Russian mate goes to Koh Phangan

Part 1

What's up world!

Share my experience of staying in Thailand  for 1,5 months. I had an incredible, vivid trip and great time spent there.

It all started when I met open-minded people who changed my world perspective. I've been changing constantly  but that opportunity had even a better impact on me.

They showed me a different world full of magic and positive.

In a month after having met those guys, I decided to buy a one-way ticket to Thailand.

(Domodedovo airport, Russia)

My destination was Koh Phangan island where a community of people who earn money online had its headquarters.

About 70 people were in the community and spent their winter chilling on the island. Mostly Russians.

My flight lasted a bit long like 28 hours with transfers in Dubai, Hong Kong and finally in Bangkok.

(Arrival in Bangkok)

During transfer in Hong Kong I went in the downtown and spent great time walking sightseeing.

When I arrived in BKK at 2 a.m., there was no train to the city from the airport so I took a taxi and headed to the bus station.

I didn't expect I would ride in a small van 700 km, trying to get some sleep while the driver was doing the dash and it seemed we were flying above the road a bit. Scary thing.

I was delivered to Surat Thani to take a ferry to the island, had to wait 3 hours before landing.

On boat I was enjoying 360 view, sun was touching everyone softly in partnership with calm sea breeze.

There were many people, each had their own story and expectations from the island. I was going to feel the love of it.

Come sailing to the island I had nausea.

Finally we tied up at the pierce and Dmitry, a fella from the community met me.

I arrived at night only checked in the rented apartment and enjoyed some time sitting in the chair listening to some relax music and fell asleep.

(Good vibes)
