20 Years On: Surviving the Boxing Day Tsunami

In December 2004, Rebekah Giles made the spontaneous decision to book a holiday to Thailand. After a busy year working as a lawyer, she decided a week on the idyllic Phi Phi Island would be the reset she needed. But her relaxing break quickly turned into a total nightmare, when the deadliest tsunami in modern history struck.  20 years on from that horrific day, Rebekah shares her story and reflects on the tragedy.   LINKS Follow Ant on Instagram, X, and Facebook Learn more about Ant on his website antmiddleton.com Follow Nova Podcasts on Instagram for videos from the podcast and behind the scenes content – @novapodcastsofficial.
