Koh Chang, Thailand

15 januari 2023 - Koh Chang, Thailand

On the way to get to Koh Chang I should be by the minivan at 6.45 in the morning. Marc was so lovely to pick me up at 6.30 and bring me there. When we arrived there they said it was 7.30 and I had to pay 400baht. I found that a lot of money and ask a receipt what I did not got. Later on the bus I ask some else and the normal price was 200baht. So my feeling  was right. Than I had to step over to another bus and than another bus where I paid for that bus and the ferry. I got dropped in front of the ferry and could go directly on the boat. On the island I got the hop on hop off taxi to close by the hostel. The name of the hostel is Cafe del sunshine. I was just there for 5 minutes when I went with a group of the hostel to the beach. We are located by lonely beach. In the evening we went out, but I had to finish the party at 1 am as I really needed to sleep after a such a long day. The next the wheater was not that great but we decided to go to the beach anyway. On the way to the beach it started to rain a bit and still when we where on the beach but still very nice to have a swim. Back at the hostel we decided to go to play pool somewhere as there was not much better to do with the rain. We had a lovely time even that I played unbelievable bad!! 

The day after I went whit a boy from Lithuania living in Canada that also liked hiking and we where going to hike together in the South. The reviews about that place where really good! But when we came there it was not aloud to hike. So we started a bit away from the hiking path so we could say we had never see the sign. Arriving after a rough path on the right track there where signs every 100meters that hiking was not aloud. So after a time we decided to go back. We had a nice drive around the island, visit a waterfall, a mangrove, and a view point. 

The next day we went to kayak with a group of 11 people from the hostel what was really really nice!! And after we went together for lunch by the hostel!! 

The day after I went diving. I had a pick up at 8.30 I  the morning and I went for 3 dives from the boat. The first dives was on a wreck of 100 meter long from the us navy and after we did 2 coral dives. All dives where really amazing!! 

The next day, i had a really lazy day. I went to have breakfast fried vegetables with chicken and after I went on the swings where we stayed for more than 2 hours. The music by the bar next to the swings was really good and the view as well, looking at the the islands where we went before with the kayaks. Back by the hostel I uploaded some pictures on this blog and we went for dinner with a group from the hostel. 

The next days I have been relaxing on the beach, eating with nice people from the hostel, watching the sunset and lisening music. Soon I will go to Bangkok. At the moment I just extending my stay every night because I am enjoying it here but soon its time to go to see things again.
