Jimmy set sail with us to Bali where we met Hannah, went to a water park, dressed up as Australians, caught some waves, and ate some crap before setting sail to Gili T. We then embarked on a boat trip for four days and three nights. It had no shower and Emma was ill for the whole time. Success. Once we landed in Flores we also experienced the most haunted of houses. And paid for the pleasure of experiencing it for one night only....

A holiday in the Philippines with some of your favourites is a dream come true. It could have been one of those things said in excitement and might not have ever happened... but it bloody did and it was #thebestholidayever

Arriving in Manila a day before, Greg and I felt like kids on Christmas Eve. We sat by the window watching planes come in hoping it was their flight. As you can imagine, once the gang arrived it was as messy as expected as we embarked on our 'Thriller in Manila' for one night only (it turns out we've spent more time in Manila than anywhere else in Asia... funny eh)

Next stop Boracay where we saw the fruits of the boys planning on the infamous White Beach... they were all dressed in leopard print budgie smugglers, a treat for all (or not). Things went from drunk to drunker (think Brits abroad) and it's safe to say the party capital of the Philippines lived up to its name. Our very own A.M.B even made it onto one of Boracays biggest club line ups. Sick.

After waking up with the biggest hangover from a few solid days partying, it was time to explore Pala(wag)wan as Greg called it.

It was quite possibly one of the most beautiful places on earth spent with the best people, making it unforgettable. Big up boat trips A & C. Massive big ups to Fran who raised two fingers to any bad weather conditions to get us a private boat, a crab seafood lunch and ensured we got the secret beaches to ourselves. As I'm writing this, I'm raising my Red Horse to you my tasseled friend.

Finally, to end the trip we were treated to our own private island for three days of ultimate chill. Thelma and Toby's island is incredible. We kayaked, we paddleboarded and we drank more Red Horse. Oh and let's not forget the amazing light show put on by plankton each night, that was a skinny dip to remember.

All in all, our friends* are the dogs bollocks and so was this 'holiday'. Next, Colombia?

*shout outs to the gang that couldn't be with us this time, but you better come next time.

Five days and five nights trekking through the jungle to see the best animal on earth... the video says more than I ever could.

Jumping into Saturday like... 🐠(ps look at that water 💎) (at Kawasan Falls)

This is Malapascua Island, or as I've named it, Shark Island. We encountered sea horses, sea snakes, octopus, so many box and puffer fish plus (you guessed it) Thrasher Sharks and the three of the biggest White Tip Reef Sharks I've ever seen. Mega. And we saw this crazy shrimp thing running along the sea bed. 🦐 Next up, the sardine run off the coast of Moalboal 🤙🏼(I'm doing this emoji in RL all the time and I'm ok with it). 🦈🦈🦈 (at Malapascua Island)

Wavey dons 🏄🏻🏄🏼‍♀️ (at Bali, Indonesia)

We took our advanced PADI course in the most incredible place on earth, Komodo National Park. Untouched rainbow coloured coral, thousands of fish, hundreds of turtles and sharks... plus whatever else decides to pop in (there were a couple of lost blue whales in the park and a few manatees while we were there but we didn't get to say hello). I can't begin to tell you what an amazing place this is. To dive and see sharks, then to come up to the surface to see a couple of Komodo Dragons chilling on the beach is as mad as it sounds. Plus the currents are CRAZY fun. And, I've got the perfect dive buddy (as in we use air at the same rate...😂). Next up, we're back to Bali where I'll be learning to stand on a surf board 🤙🏼🏄🏼‍♀️🏄🏻 #komodo #scubadiving #padi (at Labuan Bajo, Flores - Indonesia)
