Phi Phi Island Tragedy

A dull ache in the pit of my stomach grows as I read about the shocking sudden deaths of two young women travellers, one Norwegian, one American, on Phi Phi island.

The cause of their deaths is still a mystery and there's a lot of conflicting information coming out. One of my colleagues at Phuketwan.com is on Phi Phi now trying to get to the bottom of it.

My first visit to Phi Phi was when I was 22 and our group had the time of our lives.

Can't imagine what their families and friends are going through right now.

The boyfriend of one woman, Jill St Onge, is keeping a blog diary of the tragedy: About Jill
Jill herself had a blog of her travels throughout Asia: Travels to South East Asia
Phuketwan is updating the story, and will continue to do so until we discover what happened: Latest: Phi Phi 'Poisoning' Kills Two Tourists
