September 13th, 2005 - The Islands
The view from inside said beach hut
Well here I am on a tropical island in an internet cafe. I have been in Thailand almost a week now, and left bangkok after 4 nights. It was definatly enough!
I flew south to the island of Ko Samui, it was beautiful. I stayed in a little tiny beach hut with only a mattress on the floor and a mosquito net, but really that is all you need. It was litterally on the beach only 30feet away from the ocean. It cost me 6bucks a night to stay there,but it was meant to sleep two people. I spend two days there, just laying around on the beach. I got a massage (right on the beach as well!) for 1 hr and it cost me 6 bucks.
Today I came to the island of Ko Pang-nan. It is much more backpacker oriented, and I am staying in a lovely place, that is really more like a hostel than a guest house. It costs about $9 per night, (once again meant to be for two people- it kinda sucks i am on my own in some ways) but it is super super clean and a huge room with an ensuite bathroom.
I plan to stay here for a week, until the full moon party on sunday. These things are historic I am really excited.
Anyways that's all for now! I am off to drink cocktails for about 50 cents!
