Finding Koh Samui

In January 2018, I envisioned myself staying in a beach bungalow on Koh Samui’s Mae Nam Beach and I actually looked into making a solo trip happen.

In the years since, I’ve lost interest in party islands and became less convinced that I’d find what I was looking for on Koh Samui.
