Kho Samed - The End of the Journey

Koh Samet
Originally uploaded by Hol Riz

One more bus and a boat saw us in beautiful Koh Samet, white sandy beaches and dry hot weather. We spent a lovely few days chatting to some Chinese Canadians, watching fire shows, topping up the tan and swimming in the sea. The only complaint were the plagues of mosquitoes the size of dragon flies but a big spray of DEET saw them off and we were able to enjoy our last few days on this paradise island.

Finally we took the very last bus of our journey back to Bangkok for just one night, we walked back along Koh San road picking up a few souvenirs and Becky got her nails done hoping to make a glamorous return despite her scruffy clothes.

The next day feeling elated, sad, excited and tired, and with totally empty pockets we boarded our plane home.

15 Months after leaving the UK we had visited 13 countries, taken 28 Flights and had more awesome experiences than anyone deserves, visited more inspiring places than we could ever have imagined and met some of the most amazing and beautiful people in the world. Definitely one of the best years of our lives.

We hope you have enjoyed our blog of our last 15 months and we are looking forward to seeing you all soon!
