The saddest part of our trip to the island of Koh Samui was leaving, five nights was a mere teaser and we could have spent more time on the island. Our cheap flight was at a ridiculous hour but a bonus was seeing the sun rise over the Gulf of Thailand from our villa terrace.
The staff packed us a takeaway breakfast and we said goodbye.
Goodbye Sandalwood Villas!
Our holiday villa was divine, not only did it have an outdoor spa it also have an amazing view across the ocean. Koh Samui was one of my most treasured holidays in Asia, it is a place that I will go back to. Every afternoon after a morning of riding around on the scooter we would come back to the villa, crack open the Moet Champagne , order some Pad Thai and relax!

Bike riding late one night, we ride past this uninhabited building high on the Mt Claremont hill, it overlooks a gully towards Perth. It was scary and we were chased away by a security guard even though we were on the right side of the fence! Perth go figure.

As the sunsets in Amsterdam and the evening surfaces, it’s always exciting! First there is the leisure bicycle ride along the canals in search for a place for dinner (and dinner can be as late as you want!), then wandering through the red light district and finishing the night at a coffee shop that also happens to serve sundaes. Oh and maybe a late sex show from the touristy pink elephant venue to add to all the excitement of the evening. Not one single drink in the evenings, i wake up fresh faced for our day trip adventures on a scooter and bicycle.

The Island of Koh Samui is mountainous and offers stunning panoramic views across the Gulf of Thailand. On calm clear days the ocean is a sparkling blue, exactly how you would expect a tropical island to be.
We rode around the island twice during our stay, DDalways looking for an adventure took me up a scary steep road and this is what we discovered! Views as far as the eye can see.

On the island of Koh Samui, particularly in Lamai and Chaweng there are a number of ‘Aussie’ bars and pubs, it is the last place i would want to be when travelling but i am sure there are some Australian travellers out there looking for some sense of familiarity in a foreign country.

Flipside in North Fremantle has a very laid back feel to it, it is located on the Queen Victoria strip in between a few antique stores, Mojo’s Bar and cafe and Vanya’s cafe. Across the road is a small park, community garden (with about 100 Butterfly’s flying around) and Harvest restaurant.
We ordered a mini flip ($7.00) and a side of chips, the perfect snack!

If you are staying in the Perth there are plenty of ways to keep it cheap and save your dollar!
Perth is fast becoming an expensive city to live and travel through.
Accommodation is constantly booked up and would you believe it is cheaper to stay in hotels on the weekend than the weekdays! It is in my opinion that it is not worth spending big dollars here. The majority of the time, spending $$$ at restaurants or bars you rarely receive that service that you were looking for. Some of the best places in Perth with service and ambiance are the cheapest places to go, it is just a matter of finding them! Most of my blog features the budget things to do in Perth as I too live on a budget in Perth. I much prefer to relax and be casual!

Before i begin with my Tale of Bastille, i have to make mention that unfortunately i have no photos of Bastille, not one single photo! So instead i have copied photos from Flickr and fully referenced where appropriate.
After arriving at Paris Gare Lyon we decided instead of catching a taxi to walk from the train station to our apartment. To our favour it turned out to be an easy 20 minute slow paced walk, it was very easy to get to Bastille, we just followed the rather straight Rue de Lyon. (more…)
