Now I'm currently in Koh Samui behind you you can see Bophut which is
the beach resort area where we are
at the moment There's a bit of a storm coming over there
but generally the weather is beautiful year-round
although we are in the low season now so you will get those storms coming in
one of the reasons we chose fishermen's village was because its a
the resort here on Koh Samui, it's one of the very family-friendly resort less
night life and bar life a lot more restaurants
the island of Koh Samui itself has its own airport we came down on the
sleeper train from Bangkok which was a lot of fun so we had an overnight and
the a little ferry crossing on to the island itself but there are many
different ways to get over to koh Samui, costs here are
fairly cheap actually for Thailand not expensive t all
one thing I will say with this particular resort there's not the constant
push to sell things on the beach there are on some of the other resorts it's a
really family-friendly environment to be in
I would highly recommend it for me it's a place I'd like to be
if you want that night life and the bar scene then probably you want to go
up to one of the other resorts here on Koh Samui now it's getting to late
afternoon
here and they're starting to set up on walking street and Michele and I
are particularly looking to spending an evening down walking street we found some great
eateries some
street food last week Just give these Thai rice puddings a try they
are beautiful and hot just come straight out of the cooker - delicious
and we're going to go back and revisit this week and
just enjoy some up the street food which to me
is a great part of being here in Thailand and being on Koh Samui
looks like tonight we're going to get a storm as well these storms come in in the
evening time
around about five six o'clock and they can be pretty heavy
and very refreshing because the weather here is super super hot at the moment
and very humid
but we've got the sea behind us if we need tot we can go for a dip and a cool off
anytime you like most of the tourists that come here do tend to hire
mopeds a little motorbike to go around they can be
a little bit dangerous so you take your life in your hands if you take
a motorbike out I wouldn't necessary advise it we have done
but you want to be confident on a bike if you're going to take a bike out
and go touring the Roads away from the resort itself are
quite dangerous and a little bit hectic also whilst I've been here
on the island I've been sharing recipes with locals on the island
I've got some wonderful ideas ready for Steve's kitchen when we get
settled and we're able to share those with you or we've got a nice kitchen
set up I think when we get North of Thailand we're going to hopefully set up
with a lovely kitchen I want to share those recipes with you
now please share the love give the thumbs up if you've enjoyed the video so far
I'll see you next time be good. Now I'm going to leave this
camera running for a moment also because behind me I see a storm coming in
you can actually see the rain so whether we are going to be be hit by that tonight or whether
it's going to
ruin or make walking street a little bit of fun wait and see
Now as always on Steve's Kitchen
I'll leave some links up here one probably to the series in
South East Asia that we're running at the moment and some of my
other recipes as well love to hear your comments down below if you're enjoying
the way we're
doing this new series certainly it's been a learning experience for us
be good see you next time take care
