Interested in a Reading?
by balisunshine
A reading is an intimate session in which you
get in touch with a higher authority of yourself.
Through channeling your spiritual companions
who are always around,
you get more information than is accessible for you
in your day consciousness.
Whether you want to find out the meanings and
causes of your problems,
to ask questions that can help your personal development
or you would like your chakras read,
a reading may provide clarity and
insight into yourself.

Gallery in Samui
by sacrebleu about Baan Soi Gemstones
This is an amazing gallery cum restaurant. I have already written about the restaurant side and here goes how mesmerising I was when I first found this shop. I was like a child in a candy shop and couldn't sit still while I was waiting for my food to come.
It is a big shop sells Thai handicrafts which seemed to be cheaper than the shops in Chaweng but what I want to recommend is their hand-made jewellery. All items are made with different stones sourced from around the world since the owner travels a lot too. Mai, who is the cousin of the shop owner, has been making jewellery for 3 years. They sell Thai antique silver (rare to find in Thailand) by gram for 30B and also crystals etc. Mai can custom-made ear-rings/bracelet/necklace to your satisfaction. She has made me 2 pairs of lovely ear-rings with star fish and dragon fly respectively. I have also asked her to convert the red coral key-ring into a big ear-ring for me. She is literally so talented and has an artistic personality too lol. So please don't bargain with her. Red Coral Key-ring. Silver ear-rings. A Cock Coat Hanger. Vary.
Don't Delay, Rent a Scooter Today.
by acaciawould
The absolute best part of my trip to Samui was riding a scooter around the island. While I had never riden one before, and come from a country in which we drive on the right side of the street, not the left as in Thailand, I thought it was easy to get used to and turned out to be the cheapest way to get around. You can rent them almost anywhere and this seems to be the preferred method of transportation for locals, as well. However, the traffic can be heavy in Chaweng so you should be Very careful. Although you won't be traveling too fast in town, the locals do and if you're not careful, you may get off balance as the traffics stops suddenly. Also, be careful where you park. The parking may not be in the same place it was the day before. Look for other bikes parked in the same area and park off the street whenever possible.
The Chicken Lady
by Pat&ZoAnn
We actually saw a photograph of this woman on a web page before we left for Thailand, but weren't expecting to find her. She carried around two enamel pans that she used as a barbeque, and cooked chicken kebabs, as well as a few other items, right there on the beach. She also sold donuts, and a few sweets.
