SNORKELING REALNESS

Truth be told, it was almost four years ago the first time I experienced snorkeling at the very miraculous island of Balicasag, one of the nearby small islands surrounding the famous Bohol Island in the Philippines. Yes, gawjuss, four years ago! OMG! So now, you have an idea how thrilled I was like I even forgot to have my breakfast (actually, I really didn’t take my breakfast for photoshoot sake) before going to my (as mentioned in my previous post) favourite DusitBuncha Resort.

Well, it isn’t because I am a Filipino, but you all pretty know me, I am always up for the truth and nothing but the truth; when it comes to experience-wise, I humbly recommend Balicasag Island for a paramount adventure of snorkeling!

SUN, BEACH and BEER

During my last day at the beautiful island of Koh Tao, I took a day off like literally an off away from all of my social media accounts. T’was just the therapeutic power of sun, fine sand, flawless sea and a thirsty-taste bottle of beer. And trust me, it went so well. You know, amidst all the craziness in social media, decision-making skills and fast-changing situations these days, you only need that perfect moment of ‘me, myself and I’. And you, my gawjuss reader, should do this one also like once in a year or even as often as possible to reflect on the things going on around you, those relationships you have been dealing with and of course, to listen to your inner self. You would be surprise how wondrous it may be.

Because, at the end of the day, without reflection we may go blindly on our way.  That’s all!

DUSITBUNCHA RESORT KOH TAO

Truth be told, I always get fascinated with beach resorts most especially on how and where they built them. Such resorts astonish me every single time I travel. I was once stayed at a resort built on the top of the mountain during my trip to Koh Samui last year with an amazing infinity pool. Yes, gawjuss, an infinity pool on top of the mountain. Take that.

Thus, came to a very exciting visit to DusitBuncha Resort here in Koh Tao. The moment the resort welcomed me with their two enormous rocks bending on each other’s strength to serve as a unique entrance towards the visitors, I was totally blown away and I just couldn’t wait what the exciting things were inside the resort to offer. The resort was built on top of a big rock!

Enjoy!

So, the next time you plan to travel down south of Thailand, consider this as a sanctuary.

SURAT THANI, THAILAND

“Surat Thani” is the largest of the southern provinces of Thailand which mean "city of good people", a title given to the city by King Vajiravudh. And yes to that. In fact, during my three days stay there, everything was just so smooth and carefree. I mean like, the Thai way of perceiving lifestyle as chill as possible and away from problems and chaos, that’s it. That was exactly what I felt during my visit there.

Well, aside from watching Fast & Furious 7 for the second time around (LOL), I also paid respect to their ‘Salak Luang’ monument where everyone who is a first timer in the area should visit and ask someone from above for a very harmonious stay. And this, my friend, is such an Asian culture and I love it!

Similarly, Songkran Festival is fast approaching and I was so thankful to have the opportunity to bathe Buddha inside the shopping mall and no, I am not kidding at this time.

Enjoy!

P.S.: I left my memory card for my DSLR. Thus, all the photos are taken using my trusted Samsung Galaxy S4. Also, I forgot to buy at Surat Thani and here in Koh Tao, they do not have the kind of memory card I need for my camera. So, Lawd, have mercy! 

And to cap my stay in Surat Thani, I spent my last night there enjoying the native delicacies served at Siam Thani Hotel.
