At the end of the week I'm setting out on something similar. I work for a startup that lets employees work one month a year from anywhere. I'm flying to Hong Kong and then onwards to Koh Lanta in Thailand for a month. Beautiful beaches and (reportedly) decent wifi. There's even a coworking space. The company offers a cash bonus to cover some of the expenses and I used frequent flyer miles for the ticket so I'm only out a few hundred bucks from my own pocket for this excursion.

I just came from Koh Lanta. Amazing place, quite literally the most beautiful one I've ever been to. I spent a few days in Ko Phi Phi, which is great for partying, then went to Koh Lanta to chill. It's incredibly relaxed vibes. I went to Hong Kong afterward and spent the whole time there missing Koh Lanta!

  I've only been to Koh Phangan and Koh Samui before so I'm definitely looking forward to checking out the Andanaman Sea side. Since I'll be working I decided I don't want to move around islands, just pick one place and work there.

    Ah nice. I was hoping to make it to Koh Phangan for the full moon party but my girlfriend got sick that day and we stayed in Phuket. :( I haven't seen the Eastern islands myself -- definitely next on the list. Be sure to check out the herbal selection in koh lanta! ;)

I've been to Koh lanta as well, mostly at Klong Nin beach which is a bit more off than the rest of the island but nice enough. Really liked the chill vibe of the island compare to some of the other places. Don't forget to check out mong bar for their various "full moon parties" and Rasta baby bar which is really cosy reggae bar on Klong Nin. If anyone has tips on where to work and/or stay on the rest of the island I'd appreciate it, might go back and remote work some later this year
