I've just got back from a 2 weeks solo mission travelling around Thailand. Mainly stayed on the banana pancake trail and had the time of my life and am itching to dissapear again. I basically landed in Bangkok had a few night there and then 'winged' it down south by train, bus and boat. Then spent some time travelling between the islands. Samui, Pangan, Tao.
I am just planning my trip for next year which is going to be longer. I am planning on getting to Thailand, spending a few nights in Bangkok then heading over to Laos. This looks like an amazing place to travel around with loads of history and seems to be the least 'westernised' place in South East Asia, for now anyway.
Has anyone been? How easy is it to get to from Thailand? Where did you get your Visa? Is 3 weeks enough to get to see this bad boy?
