So in April we were back again on Koh Tao. This time with my mum and her partner. But also with Anna and Ove, their friends from Piteå. As from now are our friends too of course.
These two weeks were just cozy and fun on the terrace. Lots of sun and swimming. We celebrated my mum who had jubileum-birthday in may. But we also celebrated SongKran – Thai New Year!! This was our first Songkran and it was lots of fun! 😀 Lots of water, we were soaked from tip to toe and we were only out for little more than an hour?! Hehe. We really hop that we will be doing this a lot more, because it was great fun!

There was a lot of beers and lots of tasty food as usually. But we also did an snorkel-trip to Mango Bay and Koh Nangyuan and some sightseeing around the island! Maybe this trip around this time can be an returning happening, Gunnel, Arne, Ove and Anna?! 😉

Alright, then we have made lots of blog-posts with lots of photos from our last trips to our paradis! 😀

This is only the start, it will be lots more. These photos are the last from our christmas/new year trip 2015/2016. Maybe it comes little bit more, but the focus will be for now on the trip we did in April, earlier this year. Big hugs from us /Linda & Tomas

Ok, here it comes some more photos from our paradise. These are from January when we had some really good snorkling- and diving days with both old and new friends on Koh Tao. We had one snorkel-day on the small yacht S/Y Southwind and one diving-day with Sandra & William. And for last a snorkel-day with our thai-friends and some co-workers to Linda!

We miss the Ocean, our diving-gears, masks and snorkels….

Soon on Koh Tao again! <3

Hello you all!
Hmm now it is a very loooong time since we wrote anything again. So sorry.
But it is not only laciness. We have had much problem with the site and we have tried to fix it. Some of the problems comes from plug-ins that we use and that has caused that the english site has been down. But it has also been some small fault here and there. And when ’time’ hasn’t been there at all, when we both working full-time so have the webpage been on the shelf for a while, unfortunately. But now we hope it’s working as normal again with some updates and some purchase of plug-ins and that the site can run as normal again!

And now we only have 5 days left until we are in our lovely paradis again! On Sunday it is depature. And this time we will be on Koh Tao 5 weeks. No other trips are planed, only relaxing! It will be so nice and we are really worth it!

Enjoy some photos on Frangipani Villa from our trip there in July. It’s not so strange that we longing for it every hour and every minute cause our luxury villa is truly amazing! <3

Hugs from us!

Hello to everyone that follow us here on our website.
We are so sorry that we haven’t give you updates lately..
We have been working a lot since we came back from the Azores plus that we have been working on the photos that we took.
It creates lots of job when we always shoot about 3-4000 photos when we going on a trip. This time we had two cameras and one GoPro with us. So its lots of photos to choose from at first. You want to choose all the best photos and then we need to get some of the photos more exposure, contrast and a piff-up 😉 to be a great photo to show you off. But now is all done and you find the results further down.

The Azores and Santa Maria was totally amazing. An island in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean with green hills, high mountains and an barren coastline. Lovely people and cozy small town atmosphere. A bit like the Galapagos but still not. And the flight trip were not longer than the flights up to Norrbotten, this means that we actually liked the island so much that we have started to look for some house or small landplot to buy… you’ll never know whats happens. Hehe 😉
We spent lots of looong hours in the dinghy during the 6 divedays. Always with our wetsuit on and with our mask, snorkel and fins ready to always jump in the water if an Whale or an Whaleshark should pass by. But all this hours in the dinghy was compensated with an incredible calm and quiet ocean, completely windless and crazy blue. Didn’t thought that that the Atlantic Ocean could be so calm and quiet, thought that it always were movement in such a big sea. Amazing!
We got lots of close encounters with Mobula Rays (our thoughts still lives in euphoria), barracudas, small shrimps in thousands that the whole cavefloor where moving, big groupers, stingrays and dolphins and Hammerheads from the surface. What memories we created with eachother and both old and new friends. An unforgettable diving trip that we hope we can do again! Great thanks to the dive center Paralelo 37, our diveguide Paolo, the travel agency PH Travel , Magnus Lundgren – Exposure Expeditions, our friends Marlene and Anne and our new newfound friends Inger, Iona and Fredrik and of course all of you others that was on the trip. Non mentioned, non forgotten! 😀 Many thanks! See you soon again, maybe on a small divetrip to Egypt and the Red Sea…
