Living in a treehouse in the jungle. Writing stuff and things. Avoiding tropical storms.

@GretaThunberg ”What is the point of learning facts within the school system when the most important facts given by the finest science of that same school system clearly means nothing to our politicians and our society?”

Fridays for future. The school strike continues! #climatestrike #klimatstrejk #FridaysForFuture

Back at my house now. There is some light rain but we're all extremely grateful for the anti-climax. Thinking of those that weren't so fortunate.

[TreetopMe @TreetopMe]

@CollardJohnnie It’s getting brighter. If this is it we’ll all be extremely relieved...

[TreetopMe @TreetopMe]

It’s not getting any worse. Everyone here hoping this is it...

[TreetopMe @TreetopMe]

Wind and rain building up, ever so slowly but steadily as the wind starts moving east. #PABUK getting real now!

@TreetopMe @CollardJohnnie @mrabonza @Ventuskycom Hi - following you because our sis in law in on the island ( she’s staying at haad yao bayview resort) You tweet and she doesn’t - so your updates are most welcome to her worried mum!!

[Jonathan @Koolimba]

Stuck with #pabuk in #kohphangan #thailand - no information on evacuation shelter on the island. We’re up in the north east at Than Sadet. Anybody an idea?

[TreetopMe @TreetopMe]

Until now the rain has been extremely light. As I write this it’s getting stronger and louder. Still looks tame. Let’s see how next hour goes...

@alexkidman @dr_nic @mukimu @neerav @SBS Things are just starting to get interesting here. It’s been calm so far but wind is turning...

[TreetopMe @TreetopMe]

@dr_nic @mukimu @neerav @SBS Surprise!

[TreetopMe @TreetopMe]

@CollardJohnnie @mrabonza @Ventuskycom I agree and am using Windy too. Looks like things are going to get crazy in the next 30-90 minutes. This restaurant is about 10m above sea level and at least 0.5km back from the sea.

[TreetopMe @TreetopMe]

It’s coming! Winds have picked up, shore being hit by 1-2m waves. This is about as rough as it usually gets here but apparently we are expecting 6m waves. #Pabuk

[TreetopMe @TreetopMe]

@CollardJohnnie @mrabonza @Ventuskycom That’s two beaches along from here but may as well be another country at the moment...

[TreetopMe @TreetopMe]

@mrabonza @Ventuskycom @CollardJohnnie I’m in Haad a Tien on the East side of Koh Phangan. At Beam Bungalows.

[TreetopMe @TreetopMe]

Alert just arrived on my phone #Pabuk #pabukstorm

[TreetopMe @TreetopMe]

Still a small minority that don’t believe the storm will be bad. People venturing out of the shelter to look around. One guy wants to risk it on his beachfront bungalow. Others haven’t watched the news...

[TreetopMe @TreetopMe]

@mrabonza @Ventuskycom Thanks. I’m in a concrete restaurant ‘shelter’ that’s quite far back from the beach. There are about 30 people here and we’re expecting more to arrive soon.

[TreetopMe @TreetopMe]

This is as rough as I have ever experienced here. Wind has definitely changed direction a bit and now we’re less sheltered. Feelings of excitement and fear; sharing disaster stories. It’s about to get real... #Pabuk #pabukstorm

[TreetopMe @TreetopMe]

Just did a Skype interview with SBS about #pabuk

Thanks @lottie_lam Do let me know if you use any of it.
