Phuket - Home when away from home

by buasaard - last update: Nov 22, 2003

Phuket is my second home, I live there when in Europe the sun is just a memory.
Why Phuket? Well Phuket has changed my life, 16 years ago I met my wife there and there's like a "fathal attraction" between me and that splendid island.

Phuket today and yesterday

Certainly Phuket has changed much in the last 17 years when I first put my feet on the island. Tourists change always the aspect of a place. However there are still a lot of quiet places and splendid beaches where someone can take the sun with very few people around.In this season the water is clear and the sea is calm.

Phuket or Patong?

Most tourists often confuse the whole Phuket with Patong. Patong is the most famous beach in the island, but in a certain way, the least beautiful. Overcrowded and water not clear, but you can just cross the cape and arrived in Karon is already another place.

 Very helpful tip about the Rehabilitation centre; we visited there June 2009 and it's a delightful place. Phuket is one of my favourite places in Thailand, thanks to the more unique experiences we had there like this.
