Happy Holidays from Tiger and Bird

Best wishes from Tiger and Bird for you and yours to have a happy, peaceful, and warm holiday season! Whether you are sipping a cup of cocoa in the tropics or putting another log in the fireplace in the coldddd north, we hope that you have a relaxing time with family and friends.

We haven't disappeared! As a quick update, viewership numbers for blogs and websites have been plummeting as people's attention shifts towards short videos (thanks to the clock sound website). So we've taken a step back to focus on real life responsibilities while continuing to travel. 

Our online presence may come back as time allows, but we will soon resume posting content on Instagram using @tigernbird! In the meantime, and as always, happy traveling!

Happy Holidays from Tiger and Bird

We would like to wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New year!! We loved our most recent trip to Koh Phi Phi and highly recommend a visit. The town is fun and lively, and Maya Bay on nearby Phi Phi Ley has recently reopened to the public. Yes, that's the inlet used in the DiCaprio film "The Beach." The movie may have been somewhat disappointing, but the towering limestone cliffs and sparkling azure waters of Phi Phi Ley Island are nothing short of magical!

Mu Koh Surin National Park: How to Get There, Facilities, and Lodgings

Koh Surin is a true tropical paradise. Wild, untamed jungle vegetation cover the towering limestone hills and cliffs of the islands, while marine life flourishes in the shallow waters of the coral reefs that surround them. The visual experience is unparalleled- white beaches of miniscule fragments of broken coral and shells set against sparkling emerald waters, vivid sunsets as the fiery star gently melts into the sea. Surprisingly, however, is that this particular national park is better-known for what lies under the water: what many call the best snorkeling and diving sites in Thailand. Avid snorkelers, Tiger and Bird planned to visit these islands and found November 2020 to be the perfect time for an ocean adventure. Our personal preparation for the trip began several months prior and included increased gym time and a daily four reps of two-minute planks so we could adequately tackle the three-hour-per-day snorkeling sessions in the currents of the open ocean.
