Early in the morning we left mainland and went to an island called Koh Chang, which would probably mean Island of Elephants and i think i'm in heaven now...
Although there's no elephants around where we live, but there's the ocean which we see from our room, there's nearly white sand on which we now can lie the whole day (since we don't have any tours) and there's really good food and - most important - peace. Our hotel is not on a street, so we don't hear anything and even if it would be near some road it would still be pretty peaceful - the island is not really big and not stuffed with tourists and people who want to sell something for them. It's a really blissful island, lots of wild nature, lots of crazy sounds in the evening that you barely could describe or assign to any kind of animals you know, the hotel is just lovely - really well made with really friendly service and reaaaally good food (i think i have already mentioned that...).
There's not so may people and i really enjoy it! If you see 4-5 people on the beach, it's already a lot. I immediately found a place i like to be at - it's simple swings almost completely in the water, so it's fun! It's gonna be just relaxing i guess and swimming in the ocean for now, which is good. I do need to relax. We read that this island is really pretty "fresh", since they even didn't have electricity 20 years ago. I do love seeing how green and pure it can be. Not exactly at the hotel though, but if you look further or just drive somewhere - it's amazing. I am gonna try to come back one day...
I wish i would be crazily rich, so i could have massages every day and drink fresh coconuts, but i'll be rich in my imagination and will try to gather as much of good memories as possible.
The whole place is not crowded and really cozy: they have lights in the trees, origami cranes, lots of plants and orchids, and even some dogs and cats which i love to pet and cannot just walk on if i see them.
I do wish though my mom could do more on her own and gave me some peace and time for myself. It's hard when she's always around and even if i get 30 minutes without her that's about the minimum i need in order to be able to start calming down. I did go back to work to Germany (mentally), because i had to do some planning and counting, so it's been somehow productive day in comparison to the rest. I think i could get used to working in a room with a huge window facing the sea and listening to the waves crashing on the shore and exotic animals.
I will try to grab my camera for tomorrow and the day after tomorrow and do some macro shots, maybe i'll find something nice to look at. But on the other hand - i would love to take those 3 days i have now and just use it for pure relaxation. Do nothing and gather some strength for coming back, because i'll need it. Definitely.
Waiting for tomorrow!
