| teena t01:26 UTC19 Jan 2004 | Hello, I have been spurred into going to Thailand again after reading a few posts, and shall be going around April, although my timetable is flexible. Would be great to travel with some others with children, or meet up along the way. I am 25 and my daughter is 2 1/2 , we are both easy going, have travelled around Australia, Europe and the UK (extensively!) since she was born, and look to have some fun! Would be great to hear from anyone thinking of travelling and looking for a companion, T

I am 24 and will be in Thailand in April. I am going with my daughter who will be nearly 2 1/2 by then. I have booked my tickets for only 3 weeks from the beginning to end of the month. My ticket was less than £390 and about 250 for my daughters, with Royal Jordanian. I am not too sure of where abouts to go yet, prehaps you have some good advice, but will probably head down to Ko Pha Ngan, not neccessarily the busy part but was there before and would be good to see again and at least it is somewhere I know, and close to Ko Tao if I fancied it!
Good Luck Yve

I have an 19 month old, and I am dying to get back to Thailand. I was nervous about taking him without my husband, but I will have the chance to do so soon.....Do you have any advice for traveling to SE Asia alone with a child? THanks!

| teena t19:54 UTC26 Jan 2004 | The only thing is that the toilets were a little scary! After Mi slipped a few times and smelt a little funny for a while now sometimes take a disposable potty with me, with bags that you change and throw away after each use, then it folds up and fits in your bag. I also take a bag of familiar toys and books so that she always has something from home to play with when the new things get abit over whelming.
Shall probably be off to Phi Phi or Tao, or Krabi and Railey Beach (cant remember if thats the correct spelling!) but its luverrly, around the middle of April, would be great to meet up Yve if you end up in Ko Tao, sorry about the delay in reply! Happy travels everyone x T and mini T
