Favorite thing: amazing Khao Lak is a website designed for free, to help the sustainable development of the Andaman Coast, simply that. Its the real Thailand
Two hours north of here is the most incredible lake, Chew Lan Dam, 158 km in length, where you can stay in a floating hotel. The bamboo hut rooms are accessible by a walkway. At night you can pull yourself across, on a raft, to a floating bar. Sit in silence and look at a sky that has more stars than you can believe. In the morning you can open your door, step onto the walkway and dive into the lake.
If you go canoeing, you secure your door with a piece of string - eat your heart out Pattaya
Fondest memory: Its the people.

Fondest memory: The aftermath of the tsunami in Khao Lak, Thailand. The photos are taken 3 months after the big tsunami. Khao Lak was deserted almost a year after the tsunami, and became almost a religious spot because of the exceptionally force and destruction of the waves. Khao Lak is now rebuilt and ready for tourism.
