Koh Samui Airport

I think this is probably the cutest and the most pleasant airport I have ever been too..
The indoor area is not existant because of its open structure. It is handling more then million people a year , but somehow it preserves it quaint qualities.

Koh Samui- Names on a Brick

Fisherman's village is situated on Bophut beach and is one of the most preserved areas in Koh samui.
Serving in the past as a french outpost of the island the village shows off its old wooden shop houses, mixed with some modern architecture and beautiful ocean vistas in between them. Here you will find romantic dining nooks overlooking the water, boutique stores for jewelery and clothing, as well as traditional souvenirs and knock offs of famous brands.

Koh Samui- SALA

 

After indulging in Six Senses we decided to relocate to a less organic resort. Sala Samui was right on point.We were recommended this place by a lovely couple Linda & Spence that we met at Sala Phuket and indeed we were not disappointed. Beautiful resort grounds, comfortable rooms, exellent service and a honeymoon treat made our stay.

Koh Samui in One Day

One of the days on Koh Samui, we took a scooter and went to explore the island on our own. Being one of the biggest islands in Thailand, Koh Samui is much more natural in its character then Phuket and can be circumnavigated by car or bike in just couple of hours. We didn't have any particular plan, and went where ever the road would bring us :)

Thailand- the land of smiles or the land of smells?

Rudyard Kipling, "The first condition of understanding a foreign country is to smell it"

Yes Thailand smells. No matter where u go, u will smell it. The smells can differ from the most wonderful ones like orchids and lemongrass to food smells( which can be also very different) to literally garbage. And it is not hard to imagine that money smells like orchids and poverty like a dried salted fish. Though there are some rich people in Thailand (about 40%), there also some poor ones that in a good case live with 200 Baht per day(6$).

:(

this smells!
