Koh Phangan and Koh Tao

 June passed, July came and we were still in Khanom... as Chiang Mai had strict qurantaine laws for returnees we rather decided to stay South and finish the research of the Samui archipelago.. so off we went to Koh Phangan and Koh Tao.. 

The Raja Ferry from Donsak to Koh Phangan was quite empty...

We found a lovely bungalow at Angkhana Bungalows.. highly recommended Flo and Matt are wonderful hosts...

Pastis for sundowner---

Exploring the island that was surprisingly lively with willingly stranded tourists and long-term residents... even parties were back on...
