Nikoi Island

It has been a while since we last posted on our blog. We had a lot of visitors over the last five weeks. First, Bastian's parents were here for around two weeks. Directly afterwards, my parents were there for another two weeks. Somewhere in between, Bastian's brother stayed for about four weeks. It was a great time with all of them and we got the chance to travel to Nikoi, Bangkok and Saigon. As you can see, our first trip was with Bastian's parents to Nikoi Island. The pictures speak for themselves...

Besides another couple, we were the only guests on the island.

One of seven cottages on the island.
