A Family Visit

Mum came to visit for a couple of weeks.  I swear she travels more than I do! We met in Koh Samui for some shopping (Chandra is an awesome store that sells clothes from India and Bali as well as their own stuff but it isn't cheap...) and then we went back to stay in Koh Phangan as I was finishing up my teacher training... We lived it up at the Centara hotel.  A bit of comfort after 4 weeks in a wooden hut was a welcome change!

Nice sunset from the boat Samui - Koh Phangan

Then we flew up to BKK to the hustle and bustle.. I was there the year before with Ali and loved it but I think because I had been chilling out on the islands for a month I didn't enjoy it this time. Too loud, too busy, too crazy, too much family time... eek...

Ahhhh, massage time!

Then before going back to the island, I got to stay in luxury at the Dusit Thani with Charlotte for a few days... Thank you Charlotte it was so nice to be in luxury!  (Ermmm I mean so nice to stay in luxury)

Then it was back to the island for some more fun where I met the animali!!
