In Thailand the glass has taken a backseat to what many of us would consider a child's toy at the beach or something you put your mop water in. In Thailand however a large sized bucket is a drinking utensil! With a wide variety of drinks on offer for your bucket, the most famous and widely drunk is Samsung buckets, Samsung is a very strong Thai whiskey, usually mixed with ice, Red bull and a can of coke! And is the fastest way to get from sober to legless!
Ease yourself in gently if you're keen to drink a bucket then the best advice is to share one, keep yourself in check, and beware of drinking more than one! They take a while to hit you, but when it does it might already be too late and you won't be remembering anything the next morning!
The shouts of "Alright governor" and "Oi delboy" are very common throughout the cities of South East Asia, and the amount of people trying to sell you a new suit or tickets to a lady boy or ping show never seem to end!
Be strong and try not to engage with the street vendors too much unless you like having the same conversation over and over again! It'll end up taking you an hour to walk 15 meters down the road! Just politely say no thank you and keep moving! Never stop, you'll be there for hours and end up walking away with a suit you never asked for!!
Bartering is a way of life in South East Asia, you can barter for anything from street food to rooms in a hostel.
To get a good deal always looked shocked when they tell you the price and give them a counter offer at half the price and work your way from there, if they don't meet you at an acceptable price then never be worried to walk away, you'll often find they chase you down the street saying they accept your offer!!
and do a diving course Koh Tao is an absolute Numinous favourite, the small Thai island of Koh Tao is a divers paradise, book a diving course and get free accommodation! Stunning beaches, chilled nightlife with fire shows and beautiful beach side bungalows!
Just GO, we're confident it'll be your favourite place! And like most you'll find it very hard to leave the island and continue your travels!
Throughout Thailand and South East Asia the local and most economical beer to drink is Chang but the morning after a night on the Chang and you will certainly know about it and you'll often hear the phrase "I've got such a bad Chang over!"
If you're going on a night out, try to avoid purely drinking Chang, try to mix it up a bit with some of the other local beers or buckets (just not too many! See point 1!) Ignore this advice at your peril!
When travelling in foreign countries your always more at risk of theft, opportunist thieves target tourists as an easy option. Losing your belongings and money can be a real downer but it's nowhere near as bad as losing your passports, travel documents or Visa's!!! This can really cause you problems!
There are several Anti-theft bags on the market but none geared up more for backpackers than Numinous Packs! Numinous incorporates 4 Anti-theft features in their packs including Anti-slash technology™ (stops opportunist slashing into your packs to remove your belongings!) Anti-Puncture zips (stops thieves breaking into your packs through the zips), TSA zipper locks (means you need no additional padlocks, everything is built into the bag) and the Numinous Shield combination lock (This is a great feature which allows you to use a retractable wire system to lock your pack to a fixed object i.e a bunk bed or a radiator in a dorm room, giving you peace of mind that you can go out and enjoy yourself without the threat of someone stealing your entire bag!!)
No doubt if your planning a trip to South East Asia you will tie up your dates so you arrive on Koh Phagnan for one of the world famous Full moon parties!!! 20k+ people partying on haad rin beach until the sun comes up!! It's an absolute must to experience at least once in your life!
Koh Phagnan is a small Thai island and has limited accommodation, don't expect to be able to just rock up and find somewhere to stay 2 days before the full moon party, unlike most places in south east Asia it is certainly advised to book a room a good few weeks before you expect to arrive or you could be partying with your backpack and sleeping in the sand! On a similar note just before and just after the full moon the small neighbouring island of Koh Tao gets very busy so if you plan to tie these 2 islands together its worth also booking your accommodation for Koh Tao!
Arriving in one of the craziest cities on the planet and for many the first introduction into the backpackers life can seem daunting at first, the pure heat and humidity hitting you as soon as you leave the air conditioning of the airport and hundreds of taxi drivers approaching you.
Go to one of the airport taxi counters inside and book a taxi to Khao san road which is like a mini backpackers town in the heart of Bangkok, here you'll find plenty of cheap accommodation, just rock up and ask for a room and them get onto Khao san road (the street that never sleeps) and start mingling with other backpackers, or find a street bar and wait for other travellers to approach you! This is the best place to find out other travellers experiences, the best things to do and the best places to stay!
Tuk-Tuks are the backpackers' favourite form of transport for getting from A to B, they are everywhere!! The sheer rush of zooming through traffic (sometimes on the wrong side of the road and sometimes not on the road at all) moments from disaster quickly highlights the fact you are no longer at home! The drivers seem to know what they're doing and it seems to work!
Try to avoid rush hour in a Tuk Tuk as you'll end up getting a face full of fumes and feel like you've just shaved 20 years off your life!! But the most important advice we can give you unless you're a real adrenalin junkie is never tell a Tuk Tuk driver your in a rush! You'll be going round corners on 2 wheels!
Lots of people dream about travelling the world with very few actually getting on that plane! Time is now!!! In the age of cheap airfares and before the explosion of capitalism which is due to hit South East Asia now is the time to get out there and explore before the 5* hotels start taking over and making the region less genuine and less natural!
Why are you still here? Order your Numinous Backpack, book your flights and go!!!
We are pleased to announce that Numinous Anti-Theft Backpacks are now being stocked in Go Outdoors for our UK followers. Happy travels!
