@endo Every picture has this “A life in peace and freedom” vibe!
Enjoy and keep us updated, what the smaller island provides for you.

Koh Chang Ranong (or Koh Chang Noi, the small Koh Chang in the Andaman Sea, not the one off the coast of Cambodia) – I'd say it's still like island life in Thailand in the 90s, just as I remember Koh Tao back then. While neighboring Koh Phayam might be like a 90s Koh Phangan, only without Haad Rin, but with a multitude of cafes, restaurants, and shops, here there are practically no shops, just a few restaurants, and also no cars. Along the beautiful, west-facing beaches, you'll find all kinds of bungalows and huts, generally quite basic, without air conditioning, and often without electricity. But you stay with friendly families who offer wonderful food, lots of fresh fish and seafood, and – thankfully – all kinds of alcohol. Plus, smoking weed is welcome everywhere. Simply paradise, if you can stand it. We're enjoying our last day now. Tomorrow we head home.

You sure? Sounds like you found paradise

[endo]

Yes. I can't stand to see any more damn sunsets.

[Giles]

Sounds like my sort of place. You allowed to use German and Englsih words when you play scrabble?

Beautiful @endo

And greets from Hachioji.

I’m very happy I took the trip here. Not only because of the obvious IH, but because I truly had the feeling of „being in Japan“, seeing only locals on the bus and in the restaurant I went to.

This was different in Osaka, Kyoto, Tokyo and even Kii-Katsuura, which is a bit more remote, but still has some tourism.

Katsudon and Soba, just as recommended by Toranori, one of the newest store employees.

Such a shame. @Alex and I were due there the whole of this week. But were flying via Doha, so that got cancelled. Would have been a blast to catch up....

@endo amazing trip

[Alex]

@weftyarn this is an appropiate Japanese serving of carbs

[weftyarn]

@Giles Oh man, that for sure would have been a pleasant surprise! If only the humans in power would come to their senses.

@Alex The real question now is how the heck I can find carbs in this form once I’m out of Japan.

Oh, and there is an implication in that statement that they some to start with

I get them shipped in boxes of jeans to the London office

@weftyarn greetings back. Little envious, I absolutely have to go to Japan sometime.

@Giles we can try. Have played it with Del (you met him in Dec) a few times. He had to do german words and I english. Was fun but you need to be quite pissed.

@Denimhead-0 totally recommended if you‘re up to tropical beach life.
