| island life |
Island hopping in Thailand- really anything you want it to
be. Luxory, relaxation, partying, anything goes. It is true island bliss. We’ve
been taking ferry to ferry from Island to Island. It has been great. We’ve done
cheap guest houses, a luxury resort (which is still only like $50/night), and
bungalows in the hills. It doesn’t seem to matter where you stay, it will
always be beautiful beaches, a nice pool if you're lucky, and it will always be
relaxing. To be honest, there is not much to say other than it was absolutely
relaxing and beautiful. We could have partied, but after a month of
backpacking and travelling already, we decided to just chill out and relax. It
was a much needed recovery before heading to Bangkok.

The only stressful bit was going from Koh Lanta via ferry,
then mini van bus to the other side of Thailand to the Gulf coast. The bus
drivers are INSANE! They drive so crazily, have their phone in hand, taking
phone calls, texting, and commenting on photos on Facebook. Luckily we arrived
safely to the other side for our ferry, but it definitely made the decision to
not take any further bus rides if we could help it. We booked the train to
Bangkok instead of the overnight bus. Other than that, the ferries are great and
reliable and we thoroughly enjoyed our Island hopping. However, we are SO READY
to get off the islands and get some city life in Bangkok !!
