Island is called "koh" in Thai. As I'm doing a lot of research on the web right now, I'm doing a lot of searches starting with kohI ended up on Koh Rin. I am an island! Corinne, Koh Rin... There are only a few letters to change!

Well, I'm a bit wary, since I don't know the meaning of "rin" in Thai. Let's hope the connotation is not too negative... Koh Rin looks like this:

The island in question is not at all located in the area I am currently interested in (Andaman Sea), but off Pattaya, in the northern Gulf of Thailand.

And Koh Rin is a diving spot! It's a good thing for a girl who likes to make bubbles under water, isn't it?

I would be surprised if I went to Pattaya one day, but you never know? Have any of you already dived in Koh Rin?

  5. Hello Corinne, You're great.
    I discovered your site by accident, it's a pleasure.
    I loved the story of the post office under the sea.
    I am an island, but I am rather on the side GWADA for GUADELOUPE.
    I love my island, but I don't mind traveling to new destinations, even though it can cost more to go to Trinidad or Barbados than to go to Paris 8,000 km away (during promotional periods).
    That's the price you pay for being in the sun 24 hours a day.
    See you soon, I'll be listening and watching.
    v.
