# Cruising Down the Mekong to Explore Laos The Mekong river seemed like a perfect setting for our border crossing to Laos; beautiful scenery, green mountains and lush vegetation, what better way to travel from Thailand to Laos than by a river cruise. Our boat was lovely with ornate wooden carvings all around.

It was really busy and I didn’t think it felt very homely, it was an urban jungle. We spent the first day there in the only “hipster” place we could find which was the largest market.

After a very overly friendly taxi ride to the airport with a guy called “Harry Potter”, who gave us his “business card.” Posted by: [Alis](/content/author/alis/index.html) Posted on: 14th May 2017 Destination: [Thailands Southern Islands](/content/destination/thailand-southern-islands/index.html) Category: [Travel Update](/content/category/travel-update/index.html) # Campervan Route up the east coast of Australia I had a huge misconception about Australia – we arrived under the pretence that it would not be a more expensive and hotter Britain. We couldn’t have been so wrong, Australia is really lovely, I would love to do a working year there. We only had three weeks so we hired a camper van.

Fiji was my favourite place so far.

We arrived in San Fan airport only to have to wait another couple hours to catch another sneaky flight to LAX. The reason? We were going to Disneyland!

It is a beautiful city that reminded me a lot of Kings Landing in Game of Thrones. The city is called the White City because it’s made of white sandstone.

We walked a couple blocks to get our mini bus but it was late – typical South America.

We stayed in the Wild Rover (Hostel) again, the same chain as the one we stayed in La Paz.
