That’s awesome Matt. Did you see my post on carbon credits? Lots of those go to reforestation projects!

Thanks for reading Ralph!

Things definitely got a little sweaty. I think next year I might have to invest in a small standing AC, just for those two months. The rest of the year I’m okay, but March-May is just punishing!

That makes me so happy to hear Petra! Let me know how you like them. Having had a few friends start using them lately it does seem like they take some getting used to as there’s a bit of resistance on the straw but I swear you get used to it. Enjoy!

Having had the pleasure of being in Thailand in March and April myself, you have my undying respect for making it through without aircon!

Absolutely! I find that there’s nothing like getting people INTO the ocean to make them want to protect it!

Bummer to hear Rachel, though not entirely unusual for Southeast Asia. I’d definitely encourage you to give your feedback to both Viator and the local operator. I’m trying to be better about doing so myself!

I pack the house too but I HATE shopping and it drives me nuts to buy something on the road that I already have somewhere else. I’m not sure what’s more wasteful, that or overpacking :-/
