Koh Samui

Sawasdee-kap (hello in Thai)!

Quite a long journey from Kathmandu via Delhi and Bangkok landed us right where we needed to be… on an island on the beach! More specifically Koh Samui.

While we had originally planned to go to Phi Phi island, we opted for Samui because it was just easy to get to. Let’s be honest, we were burnt out and needed to shed a little crust so to speak!

Despite it being the rainy season in Samui we found ourselves with a flawless 8 days of sun. Because it was the off season meant that we were able to get a killer deal on a resort that we wouldn’t have otherwise been able to afford… that and things were quiet. I’m all for some action, but after a month of masses and horns, peace and quiet was a welcome change. This was paradise to the max!

For those interested here is the link to the resort we were at:

We spent our days sipping drinks, getting massaged, and eating too much thai food. There was lots of sunning and ocean swimming also. Everything in slightlt more than moderation.

In the mix we also found the time to check out a cabaret show. I have to say that this was probably some of the best entertainment we’ve seen as of late! These ladyboys really know how to put on a great show… Tina & Beyonce definitely stole the night!

This may seem like such a lame post, but really I have to cap it at that because quite simply that was the week for us. And believe it or not, it flew by way too fast!
