Welcome to August 2018

Welcome to August 2018

It's a new day, it's a new dawn, it's a new life, ah, well, it's for sure a new month so Welcome to August 2018.

The last three versions of August were not what you expect in August. They were windy and had lots of rain. Four years ago it was more like, nice and sunny.

Let's hope this years version is a good one although the start is not promising. Strong wind with plenty of rain is predicted.

This morning looks glorious though, with the sun on the rise and no clouds around. At 6.30am it's 25C, nice and cool. Be ready for a hot one though and get that sun lotion out. 

Welcome to August 2018; During the recent temple party at Wat Bo Phuttharam or the Bophud temple at the traffic lights near Fisherman's Village, the new, small statues had been rearranged and are now in front of the big sitting monk statue.

August is a typical high season month for Koh Samui, with all the European countries having holidays. It will be busy all around so let's hope for more sunshine!

There are no big events happening that I know of, this month. In a weeks time I will be back home, from the Philippines and come 26th August, I will run the Khanom half marathon. Khanom is directly opposite Koh Samui, on the mainland.

Enjoy your stay on Koh Samui this month and fon't hesitate to check out the trips I offe or the dinner option with the Thai Experience.

Please do 'like' my Koh Samui blog Facebook page and enjoy the beaches around the island or in front of your hotel or resort and get some well deserved rest and a break. If you're done resting or need something else to do, there's plenty of things on offer on and around Koh Samui, you can go snorkeling or diving or take a dive course. 

You can also enjoy some of the trips I recommend, like a half day gourmet lunch and snorkeling trip at the Southern part of Koh Samui or a photography trip where you get to see the most photo genetic spots on the island or go for a drinks tasting tour if you like a tipple or two. 

You may also opt for a very special dinner experience at The Thai Experience. Behind closed doors, reservation only and a very enjoyable and well worthwhile way of spending an evening on Samui. Authentic Thai food and a great atmosphere. Can highly recommend this experience. 

Contact me for more detailed information on any of the options mentioned.
