Koh Pha Ngan
In the 80s Koh Pha Ngan was far back in development in contrast to its neighboring island Koh Samui. There were only dirt roads and hardly any private car. A few Thai families had built simple bamboo huts on the beach for a few backpacking tourists. We ate what the family cooked for us, it was always very tasty. There were no shops or exchange offices, no bank or post office. So the length of stay on this island was limited.
Staying simple and enjoy nature that was so relaxing and good for body and mind!
I took this photo in December 1983 with my analog Nikon FE camera, on 35mm Kodachrome slide film, and now scanned with Nikon Coolscan LS40ED film scanner.
