Hey there my Steemit friends. I just thought to do a new travel series that shows how I actually do the traveling part of my life. Who would have thunk it? lol Now you guys can see how a real long term professional budget traveler moves around the planet and how much it costs.
I was going to use these set of photos for a "Travel Adventure" post but instead they will be used for my first "Travel Pro On the Move" post. However I will say this, getting from Koh Pha Ngan to Krabi was a bit of an adventure. Koh Pha Ngan is an Island in the Gulf of Thailand so I had to take this ferry boat to the main land then a mini bus to Krabi Town.
The ferry was horrendous. You can see in the photos below it was not a nice calm sunny morning. It was cold, windy, and the sea was rough. People were miserable, getting sea sick, and a few were vomiting over the edge. Whenever I have to take a boat I always have my fingers crossed that the seas are calm. Over the years traveling I've found myself in some pretty hectic waters and have personally gotten sea sick myself. It's the worst; vomiting, feeling nauseous, and you can't make it stop, ugghh, just awful.
Fortunately on this ride I wasn't totally turning green and I actually did alright, especially compared to some others on board. The weather and seas got noticeably better for the last half hour of the two hour ride on the way to Surat Thani. This is where we would change to the mini bus and travel three more hours south west to Krabi Town.
If I remember correctly the taxi from my hotel in Haad Rin, Koh Pha Gnan to the pier was about three dollars. At the pier I bought a combination boat and mini van ticket all the way to Krabi Town for about 15 more dollars. So for less than twenty dollars and six hours later I got myself from Koh Phagnan to Krabi! The best part of all is that I didn't lose my breakfast on the ferry! Until next time -Dan "World Travel Pro!"
