A weekend up in Koh Larn, Thailand

What a great get-away from Bangkok! Escape the hustle and bustle of the busy polluted city and spend a weekend up at the beaches, away from the main crowd.
* A note of warning however: These pictures are not 56k friendly*
It all started off quite simple. One simple suggestion lead to the other… a weekend get-away was needed from Bangkok. You see, living in Bangkok ain’t so easy sometimes – life goes by at a relatively fast pace. Not to mention, the smog and the pollution really does do your head in at the end of the day.
So… a proposal was put forward by a friend of mine… “Let’s go to Koh larn and forget about the stress”.
Enjoy the pictures 
Dancing in Bangkok!

Dancing is the universal language that we all share. Naturally through dance, our bodies release endorphins which excite us and make us feel happy. Forget drugs and alcohol (which are depressants by the way…), only the body’s natural chemical can make us feel on the next level of happiness.
Update 15/1/2011: There seems to be some difficulty in uploading the video.. please bear with me while I figure this out
It is true.
Dancing in a foreign country takes some balls of steel to perform. Whereas the crowd back at home was minimal, the crowd here in Bangkok certainly was a size to gasp about.
Putting aside all insecurities and shyness, I took the chance to engage in what we call it internationally – bboying or breakdancing. As bboying makes it mark globally, the concept of rolling around and spinning on 1 hand is fairly new here in Bangkok, Thailand but I have a feeling that one day, this dance will go viral throughout the nation.
A picture is worth a 1000 words, so I will let the pictures and videos do the explaining.
Enjoy for now 
As a nomadic traveller, I find myself engaged in all sorts of activities made possible, all the while having fun. Life is what you make of it.
