The Salar de Uyuni in Bolivia is one of the most stunningly beautiful places I have ever seen. If you're into your landscapes, forget Peru and Machu Picchu, head instead for Bolivia and for US$90 you can spend three days in paradise.

Head into the Los Llanos back-waters for a few days - one of the most ecologically rich areas on the planet.

You'll be sure to see Cayman, Piranhas, Anacondas, pink river dolphins, and thousands of bird species.

Get close enough to molten lava to toast marshmallows! Only an hour and a half from Antigua, it's an experience not to be missed.

Buy a ticket to the volcano in Antigua for about 50 quetzals. At the base of the volcano you pay 40 quetzals for entering the parquet. Tours leave Antigua at either 06.00 in the morning or 14.00 in the afternoon.

We've been studying Spanish at the Cooperative School in San Pedro for three weeks now and it's fantastic! It's cheaper than anywhere else we have found, and all profits get channeled back into poor families in the community.

Learn about traditional Thai massage techniques as applied to oil massage. We did this very well put together one-day course and apart from having a fun day, came away feeling relaxed and happy together.

Chiang Mai, like the rest of Thailand, has a huge problem with stray dogs. How about visiting Care for Dogs, a dog rescue and adoption centre, a few miles outside Chiang Mai? You can see the amazing work they are doing and even take some dogs for a walk. We went yesterday and it is well worth a visit!

Doi Inthanon is a couple of hours away from Chiang Mai. It's a great way to cool off on a hot day - and it is renowned for its amazing views and wildlife. The best time to visit is November to January.

We're obsessed with our weekly massages in Chiang Mai, and have been all over the place trying out new places. We still believe the massages just outside Wat Umong are the best in Chiang Mai. The cost is only 99THB (£1.60) a hour, and you can wander around the beautiful Wat Umong temple before and after...

Probably one of the most beautiful spots in Thailand - in Tarutao national marine park. Emerald green seas, not too many tourists, and beautiful, empty, white sand beaches.

There's a video and podcast summing it up that some friends made uploaded on this website:

Lots of people come to Chiang Mai and do a 'package trek' - and see little more than a couple of captive elephants and the backs of other westerners as they parade through well-trodden 'Hill tribe villages'. Forget this, hire a motorbike and head into the surrounding mountains.
