Hi, I’m Nikolay, 30, an ordinary programmer, living far beyond MKAD – to be more exact on one of the Thai islands in the South China Sea. ))

This day was not much different from all others. January 9th, 2012.

Sorry if the photos quality is not good, I had only a cellphone.

So let’s go!

It’s the sunlight that usually wakes me up. Last week it was raining so I slept till midday, this week is sunny…

Almost 8. Usually I still sleep at this time.

Already light outside

Dishevelled and unshaved after sleep and looking somewhere aside.

These things will help me…

I guess it’s a better look

Leaving the house

And here’s the place I like to visit in the morning.

And when I’m back it’s already…

Shower now

Time to have a light breakfast
The Thais seem to have a good sense of humor, and bottles with purer water (almost distilled) are sold here under the mark H2O. That tiny thing near the kettle is a Pu-erh pill – such  black tea.

Ready

While it’s getting cooler, I pay attention to the laptop.

The tea has got colder, and for breakfast I have a couple of vitamins.

At the laptop I sit up to…

Putting on the helmet and the glasses

Where is my dear bike?

And off I go!

Time of Thai massage. Today I ordered the tourist’s one, half massage that takes only one hour. The complete Thai massage takes 2 hours, I choose it once a week.

One hour has gone and I got hungry. I went to a Mexican restaurant nearby. Mexican cuisine reminds me California ))

There is no conception of business lunches in this place (it’s supposed people rest but not work here), but they offer daily special one, with 20% discount. Today’s special is some mosterburger.

As I’ve never ordered it I am ordering it now. Noooo…. Fajita or taco with chicken remain my favorite Mexican dishes… No burgers in future!

While I was having lunch my bike was blocked by tangerines sellers, however they left soon.

I don’t have any special plan for today, so I am thinking where I can go… Oh! The beach! I’ve never gone there in daytime.

Here I am, looking to the right…

and to the left…

and up in front of me…

No, thanks! I won’t bathe in such waves! But someone does!

In fact I don’t even have swimming trunks… By the way, what’s this?

I’ve wanted to try this thing since long ago. No matter that I have no proper suit. For half an hour I am playing with the waves on this jet ski.

Salty and wet I ride on my usual bike home..

Pool and shower

Current time

I go to the nearest supermarket to see there…

I’ve seen Sherlock and Real Steel, only MI4 seems to remain…

I am back at 5

Sit on my bike…

And go to a Thai cafe

Here they squeeze out the whole mango into the glass and give me my favorite chicken soup with coconut milk.

Almost at 6 I’m back home

And 7 now, did you notice how dark it got outside?

The laptop leaves the table to be put on the bed.

And I’m taking my light  8 o’clock dinner

By 10 pm I have a gecko visitor (recently I got another, much bigger pangolin guest).

I offer it to go outside

Time to sleep, isnt’ it?

Tooth brush again
