Koh Tao- Everybody Comes Back

I find myself sitting in a hammock on the beach. It's night and the waves aren't more than two inches tall. Glass flat water with the sound of fun chill out music in the background. 

I've been back on Koh Tao for two weeks now. Saw a sea turtle my first dive back, the island "welcomed me back", but not as awesomely as my friends did. It was my birthday the day after I got back and everybody came out and it was a blast- I've never preferred loud places so we went to the one Mini-Golf course on the island. Had a few drinks, played some golf, and shared a lot of laughs. Getting back into my rhythm has been such a joy. I've got a little bungalow about 10 yards from the beach. My morning "commute" to work is 2 minutes from my door to the shop door by motorbike.

Every day starts out the same way. Up by 8, Planet Scuba by 845ish, then either diving, pool with students, or office work.

Days finish at 6, Safety Stop Pub for a beer or maybe one of my other favorites, then chill out with friends and get ready for the next awesome day.

I've settled in brilliantly. I'm teaching again, I didn't realize at all how much I had missed it until I got back. I'm hoping to be getting back into my blog pretty steady- for the time being most likely writing about classes or dives or people. 

Thanks for reading! Stories to come soon!
