PARADISE COMES TO LIFE IN YOUR HEAD, NOT THE PLACE YOU LIVE.
A sneak peak of our adventurous life in Sapli near Chumphon, Thailand. Here we spend the last 2,5 years in abundance of beauty, tranquility and in peace with the local community surrounded by nature and empty beaches.
In the first video, I invite you to our home on the beach and its environment .
As you can see this layback fishing village comes to life on Sundays when it hosts a huge market where you can find about everything you need for your daily life

This picture radiates the peace of this lovely layback fishing village. This tidal river embraces the village before it runs out to a nearby mangrove forest where wildlife roam freely which you can see floating on a kayak in silence.
The other day we took the dinghy out with some friends, have a look.

We were very lucky to find a newly build house on the beach with a big garden and a terras with breath taking views. Waking up with the sound of the waves really does something to a person , it gives you a grateful feeling every start of a new day.

My wife Yuris @yurodidit and me had a great time there but as soon we finished building our Catamaran , we sailed away towards Cambodia where we live now. I will tell you the stories about the boat building and the adventure of our trip as soon as my video is ready, you all going to love it!

During a recent trip to Taiwan, I wanted to go visit Thailand, but because of scheduling, I never made the trip. I heard a lot of good things about Thailand, but don't know much about the bad. Your photos are gorgeous and show just how beautiful some of the areas actually are. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you @darrenrobinson, I would not hesitate to visit Thailand if I was you, it's really an amasing country with a lot of deversities. The reason that we left was purely because of the constantly changing and very stricked immigration laws and expensive visa costs.
Also , to set up a business as foreigner, you need a huge douwnpayment and invest a big amount of time in getting the right, legal paperwork done.
However if you want to travel as a tourist for some months or retired and just want to enjoy life, it is really the place to be.
Cheers
Thank you for this post! Such a beautiful getaway! Incredible scenery! @frankhappa
Thanks @jbcoin, yeah what an amazing place that is, to be honest, I'm missing it already but the Thai immigration laws got a lot strickter and was impossible for us to stay so we sailed away towards Cambodia where we now are starting a new life and business...
Good Luck to you in Cambodia!
Thank you @jbcoin,..I can see now already we're going to need it...
Thanks, we're going to need it, it's a different world out here. Even though it's bordering Thailand, we already found out the huge differences. You need a lot of patients to get things done around here.
The skies and seas are calling to me! What a beautiful place to visit!
Yes @lucy.lemon it sure is worth a visit. Go for it and let me know if you need some insiders advice.. always handy.
