The family of a motorcyclist who died in a crash in Thailand say they have “suffered immeasurable loss”.
Corey Beavis, 28, from Barry in South Wales, died after a collision on Saturday morning, his family have confirmed.
They have set up a JustGiving page to raise money to return his body to the UK as he did not have life or travel insurance in place.
They said the costs were “unimaginable” but they have so far received more than £40k in donations.
In a statement on the fundraising page, his family said Mr Beavis “lit up any room he walked into” and had a “larger than life character”.
They said he had “so much left to give this world” but that he had also lived a life “beyond his wildest imagination”.
“He was a real genuine person with nothing but love for the people around him,” they added.

He described Mr Beavis as his “best friend” and his “number one partner in crime”.
“I will struggle to find a way to deal with this pain for the rest of my life,” he added.
