To Vietnam

A time has come to cross a border once again. Vietnam we are coming. The trick was that we equipped ourselves with eVisas to avoid border scams and agency fees and not every crossing accepted them. The closest one to us did not. The next one neither but we did not fancy another 8 hours […]

When travelling proves you wrong…

I was going to Cambodia with a perception of a poor country with no hope. A country beaten by genocide and US bombs during Vietnam war and the civil war afterwards. A country where shooting ended less than 20 years ago and there are still no-go zones, where a wrong step is a step on […]

Khmer Rouge

When going to Cambodia I had no idea how sad and at the same time interesting is the history of this country. This story partially explains why this place is so poor. In will give it a try and share with you. In 1975, after a civil war, the Khmer Rouge party seized power in […]

On travelling

Travelling is easier than I thought.

On filmmaking – first try…

We finally decided to start processing these gigabytes of videos on our hard drive into something an ordinary viewer could digest. Let’s be honest, 3 hours of diving footage may be interesting if you want to sleep but no one can handle watching all of this. In the process we learned a lot about filming […]

Similan Islands and Sam Roi Yot

After leaving the Devil’s den of Phuket we moved on to its extension on continental Thailand – Khao Lak. It is more of Polish Jurata than Wladyslawowo but is a stall fashion show and a bazaar. Still Khao Lak is the starting point to visit Similan Islands – another Sea National Park and supposedly Thailand’s […]
