Imagine waking up on a boat, watching the sunrise from your cabin and having an exciting day of diving ahead of you. You’ll get to explore the unique underwater world of the Similan and Surin islands in Thailand. If you’re lucky you might spot Whale sharks or Manta rays. And all of this every day for a full week. Doing a liveaboard makes this possible.

Welcome to my blog 'placesoflinda'. While I'm working remotely I enjoy to live in different places and travel around the world. I want to take you along my journey, share personal stories, give travel advice and inspire you.

Some Sunday sun facts 🌞 Did you know that the Some Sunday sun facts 🌞  Did you know that the earliest sunrise in Thailand is at 6 am and the latest sunset at around 7 pm?
Now in Germany the sun rises at 5 am and sets at only 10 pm.  Also the difference in distance to the equator affects the length of sunrise and sunset. While sunsets can take up to an hour in Europe, in Thailand they only last an average of 23 minutes.

What is it all really worth if it’s not hard to What is it all really worth if it’s not hard to say goodbye? ❤️  Until next time - thank you Koh Tao. Now off to the next location(s) for summer in Europe. 🌎  The past 8 months were so fulfilling. Which made me question many times whether the decision of leaving Thailand was the right one. As much as it hurts to say goodbye to the people I met & the dogs I took care of, I would relive the time on the island in the same way. Because what is it all really worth if it’s not hard to say goodbye? If there’s nothing to miss? If there’s nothing that makes you want to go back? 
The sweetness of a full life always has both - sunshine and rain, ups and downs, hopes and doubts, moments of love and also pain. And that’s what makes this life soo unforgettable.  Why leaving? It felt like it was time for a little change of location, gaining new perspectives and experiences. To grow, learn and prepare the next projects. And all I’ll experience the coming months, I’ll take with me to my island home one day. There’s no doubt; I’ll be back. 🏝🐢  #kohtao #happyplace #islandhome #nomadlifecontinues #thailand #digitalnomad #homeiswheremybackpackis #travelthailand #helloeurope #workandtravel #beautifuldestinations #neverstopexploring
