see.
The photos above are from Bongs, hanging out with some friends. The girls are playing with the Bong puppy and talking about people loosing their stuff in the fire while Chris, a brittish friend I went trekking with in Lombok a few months ago, cuddles with two kittens after loosing their mum in the fire.
we survived the fire x KOH RONG, CAMBODIA.
- Hi guys. Do you remember me telling you about crazy fire we survived when I lived in Cambodia on the island Koh Rong?
Well, here's the photos from when it happened. We were sooo lucky that only one got to the hospital and that my job didn't got destroyed in the fire.
A morning I'll never forget.

Got myself two sport bras and a pair of big John Lennon sunglasses on a market.

Watermelon have been my drug of the day and I decided to play the nurse myself today and try to fix my foot from my accident. It's getting better so I THINK I can manage to take care of my foot by myself now.
By the way, the puppies are up on the blog again as you can see. Not the same ones from last time though. Looooovey lovely puppies I so wanted to kidnap in to my bag...
long beach x KOH RONG, CAMBODIA.
- One day before I started to work at the island, me and a french boy decided to get a work out and in the same time explore another part of Koh Rong.
