I honestly have been smiling the whole way through this video! You all deserve this, after writing a dissertation - and just anyway! I love the villa! I bet that was a massive reward after the flight. Enjoy enjoy!!! I really want us to have time on a beach this year. We haven’t been since well before covid, and I want to make it happen this year. So get those videos out and keep me motivated to book something!

Ah wow thank you! We also were itching yo travel after COVID. We used to go more often but life happens. The villa also was a VERY nice surprise. We booked the cheapest room at the hotel but the place isn't very full still (i think COVID is still affecting Thailand pretty hard). We've really enjoyed the pool and extra room while Jack naps.

Great video again. Ashton, you deserve it so much, not only for your PhD but also for overcoming your disease and becoming a mother and coordinating the works around the building process of your house. I am very glad, that the heavy investments of the german healthcare system and the educational system in you has paid off so well. Enjoy the love of your husband... and maybe you can produce one or two more little ones like you ... because we need more well mannered, good educated and open minded people here in Germany. All the best for you and I hope you will never leave.

The cutest part was Jack playing with his toes. Hope all of you had a great time! :-) My wife and I have been married for 42 years. We bought a house right away. So, we couldn't afford a honeymoon. Two years later, we went to Sam Lord's Castle in Bel Air, Barbados. We booked just a plain room. The resort was empty because we went in off season. The hotel manager upgraded use to a room in the Castle. This was a large difference in rooms. And, it didn't cost anything extra. Really cool! We has a huge pool and staff to take care of our every needs. It was located off the main dining room. Sam Lord was a real life pirate. He decided he had captured enough treasure. So, he hired European designers and crafted men to build the place. Except for the Hotel Le Château Frontenac in Québec-City Canada I have never stayed in such a facility. I have been watching your vcasts the last few weeks. All of you are great. Thanks for the infotainment.

I did a similar thing once - not on that scale, though. I was travelling a lot around Germany at that time and at one time I said to my wife not to expect me at home on Friday but to book a ticket to Frankfurt and meet me at Frankfurt main station with enough luggage for an extended weekend. Then I drove with her to the airport (she now realized that we weren't staying in Frankfurt, what she had thought so far) and only when I handed her the boarding pass she realized that we were going to Madrid for the weekend. She too was very surprised and equally happy! 👍😎 Nowadays we only travel to destinations we can reach with our electric car and don't fly anymore at all, to contribute to preserving the planet for the young ones like your Jack.

That's awesome 😍 what a thoughtful surprise. I bet that is such a wonderful memory you two won't ever forget. It reminds me a lot of a good friend of mine whose husband works for an airline. They get free Stand-by tickets and sometimes for fun they will go to the airport and either pack a "warm or cold bag" and take whatever weekend flight they can hop on last minute. I love the spontaneousness of it!

Congratulations Jonathan, very well done. To be honest, I was thinking and hoping of you would gift a well deserved surprise to Ashton when she got her PhD. And keeping the location a secret till arrival at the airport - wow. I also loved the fact that you've had to use all kinds of transportations - especially that you had to use a boat to finally get to your hotel. So she wouldn't know what it would look like till final arrival. And as icing on the cake, you got also surprised yourself by being upgraded. What an adventure 💖 Enjoy your time, highly deserved!

@@TypeAshton Yes, as tourism is the main income source for many in Thailand, the Covid restrictions hit them really hard. Some is open for business again, but others are not. There are a bunch of live cams on Samui island that i used to watch, showing the night life. Some bars and dance clubs are now open again - the biggest brothelstayed closed, and a few other places too. Probably gone bancrupt. But for someone like you it is a advantage. You can enjoy all its beauty undisturbed, and I guess the prices are good as well, since they are glad about every tourist that comes to Thailand.

Have fun - Phuket is beautiful. For Your next beach vacation I recommend the Seychelles or/and Mauritius. Both are perfect destinations with kids, almost no time difference and beautiful beaches.

Thank you! We did the Seychelles 2 years ago when COVID was happening only in China (timed it quite well.) I ALMOST got a trip to Mauritius instead of Thailand, but I could not find a better direct flight (Condor was the only airline flying direct.) Maybe next time. :)

@@TypeAshton I hope (I am sure) You had a great time in Thailand. For flying to Mauritius Condor is not a bad choice. They do offer a decent Premium Eco Class for a good price and also a affordable business class. The new Lufthansa subsidary "Eurowings Discover" is another nonstop choice to Mauritius. We did Emirates and Turkish on several occasions and took the opportunity for stopovers on the way back in Dubai/Istanbul.

You came 3 months too early. Starting from July you van get in without any test, vaccination or paperwork and you can travel freely from day one. I have been living in Thailand for 13 years. If you ever come to Chonburi, feel free to contact me. I can show you around.

We visited an elephant sanctuary yesterday and they also told us how hard COVID was for them. They had just opened in 2018 and the tourism was their main source of income to care for the rescued animals. 💔 Heartbreaking to hear of their struggles but happy they are open and welcoming visitors now.
