So this Camping tour we went out to one of the Islands just outside Khanom and had an AMAZING time there!! So chilled and nice Island, Koh Wang Nok<3
Enjoyed myself a lot only sad that on the way back from the Island to Khanom in the Longtail boat a FREAKIN CENTIPEDE bit me! What are the odds on that? In a boat? :/ So the last days I had some severe pain, fever and a swollen face.. But today Im feeling much better! :)
Will post some more Camping pics in the near future.
Good Night..
Tomorrow it’s finally time for a Camping trip out on the Islands outside Khanom! So EXCITED as this has been on my wishlist for 2 years! Yaaaay!! :)
We are a group of eight people including my brother who just got here. We will go over the Weekend so pictures will be up next week. Good Times to come….:)
Had some really GOOD days & nights @ JungleRoots Bar in Kwang Pao..
Love this place, P’Ti the owner is such a great guy! ;)
When we went to Lanta we stayed @ ”The Hut” that is located next to the Klong Nin Beach. Just a cozy and perfect place to stay with a oldstyle Bamboo hut feeling. The owners and the staff are so friendly so it felt good to be back there for our third visit in 2 years.
Can’t wait to go back there again.. ;)
This makes me very upset. How can tourists ”not know” anymore? Show this smart, beautiful & special animals some RESPECT!

From another great evening at Khanom’s beautiful Mountain, Dat Fa.
Two nights ago we went to Kwang Pao Beach (North Khanom) to eat @ one of the Seafood Restaurants there while watching the Sunset.
It was such a nice and relaxing evening, pure magic! I live for those moments and trying to have one magic moment every day, why not!? ;)
Har varit busy busy senaste veckan då jag och några vänner har organiserat och planerat vår egen lilla ”Khanom Crafts & Clothing Fair” =Marknad! ;)
På Marknaden sålde vi Mans handgjorda Väskor, Crochet hattar, Kakor, Teknik Prylar, Böcker, Nya & second hand kläder, Lyktor/Lampor, Kuddfodral, Smycken, Hoola Hoops och Prydnadsgrejer m.m.
Själv sålde jag min första handgjorda Väska, har gjort flera men aldrig sålt någon innan så det kändes roligt! :)
En mycket trevlig dag med besökare från bla. Tyskland, Canada, Usa, Finland, Norge, England, Frankrike, Sydafrika, Filippinerna, Italien, Ryssland, Holland och såklart Thailand & Sverige.
Det far vi snart göra om igen!
Khanom is always beautiful daytime as night time<3

Här kommer en liten Morgon Hälsning från oss här i Khanom..
Denna vackra Lotusen växer i vår lilla fiskdamm där den har sällskap av ca. 50 guppies.
Man plockar Ka Prao/Basilika till dagens matlagning.
Imorse var det min tur att laga mat så självklart Phad Ka Prao som jag aldrig tröttnar på! ;)
Nydushad Cissi torkar i solen.
Njuter av mitt liv här och nu, right now från hängmattan med Cissi men ska dricka en kokosnöt strax här och promenera bort till gymmet för en timmes träning innan det bär av till ThaNoi Waterfall för ett svalkande dopp i djungeln. Man han är busy med att göra väskor till en marknad som jag anordnar till nästa helg, mer om det sen.. Ha en härlig dag mina fina läsare!
Had a nice Morning walk today together with Cissi and a bunch of random beach dogs. Happy to see that someone came up with a great idea how to use all the styrofoam that the ocean brings up on the Beach. :)
Always nice and relaxing to hangout @ Thong Yee Beach. 💛
Have been very busy the last week with another Camping trip, friends/guests ,roadtrips and working out at the gym etc. But got a lot of pictures to share so will try to do that this week.
Here is some pics from my new favorite restaurant in Khanom the ”Krua Khlong Kura” its so pretty by the River and the food is great!
A must try when in Khanom, try the Seaweed Kaviar. ;)
So after talking and trying to organize it for such a long time we finally did it!
We went CAMPING on a quiet Jungle Beach here in Khanom and it was AMAZING!!
Of course I forgot my camera:( but was lucky enough to use my friends phone fore some quick captures.
I learned that its just to go do it! And not wait around for those people who says they want to go but never does. This time I just said to Man in the Morning Lets go Camping tonight! And he said Yes, so we did! :)
We saw a beautiful Sunset, had the Beach all to ourselves not a living soul there, the Stars were so bright, it was plankton(mareld) which always brings a magical feeling, the Sunrise was amazing with a big red Sun. We had coffee in the Morning and Cissi was the perfect camping guard dog, my morning dip was one of my best ever, what a feeling while watching the Sun rise!
So it was kind of a perfect experiance and Im ready for another night under the Stars..
Always a good feeling to come back to Khanom 💛
Some pictures of places, beaches and things I liked in Koh Phayam..
Loved that there was Chabaa flowers / Hibiskus growing wild everywhere.
And also Cashewnut trees plantages across the whole Island. They tasted so good when they were fresh from the tree.
On Phayam there is NO cars and some places/hotels have no roads so you drive on the Beach to get there. :)
Such a beautiful oldstyle Paradise Island with a relaxing atmosphere and rich nature. Im in love <3
Here is a little amateur movie clip from our beautiful weekend in Koh Phayam..
Can’t wait to return to Koh Phayam but of course is nice to be back at Khanom:)
More pictures coming soon..
A breezy hello from Mats Beach Sala, where we always have a good time! ;)
