Koh Samui

This past week I have been in Koh Samui, Thailand's largest island. My impressions? A little too trashy, too many old white guys with beer guts parading around with their beautiful youthful Thai mistresses, and music that is played way too loud too late in the night. Maybe I'm getting to be an old prude in my age haha. Or maybe I'm just a loner at heart and like my peace and quiet. But having said that, the beaches are nice and the scenery beyond the towns is lovely and tropical and I am doing what I came here to do... soak in some much needed sun and heat and swim to my heart's content after the wintery conditions of Europe (even though it was summer and early autumn when I was there). I feel so relaxed (and brown!) and am really looking forward to my sister arriving in three weeks time. I haven't seen her since the very beginning of January and that is what I am spending most of my time here thinking about, at least that is when I am not absorbed in the couple of great books that I have been reading of late. Love you Jenna!
