Is back in Switzerland since October 2009... and life has changed

Bungee jump at the Last Resort

The bungee jump at the Last Resort in Nepal was great, a huge jump for my first one. And I really liked it. I would have done another one if you didn't have to walk all the way back from down the river, it took around 20 minutes...Read more »

Khao Lak

I just arrived in Khao Lak to go with Seadragon on a liveaboard diving trip for 4 days in the Similan islands. At least, I already know what I won't stay more than 1 night when I will be back here. I don't know if I've been spoiled with the landscape of the islands, but if the beach doesn't have a white sand, it looks ugly... Moreover, the village by itself, there's nothing nice. Why do tourists come here? Don't they want to have a better look of Thailand and visit the islands?Read more »

Ko Phi-phi

I just left Ko Phi-phi after spending 3 super good days on the island. I was a bit sad to leave Ko Lanta but it didn't take me long before meeting nice people there since it's full of young ones (Scandinavians, Americans, Germans, Portuguese, English, Australians...). It's really a party island, and except diving, there isn't that much more to do there (or snorkeling on Phi-phi Lai). But with the crazy nights you can have, you might go home with no sun tun... The beach party, and the Rolling Stoned bar are just amazing.Read more »

GPS message - What is it?

Let me explain to you what is a GPS message that you can see on my blog.

I had an idea to have a more active blog during my trip with the help of Web2.0 services on the internet. So the concept is that with my mobile phone, I write a SMS containing my current GPS location, which I get with my Suunto X10 GPS watch
(gracefully sponsored). Then I send this SMS to a special number and use a service on Internet to retrieve this message on my website. When a new one comes in, I create automatically a blog entry with the GoogleMap and my text attached into the SMS.Read more »

Koh Lanta

I'm in Thailand since almost 2 weeks and I really like it so far. After a night bus trip to Krabi, and a mini-bus to Koh Lanta, I finally ended up on a beach :-) Something I was dreaming since the last cold night at 5800m in Nepal... such a relief! The water is so warm... but now, after being here for a week, I start to find it a bit chilly sometimes. It's really easy to get use to the heat.Read more »
