Koh Phi Phi = Not For Me!

So Sunday I flew out to Phuket! Spent a night there and then moved on to Koh Phi Phi the next day. Koh Phi Phi is probably one of the most beautiful places on earth. I spent the first day exploring the island, going to the beach, and seeing a fireshow that night.

The next day I went on an all day snorkeling trip and tour of the islands. It was awesome. I saw such beautiful things and got to swim up and close with the fishes! My kinda thing!

Now, here's the twist! I found myself literally sitting in paradise and thinking GET ME OUTTA HERE!!!

Here's the thing. At night Koh Phi Phi turned into what I would like to describe as a stereotypical frat boy's paradise! All over the island are these little shops to help you set up tours and adventures for the day. At about 8pm on my second night I was walking back from having dinner and I realized that all these tour shops had closed, but instead they set up tables in front selling BUCKETS of alcohol! Oh yeah, did I forget to mention, that was the thing, not drinks of alcohol... buckets. I'm not exaggerating either, that is how they were advertised. "3-4-1 Buckets!" It was all kind of sickening. Plus on top of it all I was staying in a 16 bed dorm room hostel. So all the people in my room just wanted to party and didn't go out until midnight, so it made for sleeping somewhat difficult!

Anyways, after 2 nights of that, despite the beautifulness I  just had to leave. Now, I am in Krabi. Another beach, but this is not an island so I am staying in the city part of town. I was incredibly happy once I arrived. The hostel I am staying at is the same price as the awful one I was at in Phi Phi but it is wonderful! The beds are comfy, there is AC and hot showers and nice hang out spots! I never realized how much a little bit of comfort can change your mood! I explored the city a little bit last night, but not too much cause it was raining. I love it here so much more. I already met lots of people. When I was exploring I met some women Pow, Barbara, and Da. Then getting back to my room I met Laura, Rebecca, and Neddly. I think people are friendlier here... it's nice!

Well I'm off to explore and get some breakfast! I hope everyone is doing wonderfully! Miss you all!
