BACKPACKING THAILAND 🇹🇭 EPISODE 14 📍KOH TAO
Koh Tao is a small island in Thailand that is famous for SCUBA DIVING. It is one of the cheapest place in the world to get scuba certified and it is also a fantastic place to just head out on a few fun dives. In this vlog, I headed out with La Bombona Diving (gifted experience) and did 5 fun dives with them over 2 days, including a wreck and a UV night dive!

ABOUT ME🙋🏻‍♀️
I'm Christianne, a solo traveller, vlogger and entrepeneur from Surrey, UK. I spend half my time exploring new places around the globe with my backpack, and the other half creating videos about my experiences, what I'm packing, solo travel advice, money budgeting tips and anything else in relation to my backpacking lifestyle.

FAQ's
How do you afford to travel? - I now earn a full time living through creating these KZbin videos, affiliate links, selling digital products and my clothing line. I used to simply just work any temporary job I could find to save up to travel! I budget the money I earn meticulously to reach my savings goals using www.backpackingbananas.com/pr...
Is travelling solo safe? - I would argue the answer is almost always yes! As long as you use your common sense and you follow your own government's guidelines about travelling in that country. I have made several videos on backpacking safety on my channel.
Do you have plans to settle down? Yes, I'm currently saving to purchase my first property in the UK and I'd love to have children one day. I doubt I'll ever live a completely 'conventional' lifestyle by society's standards though, as I often have my own preferred way of doing things.

Your Thailand videos have been inspiring for a future trip I could take. I saw on your instagram that you’re in Australia, and I’m looking forward to seeing those too. 👍

[@CLsKoreaproductions]

Been following your channel since the Costa Rica video! Thank you for all the travel inspiration! Love all your videos! 🤩

[@WhenAdventureKnox]

Oh my goodness, that bird at the dive shop was just amazing. I wish so much you'd caught it wolf whistling at you Scratch that... you got the whistle later 🙌🎉 I've never scuba dived before so found this fascinating. Didn't know deeper dives used air more quickly, didn't know night dives used less - and it's because your brain isn't as active. My mind has been a little bit blown by this video! Love how at the end you say everything with the dive school was so professional - which it obviously was, but maybe we should put an asterisk in there for the bird 😉

[@benyoung5092]

If you’re still on Koh Tao then there’s an awesome dive site, Sail Rock. It’s quite a long boat ride out there but super fun to dive on. Huge chimney to go up and pretty popular with whale sharks too! One of my favourite spots in SE Asia for sure!

[@KattieMetChris]

Wow! It looked like you had so much fun! I especially enjoyed watching dive #4, so beautiful. I'm with you on the getting cold, anything more than 60 minutes and I'm ready to come up and get warm for a bit 🤣🤣

[@SaveUpandFly]

Great video, looks like such a fun experience! Makes us want to try diving soon 😁still on the bucket list

[@MillaExplores]

I really enjoy watching all of your diving adventures! This inspires me to do some diving at some point! ☺️

[@marengltk]

I love your choice of music in your videos!! So relaxing. I’ve seen many other travel videos with a kinda hectic/techno vibe and that just doesn’t do it for me 😅 I actually added some songs from your videos to my solo travel playlist

[@Wanneeeesz]

I went to Bali in 2019 for a month and booked my next trip in September 2022 (for long-term this time!) ... Sometimes in all my research and things i still have to do i get really overwhelmed but then i watch one of your videos and remember what i'm doing it all for, thank you so much :)

[@tijay8507]

What did Jeremy do while you were diving??

[@janellekoch]

You can always look into doing some specialties instead of going up to DM. If you gain a bunch of specialties you can be certified as a Master Scuba Diver. They're also just lots of fun to do. Peak Performance Buoyancy is really good, as is Deep and Night. They are super helpful to extend your skills without going pro 😃

[@TheCypherkey]

I can't wait to go back to Koh Tao. I love the scuba diving there!

[@J0ycelise]

I’m at Koh Tao at the moment as well but I can’t swim because of an injury caused by a scooter accident… I’m still living the swimming part through your vlogs now though. Thank youuuu😍

[@richman6818]

Wow!! looks amazing, great video 😊

[@walkwithtimmi2764]

Nice clip, Saw u appears on latest Chris( retired working for u) channel, look forward for Krabi vids😁✌️

[@billmccaleb7481]

I love your dive videos! Fun stuff and great views…Also, very rare that you don’t need subtitles for a Scot! Lol I hope things are going well for you…

[@NickyDunn]

Hiya, lovely video. Thank you for sharing. Have a great week.

[@juditginer832]

every time I watch one of your diving videos I really want to try it some day

[@BackpackingBananas]

You have to 😍🤿

[@danielkhalandovskiy3236]

Love your scuba diving video. I have never tried it before.

[@bethmeredith]

Great adventure. Great video. xx👏🙂

[@seeul8rwaynekerr]

Have you considered doing SDI Solo/ PADI self reliant diver. It'll really boost those dive skills and in many cases places that do such courses will allow you to rent the gear and go off and do your own thing too

[@donstravelsandrants.]

Well done on the diving. Amazing experience. Thanks for bringing us along. It looked great.😲👍😊🇨🇮

[@kallinixon]

@@BackpackingBananas hahah of course 😂 enjoy sydney, hope you get better weather than we've had lately, this rain is not fun. Ive only ever dived in the Great Barrier Reef & a couple of swimming pools, but I cant wait to go explore explore cool international locations soon hopefully 🤞 looks amazing!

Getting PTSD seeing these Titan Triggerfishes! There're so territorial! Great video 👍

[@lizthedisjointedzebra692]

I miss Thailand! We stayed on Koh Samet when we were backpacking around Asia. What is your favorite Thailand beach destination?

[@susanjones7389]

Looks absolutely beautiful 😍

[@immybreen1675]

I'm off to Thailand on the first week of April, I've watched your previous packing video and your backpack just looks perfect, I followed the link to amazon and its no longer stocked, I've been looking everywhere to find a suitcase styled bag like this and I just can't find any I don't suppose you have any links to any similar bags?

[@jeffreymore6799]

A divers funny. What our we gonna see while diving today? A whole lotta water

[@BackpackingBananas]

😂😂 made me laugh

[@bettyli6635]

As a fellow diver I was surprised you did your 2nd dive deep. Kind of backwards

[@rgmm8888]

Amazing!!

[@JJL3EE]

Is it just me out the very beginning of this video your eyes go in and out of being trippy teal to regular blue.

[@beatrizcuadradobenavent9336]

Have you ever tried the red lenses with the gopro? Do you think they are worth it for recording underwater? And great video!

[@TheAdventuresofPeteNoR]

That dive instructor has a funny accent 😂😂

[@VTK72]

❤️❤️❤️ amazing

You are as beautiful as a daffodil, as bright as the moon, and as pure as distilled water. Your eyes poplar home to beauty😙

[@adeelraiz8172]

Love from Adeel Karachi Pakistan.God bless you and your family

[@TheShauNanigans]

Scuba diving is on the top of my bucket list, but my ears pop super easily. I'm nervous about it, but I still really want to do it. If I can sky dive, I should be able to scuba dive. Right?

[@BackpackingBananas]

As long as you can equalise, you are sweet 😊

[@TheShauNanigans]

@@BackpackingBananas Do you mind offering a brief explanation of how that works? If it's difficult to explain via text, no biggie at all. I'm sure I can figure it out. I'm just curious how you might explain it as someone with a lot of diving experience. Thanks so much!

[@thanaang1455]

Unfortunately, it was cloudy day, not so bright under water, anyway still beautiful.

[@BackpackingBananas]

We were not so lucky with the weather in Koh Tao 🥲

[@squareplayn]

Why don't you say something back to the bird? He's so nice to you 😄

[@BackpackingBananas]

Hahaha he gets a smile from me 😉

How much was that 75 min?

[@PJL7095]

Flipping over to you from Chris’s KZbin channel… Retired Working For You! He has high standards so you better live up to them. 🤣 Cheers

[@PJL7095]

Ok… the scuba dive parts won me over. I guess I will subscribe. Don’t know if you are a soft talker or the mic volume is down but a times it was hard to hear you. Looking forward to binge watching more of your video catalogue

[@larsstougaard7097]

Yes love Chris channel

[@amiramir7190]

Your face is like the beginning of a poem pull me pull me like a sail At night to the beaches of rhythm It opens a horizon of agate for me The moment of creativity Your face is an amazing face and watercolor painting And one of the most beautiful journeys Between myrtle and mint your face This open book is beautiful When I see him in the morning He carries me coffee in his smile and red apple Your face tempts me The last poetry that I know And the last words And the last damask rose that I love And the last bathroom Your face, madam A sea of ​​symbols and new questions Shall I come back safely? And the wind provokes me😙🙏

[@sliduyzamnoyu]
