I was asked here to tell you how I now live in Thailand and what i do If you answer shortly, it seems to be telling nothing special – continuous life, added only swimming in the sea 
And in general, something is somehow easier compared to Moscow. Although I I left there at the beginning of autumn, and even from my mother, who in every possible way told me helped, therefore, I compare not with the dank and gray Moscow, but with summer, which is not the same thing. From the winter would come, the contrast was would be more noticeable. Well, I will try to describe a little everyday life on Samui. The post is not informational, but about life-

Thought it would be easier
Not to say that I originally counted on Thailand, as on a panacea, but still thought it would be a little easier than in Moscow Perhaps it was an illusion, or maybe just their own nuances enough, I do not know. What did I get good:
– I stopped cooking because I was sitting on fruit and Thai food from cafe (Yegor cook, of course). – Cleaning the house is minimal: swept the pier, but washed the dishes. Plus a cleaning woman comes once a week. —No need to warmly put Egor on the street. – Egor is all day in the open air, because the doors and windows are open. Specially No need to walk with him now. Instead of walking now trips / walks on the sea. – On the street, everyone is benevolent, they lisp with Yegor, not shug. Well, the sun is uplifting.
Daddy, let me help you with comments
From the bad, I don’t even know what to list. Basically this one point – the soul is not calm that I do not really do with Egor, then sleep bad, then eat bad, that one feeding takes two hours, then teeth are cut. In the end, it just does not work, then there is not enough time. Yes, fatigue accumulated over almost two years makes itself felt. But such hopeless days, when you want to shoot yourself, for now not
Another of the not very comfortable things – housing is not very much under Egor sharpened, I used to not track him at all in my apartment, what he does, because all the dangers are minimized, and then the eye Yes, the eye is needed – and climb somewhere, or on the tile Shandrahnutsya on level ground.
In the first week it was necessary to adapt not only to climate
During this visit I repeatedly find myself thinking that I want my own house, a base where the donkey would live permanently and travel would only occasionally and for a short time. Because to go with Egor it became difficult, there is no buzz. Ideally, you need to live on one place, even without moving from one house to another. Then do not need there will be things to disassemble / assemble, no need to look for new every time cafes and shops around, and most importantly, it will be possible to buy in house of all sorts of things and arrange it, taking into account the features. Trite the floor should be covered up with something softer, but you won’t do every 1-2 months, it is expensive.
The base wanted, where summer is all year round (not below +10), the sea the ocean is accessible by car and a good center / teacher for classes at hand.
Life
Days are like one another, as in Moscow, only the entourage of the other
When I lived in the first house on the shore, it was very convenient – you leave the house and immediately on the shore. Usually walk to the side a couple of hundred meters to the village of our friends. There they have on the beach a big tree creating a shadow under which a lot of frolicking children and their parents. Merry company And some days, there appeared a very tasty magic hand made pie and me fell into pieces.
He moved to the second house quite recently, and has not yet entered the rhythm. While driving by car to the beach.
By the way, if you come to Samui and are looking for accommodation, you can I personally see the compiled catalog of houses on Samui, where more than 80 houses with a map and photo. And housing for a short period, until look for a house, you can forget it via RoomGuru, it’s just a mega-service, it is immediately visible in which booking system (Bucking, Agoda, Hotels and td) the hotel you need is cheaper. I also have my own A detailed review of the best hotels in Samui.

Several times a week I go to Tesco and Big C. I try to combine several things at once: buy groceries, eat at the food court, and crawl away Egor on the local playground. The latter is not quite normal, her discovered recently – slides, dry pool, a lot of different obstacles.
Where have you been?
In fact, very little where I went. Essentially was only Paradise Park, a couple of times at the night market in Maenam (which time in week) and to the jazz festival at Chaweng jumped (trips to supermarkets do not think). Separately, I also visited the Big Buddha, two times in the Magic Garden, and so just drove around the neighborhood.
Another of the events – a meeting of readers in the children’s cafe Mickey Mickey. And since I always meet someone on the street, who I read or read, funny
