Greetings from Koh Samui!

First two weeks have been wonderful. The flight took 11 hours and everything went well. First we flew from Finland to Bangkok, and from Bangkok still to Koh Samui. I think time ran out fast on the plane, watching the movie named The Great Gatsby and reading my favourite book The Hobbit.

 

Koh Samui is a safe, little and beautiful place. We live in a suburb named Temple Gardens. There live five families with us. They’re from England, Russia, America and France. We have shared swimming pool and washing machine. And there are five dogs too!

Our house is very nice. On the first floor is a living room, a WC and a kitchen. Two bedrooms (and two toilets) are upstairs. We have a small backyard and terrace too.

From Temple Gardens is ten-minute walk to Fisherman’s Village. There you find a lot of shops, restaurants, pharmacies and the Bo phut Beach. On fridays there's a weekly market, and then Fisherman’s Village is full of music, people and booths on the streets.

I think Fisherman's Village is the best place in Koh Samui. There's a lovely people, delicious food and really good massages. And it's a quiet and peaceful place.

Weather have been perfect! It’s almost 30-40 degrees every day. Now it should be a rainy season, but sun is shining most of the time. On sunny days we’ve usually taken the sun on the beach or yard, rainy days we’ve gone to shopping malls. We have shopped quite a lot, because dad’s not here… 

Today we're going to the Tennis club and big supermarket called Tesco Lotus. So far so good!!
