It’s a trip and a video of superlatives, apart from the dodgy bathroom. I love the retro graphics and the music of RMS.

[@christineomara4787]

Makes me so want to go back to Thailand 😊

[@earlyretirementwanderlust]

It’s a beautiful place to be! 🏝️

[@SharonMcMillan]

Oh goodness Richard you outdid yourself on the RMS in this video - this is definitely the Hall of Fame edition 😅 I’m enjoying seeing all the idyllic beaches on these tiny Thai islands - thanks to you both!

[@earlyretirementwanderlust]

It was certainly one of the more interesting en suite arrangements we have had!! 🤣 but both islands were absolutely stunning 🏝️

[@liliindia]

Hello, this video, your music, all & everything in it is so beautiful, so nice to watch, thanx

[@earlyretirementwanderlust]

Thank you ☺️🏝️

[@AndrewMattison-o2k]

Rate my shower… hilarious 😂😂. Keep on posting x

[@HMTL1973]

Best edition of ‘Rate my shower’ to date, Richard! 😂

[@earlyretirementwanderlust]

It was a cracker 🤣 the lack of hot water was the least of our issues!!

[@NomadsNest1UK]

It all looks beautiful! 👍

[@earlyretirementwanderlust]

Thank you! 😊 we have really liked exploring the smaller islands x

[@notlostadventures]

Really enjoyed your video, and laughed out loud at your description of the distressed look in the Koh Kradan bathroom. We were in both Koh Muk and Koh Kradan about one year ago and just loved both islands. The birds that look like Toucans are actually Great Hornbills. We saw several of them on Koh Muk.

[@earlyretirementwanderlust]

Thanks for that - I did think the bills were not as colourful as they could be - they were pretty magnificent ❤️ both islands were beautiful and so peaceful 🏝️ the shower arrangements and the room in general at Koh Kradan were ‘interesting’ to say the least 🤣 but it meant we could experience a beautiful place 😊

[@carolinenelson7890]

Looks beautiful.

[@earlyretirementwanderlust]

They were 2 small, peaceful beautiful islands 🏝️

[@VanBuffington]

Wow, these are going to be memories that keep paying back. I love the way you’ve already explored so many different sides of Thailand and balanced the travel with some chill out time. Thanks for sharing the journey both.

[@earlyretirementwanderlust]

Thank you so much! We have loved Thailand so far and have certainly seen some incredible places along the way - the area we are in at the moment - Khoa Lake has been pretty spectacular too!!

[@janetbowen7854]

OMG that shower 😂. However, the beach looks incredible, love your other accommodation, you lucked out😮. Hope your plans come together for the rest of the week. ❤xxx

[@earlyretirementwanderlust]

🤣 it was not the best shower we have ever had!! But the island was stunning so almost worth the compromise but if we were to go again we would choose different accommodation. The cheeky upgrade on Koh Mook was incredible ❤️ x

[@randlcars4582]

Hi guys is this an up to-date video ie are you filming in November thanks Andy

[@earlyretirementwanderlust]

Hi yes - we were on the islands a couple of weeks ago x

[@willlsmith8063]

Thanks for taking us along .........looks fantastic. Rate My Shower PMSL

[@earlyretirementwanderlust]

Thanks Will- glad that you are enjoying. RMS was a classic- we always said that we wouldn't feature unduly harsh reviews, but for the money they were charging we felt that it deserved a RMS review. I am still worried where that water drained to...😬

[@dianed2919]

😮that shower room, not sure about the towel for blanket, all life experiences though , my daughter experienced the same with a coconut shower head and a bucket toilet ! You are definitely seeing some amazing locations. Safe travels to next one.

[@earlyretirementwanderlust]

It was quite an experience at the Kradan beach resort but it made us be able to stay in a beautiful place so it was worth it - not sure I would have coped with a bucket toilet though 🤣🤣 the towel was not a nice alternative to a sheet in a room with no air conditioning 😵‍💫

[@AngelaPerkins-i3w]

Island hopping looked great, loved the rate my shower, happy travels❤

[@earlyretirementwanderlust]

It was definitely one of the more interesting en suites we have had on Koh Radan 🤣 the islands were wonderful ❤️
