Okay, Well, I’d like to talk about a special holiday that I had with my close friends in Thailand many years ago. It was actually a journey for celebrating our graduation.

On the first day, we stayed in a hotel near the sea but far from those scenic spots. You know, the famous tourist attractions are always full of visitors, noisy and annoying. We just wanted to go to some places quiet and peaceful, which allowed us to admire the miracle of the nature.

In the morning, we stayed in bed, seeing the sunrise from the sea level, with the view of whole sea through the window. Then, we went out for some fresh airt lying on the beach and swimming in the sea at will. When the sunset came, walking along the sea was a pretty good choice, where we talked to each other about the hope of our future. At night, we enjoyed some goafs cheese, fried chicken, mashed potatoes, and cocktails on the beach while chatting with each other. It was quite cozy and pleased.

Early in the morning on the second day, we rented a SUV from a travel agency in Bangkok city in case we wanted to see around. After all, as the old saying goes: “the most beautiful views exist on the way to your destination.n We drove the car to almost everywhere the car could reach, enjoyed stunning landscape and abundant natural resources, and even tried some local food that looked disgusting but tasted quite mouth-watering.

Well, I was super excited coz it was the first time we went abroad together, and it was probably the last time we stayed with each other. So it is of great sentimental value to us. You know, sometimes people feel something special not because what they didf but who they did with.
