Back to life!

After three blissful weeks of beautiful coastlines on the Andaman and Gulf of Thailand coasts we head back north to Bangkok. To be honest the beachlife is not for us. And as beautiful as the beaches are here in the south, the city beckons, with it’s cosmopolitan nature, the diversity of food, being
able to get lost and not meet the same people wherever you go.

So we said goodbye to Koh Tao and boarded the ferry to Chumphon, a bus from the ferry terminal dropped us off right opposite the train station where we sit right now whiling away a couple of hours before catching the overnight train to BKK.

Reflecting back on the last three weeks:

The best times were on the Andaman coast on and around Railay;

the worst, staying in the dead Krabi Town;

the peaceful, on the deserted beaches of Koh Lanta;

the serene, the only day just at the beach on Phrangan;

the funniest, seeing people out of their heads at the Full Moon Party and

the exhilarating, abseiling from a karst; and

the excruciating, watching Thai boxing last night!
