Sand between your toes and clear waters

If you are searching for that perfect holiday destination then I strongly suggest that you make a trip to Krabi, Thailand, all too often in the shade of the better-known Phuket. The sand on the beach sinks in between your toes and the crystal-clear waters are exquisite, as well as the many tropical birds and fish.

My family has traveled there at least five times in the past couple of years. The place has grown on us and every time we go we love it even more. You can go scuba diving, snorkeling or just play on the beach.

A lot of the time the resorts have surf boards and sailboats. If you really want to go out and about to explore more, there are places to ride elephants and lots of temples to see. You could develop a new hobby and take up some photography or try a cooking class, there are many new flavors that you can learn to cook with, like lemon grass, kaffir lime leaves and the Thai basil or maybe even you develop a new love for something that you wouldn’t really go for.

You can try the different types of food, like the Massaman curry in the shade of Pad Thai, and the fresh exotic beverages, like the Nom Yen but you can still get a taste of home with a drink in the evening breathing in that fresh ocean air. Imagine waking up in a beautiful sunny day, with the sound of the ocean washing up onto the beach and the birds chirping. It does not take long to get there, only four hours on the plane and you are at the perfect destination.

No more stressful wake up calls or alarms just the beautiful sound of nature and relaxation just outside your window.

So, pack your bags and enjoy your winter holiday in relaxation and tranquility.
