After Bangkok, I went to Koh Lanta by bus and minivan (about 18 hours).
You know, the island where took place the first Koh Lanta TV show.
It's beautiful, quiet and very touristic but it's not yet the paradise. 


I should pass my PADI Open Water Diver in 3 days (scuba diving certification).
But after two days I quit because of my sinuses.
I was really frustrated. The fish and the seabed looked wonderful. 

Otherwise, I rested.

I also met a charming french girl (Solange) who was travelling for 5 months.
We spent a few evenings together.
We admired the sunset and had dinner on the beach.
Unfortunately for me, it was the end of her trip and she went back to France :(

Then I went to Koh Lipe (by minivan and speed boat).

A small island close to the Malaysian border (just above Langkawi island).
And there, it looks a lot more to paradise (emerald blue sea and white sand beach).

In order to forget the frustration of my PADI Open Water Diver, I booked a snorkeling day around Koh Lipe.
It was amazing. The fish and the seabed are really beautiful.
During this day, I met a Italian couple (Alex and Deborah) and another one from Malaysia.
