Krabi

And so we found that it was sort of you know, contraindicated for us to be in that community because, um, we're working really hard to get people regulated and calm and then they go outside the property and it's just like really chaotic.

So then after a couple of years there, we moved to Krabi, which is, um, on the South coast of Thailand, uh, and is much smaller and much wider.

And we are where we are now.

We're beachfront.

we've

noticed in Thailand, especially like you can get clothes, like when you're not in the touristy areas, if you're a little bit out, say you're going to Krabi town or you're a little bit out of, you know, the main touristy areas or the main Anang food night market, you're paying nearly half for a very same or similar thing in terms of clothes or you know souvenirs or or not fresh food and stuff i mean i remember in turkey when we were walking um through istanbul and we stayed there in terms of location we we would we were tracking the price of the turkish delight so i remember in in the middle of istanbul you're gonna have to correct me because this might i might be starting wrong here but i think it was something like 1800 lira or something a kilo it was like nearly a hundred dollars a kilo And the further out we walked from that main circle in Istanbul, we just watched the price of the Turkish Delight drop and drop and drop for the exact same thing.

And I think we walked like two Ks out and we paid less than half of what we would have paid in the centre.

Yeah, it does.

If there are any more details, we'll have more investigations and information on a story update on thetiger.com. For now, let's talk about some good news coming out of Maya Bay that's reopening after a two-month conservation closure.

Maya Bay in Krabi has reopened to visitors after its annual two-month conservation closure during the monsoon season.

The famous beach Angkot Pipilei closes every year from August 1st to September 30th, giving the beach and surrounding marine ecosystem a break from tourism, while rough seasonal seas can also make boat travel more difficult.

Visitors can now return, but strict conservation measures remain in place.
