So as I wrote earlier, the ultimate destination for this trip was Koh Samui. Having only been to Bangkok, I wasn't sure what to expect – on the one hand, it's a tropical paradise destination, and on the other, the beaches around Koh Samui didn't strike me as being particularly amazing as far as swimming goes. I am not one to ever miss a mistake fare opportunity, though, and between the Bangkok ticket being incorrectly priced at Hong Kong prices and the villa being given to me for free, I wasn't about to complain!
