We LOVE Phi Phi! When we were there in 2016, when the tide gets super low, the locals came setup goal posts on the sand and played a full futbol game at dusk. Sky was pink, water was blue, it was beautiful!

Long beach is the place to stay in Phi Phi Don. You need to take a Long Tail Boat from the Phi Phi Don harbour but it only takes 10 minutes to get to Long Beach. Much much quieter than in the Village and the beach is BEAUTIFUL. You can also stay in Bungalows with ocean view. Wake up, take a few steps and jump in the ocean. Awesome!

I'm the same as you with Maya Bay - been in my heart that place since The Beach and always had it in my mind to visit, sit there and listen to the song from the movie and reminisce about making it there after being inspired as a kid, but as they say, 'Don't meet your hero's', and so I've been put off going by the thought of it being a let down. Looking forward to seeing it in the next video though!

PS Chris, as you are a photographer, we used to either walk over the hill or catch a small fisherman boat from KPP to the place we stayed just along the coast. If you take that little boat at night time, you can see the fluorescence in the water as the boat and or your hand put in the water, goes through the water. Kind of avatar like to see that!

What’s really difficult when traveling Asia , especially in the tropics, is the frequent bouts of gastroenteritis. Sorry you are getting sick so often from Dengue and many many GI issues. Maybe you could share some of your experiences when you got sick. Many who watch videos could learn from your ordeals and maybe you can learn a few things as well preventing some of the illnesses that happen during the travels. BTW your contents are fantastic. The choice of music especially is really soothing and relaxing.

PS I am enjoying your Mexico videos on my first trip right now to Mexico. Mazunte stands out as feeling somewhat like Byron Bay in Australia kind of a place. I haven't got there yet. Mexico now, reminds me of Thailand 20-25 years ago in terms of the level of development and contrast between richer and poorer towns and people. I am curious if you find the prices are similar though for meals and accomodation between Thailand and Mexico? Mexico seems to cost more now than when I last visited Thailand in 2006.

Phi Phi has changed so much. Before the tsunami the port was just a wooden walkway and the village was only hut bars nothing, surprised to see McDonald's and 7-11. I will be going soon to Phi Phi in the next 4 months, can't wait. I'm glad I've seen the old Phi Phi and almost all of Southern Thailand before the invasion of the Russian and Chinese and Indian tourist. I miss the old Thailand as these western food chain spoiled the atmosphere. The walking street used to be mud lane not like all paved.
