Are you ready to take a trip to Racha Island? If so, then let's go! My friends and I met up at AoChalong Pier to board the speed boat forRacha Island and 45 minutes later, we arrived at the island's Ao Tue Pier.

The beautiful, sunny weather is beckoning us to go out and enjoy challenging outdoor activitiesagain. We agreed on trying something new and it had to be a total adrenaline rush.

On this bright morning, we set off for ThapLamu Pier of Phang-Ngato join a very noble cause. This cause was to free the turtles back into the sea whilst enjoying the beautiful, sheltered sceneries of their home on Huyong Island.
Another outstanding gem in the vast turquoise ocean is 'The Racha', a beautiful resort on Racha Island's powdery Batok Beach. This quiet island, ideal for spending a restful holiday, is located 12 miles south of Phuket and takes about 35-40 minutes to reach by speed boat.


Looking out from Laem Promthep, you will see a small island with large Buddha statue as landmark. Apart from that, there is also the 5th footprint of the Lord Buddha, a symbol worshipped by the people of Koh Kaew Pisadan.

Punywawi Santiworaphong or "Nong Pond" is living in Ratchaburi. She flies to Phuket at least once or twice a year. The activity she never missed whilst being here is eating Phuket Local Food.
Today, my dear friend from the city called to remind me of a party we're attending in a couple of days. Before hanging up, she asked me to bring a souvenir which can be anything that I considered a top product of Phuket.

Phuketians have been drinking coffee for years and their favorite is a dark, strong blend called "Ko Pi". As time passes, however, new trends for more modern coffee shops serving choices of delectable, light food have emerged.
As longs as Chaingmai has its Sai Ua, Phuket will never be without its Taosor. The delicious taste of these yummy treats has taken its reputation beyond Phuket, so much so that anyone visiting this island would always be asked to bring back these snacks.
Thinking about the rustic wooden bridge partly hidden among lush, green fauna growing wild, I was suddenly overwhelmed with a sense of happiness.
