Taxi, plane, bus, ferry, taxi…and finally, paradise. Koh Pha Ngan — island bliss in the Gulf of Thailand in the southeast of the country. The sight of so many “bro” backpackers swarming the island signifies the infamous Full Moon Party approaching, just two days away. All the other backpackers here are sure to be bigger partiers and bigger fans of electronic music than us, but I think we will still find a way to enjoy ourselves.

I did take a cooking class in Koh Pha Ngan.
Speaking of enjoying myself, here I will take a vacation from writing. Sunbathing and ocean swims don’t provide the most interesting fodder for blogs anyway. As I type up my handwritten journal to share with you, I’ll enjoy digesting and reminiscing on my last four weeks of Southeast Asian thrills.
I feel honored that you would spend even a moment of your day reading my blog. Thank you. And I wish you the very best in your summer and your future travels!
