It's literally a ghost town in Lanta. The island has no tourists and it rains every single day as its the beginning of monsoon season.
You eat, drink and stay where the locals do.
Finally I escaped the backpacker route.
I found the most basic bamboo bungalow with a bug net where the only civilization seems to exist.
I walk to the beach and all the bars/stores ect. are all abandoned.
theres nothing like sitting on a chair from cover from the rain in a closed beachfront bar to watch the waves with breakfast you had to bike around for miles to find.
Surfing would be perfect if I could finish my mission of finding a board...
riding a motorcycle in continuous downpour isn't the most fun thing ever either...It's still pretty awesome though.
Love from Koh Lanta.
