good morning and welcome to my channel or welcome back if you're new here that's wrong
good morning and welcome back to my channel or welcome if you're new here
my name is josie this is my channel and this is our first sort of
full day that we're going to take exploring at the island of Koh samui
so we're going to go and we're going to take a bike and today we're just going to like drive
around the island we're going to explore there's a 50 kilometer track that's all around the island
that they've made and it's about an hour and a half 90 minutes long if you don't stop but we're
gonna be stopping along the way getting something to eat finding some cool cafes drinking some
coffee hopefully finding some waterfalls exploring the whole island basically so that's what today is
going to be make sure you like and subscribe and we're going to show you an adventure on Koh samui
let's go i think we've got to get the bike we have a bike they got a bike to
the villa and we're going to now get it and go to drive all right let's go
i don't know if you can hear me but we're um obviously in some more built up part of the town
after a short ride we're just stopping to get some uh fuel in it now and hopefully our coffee whoa
somewhere that was close my helmet we are this is so cool there's you're looking this way and
there's like a big mountain with like palm trees you look that way there's a beach oh i'm loving
it here so far and we're just literally driving we're trying to find a coffee shop first of all
but we're also trying to find a waterfall and just kind of stopping wherever we we can or when we
see things but this is so different obviously it's like northern thailand or anything like that and i
love it i love this the sun is in my eyes on my skin let's keep driving
so i'm pretty sure what we're driving through is lamai if you can hear me
um it's only early afternoon or not even it's about midday so i'm not sure whether everything
is closed just because it's not open yet or if it's closed because it's closed closed but
pretty dead feeling through here actually right now
wow so many things but everything was closed
they really need the tourists to come back here don't they yeah this must be like obviously
quite affected by tourism not having anyone here for so long
so one of my lovely subscribers joe has told us every single time i've mentioned
god's movie she's been like go to the jungle club but um we can't get up there on the bike
it's literally like a 30 like it's like this it's so steep and there's even like a road that says
you know 35 steep road ahead so we're gonna try and call the shuttle service um and see what it's
like but that is way too steep for us to get up so okay so we have a like jungle like jeep thing oh
yeah we're in like the jeep and it's going to take us up that big hill
okay so aside from the fact that when we got to the top and we saw like the reception counter
she was just like oh okay so that's uh 200 baht which is like eight dollars ten dollars for the
ride up and we're like no one told us that on the phone and we just waited 15 minutes
um so we didn't end up paying she just said okay go on through but now we might have to
pay that to go down so keep that in mind if they don't tell you that then it's probably still
being charged at the top but that's okay also the prices are super expensive but that
totally makes sense i'm not mad about that because of this amazing amazing view you're
on the top of this literal mountain and you can see i don't know one two three four like
five islands from here and it's all green you can see the ocean you can see the beaches you can see
everything like this is absolutely amazing if you can see out behind me there
it's crazy this is your actual view so i'm not mad about the prices of the food that's
obvious but we could have been told that there was a fee to come up when we called but that's okay
so we've ordered a couple of cocktails because we thought why not celebrate the occasion
um some saute skewers a pizza to share and something else so let's all make cocktails here
so
okay so all of that lunch with the meals and the drinks and everything we also got a coke and a
coffee was 1500 baht which is about 60 australian dollars or about 45 uh us dollars so we got that
and then we kind of just had a little bit of a drive around we went to go to the big buddha
which is one of the most famous things or things that you do do here as like a tourist so to say
but i didn't have my sarong and i'm in like my swimmers so we couldn't get in there hopefully
we can get back there another day before we leave um but we decided that today is gonna
be more of like a relaxed day from now on so i've noticed that there's a few things you can do in
gotsamui and one of them is adventures and fun and like high like energy high impact things and
the other one's kind of relaxing so i think we're going to make this one our relaxing day so we've
driven around the island we've done basically the whole entire loop and now we found this beach here
and it's beautiful there's basically no one around we just had some students come and sit there but
no one was here before it's a beautiful beach i think i'm gonna have a swim and just kind
of take it slow show you what a relaxing day in gotzemia can kind of be like if that's the vibe
that you want um and then tomorrow what we're gonna do in the next video is do the sort of
like adventurous high impact day so we'll do like a uh what do we call it uh waterfalls we'll do the
uh zipline we'll do other fun things like that so i think that is more your other option on being on
gotsamui doing more high impact type things but if you watch the next video subscribe and like
then we'll be going on zip lines and doing fun things like that as well so
oh also there was a pig um i was on my gopro when we were driving here i was filming on my
gopro and for some reason it wouldn't turn on and as soon as like that was happening
there was a pig on the side of the road like a pig pig like a like a big pig so i got a
quick little thing on my phone of it um i'll put it in now oh my god oh my god i'm scared
and he was actually walking up this road over here or something and he went into like that
house on the corner so hopefully that's his home otherwise someone's gonna get a big surprise
all right let's go swimming and let's enjoy this beautiful beach
searching for something that ain't lost have a god our lions cross
we're wasting time with stuff it doesn't really matter while wishing for something better
i try to fix things that weren't broken misunderstandings
he was fully submerged as well
that's a street dog he's just like jumped in the water in the ocean and then like we michael was
like look at that and this thing came up from the the water and it was this dog and now he's
staring at us well let's run if that was our dog our dog is terrified he feel like feel the water
and just like run the other way like literally run we have a little garden path at home that leads
from like the back area of our house to the back door and our dog will will make sure to go out of
his way to walk on the garden path if it's been raining just in case the grass is a little wet
just so his paws don't have to hit any any wet so there's obviously two types of dogs out there
he'd be very embarrassed if you saw this dog okay so we're back home now in our villa today sort of
didn't go to plan that much we were supposed to go to a couple of waterfalls out and then
we went we went past them by accident on the bike and then we're meant to go to the big buddha and
i didn't bring my sarong and it just it didn't go so much to plan the way i see it sometimes is that
i've paid a little bit extra money for this villa so i want to spend a little bit more time in it
just to get my money's worth if that makes sense but tomorrow we have decided to do all of the fun
activities use zip lining if it's open we had a look today and it wasn't open so hopefully
that's open because i'd like to do that going around the entire island i think is a must do
i think you should get a bike for the day and go around the whole island it does not take long
we stopped along the way for a few hours at each stop obviously but i do think it's good and it's
good way to just see the entire island see where things are see the different kinds of towns and
kind of go from there and i have a i have a helmet mark again on my head yeah this is just telling
me that if all the standard helmets are built for standard heads then you don't have a standard head
we had a little swim in the pool we had a little relax time we honestly are wrecked after today
so we did go out to dinner we went to a new place down the road it was a little bit further forest
and we had some dinner there i found the cutest street dog he was so cute he was so lovely and he
just like followed me all the time and as soon as i stopped patting him he'd look up at me and give
me like the biggest puppy dog guys until his little butt yeah and he would like stare at me
until like i started patting him again so michael got uh padre powell but he got one with crispy
pork pork belly pork belly crispy pork belly pancake power and he said it was the best best pad
profile you've had it's the best poke i've had so far in thailand and if i'm being completely honest
it might almost be the best meal i've had in thailand i had um prawn spaghetti and on the menu
it came with chili and i was like can i please have it without chili and she was so confused
she was like no chili chili garnish and then i was like no i was like my side prick car i was
like my owl i was like i don't want chili and she was so cute and then they brought out like pepper
and salt because like i think that was like afraid that it wouldn't have any any flavor
but i like it like that and it was actually honestly really nice spaghetti too right so
really good coffee there as well so that's really really much josie
yeah they saw she's like i saw you eating something on youtube i was like yeah that's me
but tomorrow we have such a big day yeah um we're gonna try and do some more adventurous things like
um there's like a big uh rock here what's it called overlap or something overlap rock stone
we've extended our stay here one night because we loved it so much we loved it that's important to
say i think yeah we're staying here another night in the villas because it's so nice and we get our
bike for another day that way yeah we've extended that also so but make sure you do like and
