INDOCHINA RIDE WITH DJ: DAY 10 - 12

DAY 10, 21 Sept 14: KOH SAMUI

Today is my rest day. I woke up late and just lazed at my room, waiting for my biker friend, Nurul Teh come to fetch me at 1pm. 

The beach near my GH

I had met Nurul only one time previously. Nurul resided in Koh Samui since few months back after she resigned from her job at an oil and gas company. She practiced yoga and had some students of her own. She came with a scooter and asked me to be her pillion. I seldom being a pillion, and being one, I felt very awkward that I screamed few times. Gayat wehh...LOL that was hillarious. Nurul brought me to a Muslim restaurant for lunch. We had rice with seafood tomyam, steamed fish, fried veges, and ohhh cucumber with sambal belacan. How I had missed that. We chatted for hours and this lady really surprised me with her life story. What an incredible and strong woman she was. I really admired her spirit and determination. 

After that, Nurul brought me round the island and later to her nice and cozy house. Finally, after spending 5 hours together, she sent me back to my GH. Thank you very much Nurul for a wonderful time and for sharing with me your amazing life story. Do let me borrow your spirit to apply in my own life.

DAY 11 & 12, 22 – 23 Sept 14: KOH SAMUI – NAKHON SITHAMMARAT – DANNOK – SUNGAI PETANI

I checked out around 10am and made my way to the pier. Theres not many vehicles and after purchasing the ticket (B250), I rode into the ferry. Arriving Don Sak, I rode via route 401 to Nakhon Sithammarat where I stopped for fuel and a light snack. After that, it was all the way via route 41 – 4 without stopping at all until I reached Dannok, where I stopped for the famous grilled meat. 

B70 per plate...I had two plates :)

Upon entering Malaysia, I met my FB fan who had been waiting for me and we chatted for about 1 hour. Then I proceeded to my friend’s house at Sungai Petani. It was already dark and I still havent fix my head light. I had to ride slowly. Thank god I managed to find her house.

The next morning, I rode to Honda HQ at Batu Kawan to have the technician checked the head light problem. It was only the fuse. What a relief. Then I rode straight to Ipoh, my home sweet home...
