After the excitement of holidaying in Thailand, our group vowed to get together again and enjoy another getaway-this time somewhere a little closer to home.  After a few months of planning we settled on a weekend away on the “South Coast” of NSW.  This post is a little late in the making…I mean this happened in January!!!  Nonetheless, I’m here to indulge you with a few words

In this post I wanted to highlight the food  and drinks we enjoyed whilst we stayed at The Four Seasons.  A sort of general “overview”.  It really helps when you travel with like minded people as everyone was willing to try bits of everything!  For research of course!   One of my friends felt hungry before dinner

One of the activities we set out to do whilst in Koh Samui was to hire a boat and explore the local islands.  We were all keen to leave the comfort of our resort chairs and go snorkeling, swimming and seek a bit of adventure on the high seas!    After much research we decided to hire the services of an operator, a few metres up from where we were staying.  [...]

I’m back from paradise folks!  I’m recharged, relaxed and ready for the rat race again!  Admittedly, I was only away for about 9 days but it felt longer than that.  Koh Samui was a wonderful experience and I’m keen to go back again sometime in the near future.  I’ve been to Thailand many times but I had never ventured onto any of the islands before.  I’ve been a traveler most [...]
