New Year at Ko-Phangan and Child care services.
Each year , about 60,000 guests come to celebrate the upcoming new year in one of the biggest open air parties in Asia.We didn’t want to miss the chance to be a part of this and started to explore our options how to do it with a child. Taking Shai with us was out of the question,to many drunk people around, loud music etc..
Getting to Ko-Phangan from Ko-Phi Phi with child
After our family spend 3 great nights on Phi Phi islands we had to move forward. Our next planned place is Koh-Phangan , we are about to stay here for a month.Getting back to yoga, quiet and relaxation. I must admit we didn’t prepared to this trip, everything was so easy by now and I forgot to check transportation details in depth, we had some brochure that said something about getting from Phi Phi to Koh-Phangan with a ferry, but we didn’t check it in depth.
Thailand with Children-Ko Phi Phi-Maya Bay and Bamboo Island
During our short stay in Phi Phi Island we decided to visit some of the neighbor islands and beaches.
After looking around at local agencies, we decided on 2 tours. Tour to famous Maya Bay and Bamboo Island. Getting an island tour with children is bit complex , so we decided to rent a private boat for half day .
Phi Phi Islands With Children&Phi Phi Don
The way on the ferry, from Ao-Nang to Phi-Phi Don Island took us about 2.5 hours .
I must say that we were very lucky with our hotel location, it was just 100m from the pear . We were so over luggage, I could barely walk those 100m with all our stuff , I didn’t won’t to think about other people caring their luggage to other side of the island.It could be very exhausting, especially with a child.
Search for a family house in Ao-Nang Krabi.
It took us about 3 days to find a good place to stay for a month.Finding our Ao-Nang Krabi family vacation house was not a an easy as I thought it will be .Most of the places are designed for couples or backpackers which stay only for short period of time. To finding something that will be good for family with children , you need to get in contact with local people and be lucky.
Is Thailand local food Child Friendly
Is Thailand local food is child friendly , or will I be able to find western food for my kid? That is probably a question that each parent should ask him self before coming to Thailand.
You can find most popular baby powders formulas in local stores, they are available every ware and easy to find.
Yoga in Ao-Nang Krabi, Thailand
I started practicing yoga about 6 months before we started our journey. There is something about yoga that makes you try being a better person and concentrating on the good .At the period I was training every day , I didn’t want to touch alcohol or cigarettes ,I became vegetarian. The training lead to many positive changes in my life.
At the point we got to Ao-Nang I didn’t practice for about 3 weeks and started to feel fat and lazy, even started to desire for cigarette smoke again. I understand that I must find a Yoga place to practice a soon as possible.
Doctor in Ao-Nang Krabi
After a week in our new place our son got sick. We had some medication from home, but I’ve got prepared to case we will need a doctor. Eventually we didn’t have to use one, but after doing my homework’s I’d like to share it with you guys.

Finding child friendly hotel in Bangkok
While we started searching for accommodation with our child, we found that it is much more complicated than looking for hotel for us only . Suddenly there are more requirements ,and things to consider. After spending few hours in front of internet we stopped in mid budget Admiral Premier Hotel which was good located and met our criteria’s for child friendly hotel. It was the best hotel for us and we really enjoyed our stay.
