Koh Tao, Thailand
I was here for four days over Aug/Sept 2017 and am now posting my notes in October 2017.
About
- Koh Tao is famous as a SCUBA diving island in the Gulf of Thailand.
- Koh Tao means “Turtle Island” because it was formerly inhabited by turtles.
How to get there from Bangkok: I flew into Koh Samui. This is the quickest and maybe most expensive way. I bought a boat ticket at the airport. (Lomprayah boat company, there are 2 or 3 fast ones) Free airport shuttle to the pier, and then 2 hours later I was at Koh Tao. The boat stopped at Koh Phagnan en route.

Tea House in Hong Kong Airport
This is what jet-lagged traveler dreams are made of: Cathay Pacific’s newest and largest airport lounge in Hong Kong, The Pier, has a dedicated tea house.

This teahouse is only open to Business and First Class airline passengers, but it begs the question: can I live here?
