  • Koh Samui - In this video, we share what we liked and disliked about this very popular tourist destination. Since we are budget travelers and fully retired, we aren't necessarily looking for an island paradise escape. We found Koh Samui an excellent vacation destination, but it may not be your first choice if you are on a budget and looking to avoid crowds.

    Thanks for this info about Koh Samui! We can fully appreciate needing time for travel planning! We are trying to finalize our December 2024 so we can mostly wrap up destination planning for the year. Of course that flows into 2025 planning, which I'd rather not get too immersed in yet! Where to next?

      Travel planning is a never ending dance. We’ve been doing so many shorter stays this year that it’s been considerably more logistical work.
      We are just about to head to Kuala Lumpur for a month, followed by Indonesia for a couple months.

    My favorite part of Koh Samui is SIN strip club in Chaweng, the pot shops, and the huts with sexy, slim and amazing girls in the Red Light district at Lamai. But, hey, everyone is a different cup of tea.

    I hope you stay until mid-April. Because we have Songkran Festival as a tradition in Thailand every year. You will definitely enjoy this.

      Unfortunately, we will miss Songkran. We did not plan very well 😂.

    Samui and Phuket are two most expensive islands in Thailand.

      Indeed. Transportation and food were expensive. Our accommodations were not too bad. You can find less expensive food if you go to local restaurants rather than tourist restaurants. That’s what we did.
      Thanks for checking out our channel and commenting. 😊🙏
