VISIT AN ETHICAL ELEPHANT SANCTUARY

 

 

Is it everyone’s dream to visit an elephant sanctuary or is it just me? You’ve got trunk and you’ve eaten delicious food. It's now time to spend the day at an elephant sanctuary learning, feeding and looking after these beautiful but most certainly cheeky creatures whilst they roam free in their natural habitat. A heartwarming experience you do not want to miss out on! If you head to Thailand make sure the elephant sanctuary you visit is ethical, caring and not for tourism. NO RIDING ELEPHANTS OK? Good, we knew you wouldn’t.

 

 

KICK ASS IN A MUAY THAI CLASS

 

 

Are you ready to take the ring? Muay Thai.. It’s a skill, it’s intense, it’s sweaty and we’re here for it!

Just like after one too many drinks, practising this skill will leave you capable of moving your body in ways you could never imagine.. So get your best trainers on, it's time to work up a major sweat and kick away the hangover, we dare you!
