For all the obvious urban delights found in Bangkok or Pattaya's buzzing streets, sometimes you simply got to hit the road for a refreshing change of scenery. At only a 3-hour drive from Bangkok or a little over 2 from Pattaya, Koh Samet with its palm tree-lined beaches, soft white sand and clear water offers you one of the easiest exotic island getaways from the city.
Here are a few pictures of my latest trip that I managed to squeeze in between celebrating Thailand's wet & wild crazy Songkran in Bangkok and Pattaya.

The Tree of Life, or Etz haChayim (עץ החיים) has upvoted you with divine emanations of G-ds creation itself ex nihilo. We reveal Light by transforming our Desire to Receive for Ourselves to a Desire to Receive for Others. I am part of the Curators Guild (Sephiroth), through which Ein Sof (The Infinite) reveals Itself!
Thank you for this ultimate blessing!
