00:00Looking for so much more
00:02Don't leave me here searching
00:05You're just what I'm longing for
00:07The water is so
00:09clear and warm
00:15Wow, it's pretty epic
00:17View from the balcony
00:19Check it out
00:20Wow, this is really perfect
00:23It's so nice
00:26Oh, that's so sweet
00:28Thank you
00:49G'day guys
00:50We're coming to you from
00:51Koh Samui
00:53It's checkout day, we've spent a week here
00:57We're leaving this morning on our way back home
00:59To Hua Hin
01:00But we are driving today
01:02To a little town sort of halfway between here
01:05And Hua Hin called
01:06Cham Phong, Cham Phong, Cham Phong
01:09I'm not sure, but it's a cool little beach town
01:11It's about three and a half hours
01:12Drive from where
01:14The ferry gets off
01:16Anyway, we're just gonna get some breakfast from the
01:18Breakfast buffet
01:20So
01:21Pack the car up and go
01:22Because we have to
01:24Meet the ferry terminal by
01:269.30
01:29And it's an hour drive
01:30From this side of the island
01:32To where the ferry takes off
01:34So we gotta get moving
01:35We've had a good week here in Koh Samui
01:37Let's find a go Samui
02:01Alright, we had a quick breaky
02:03As usual
02:04Everybody wants to hold the baby
02:06I have one small gripe with
02:08Not only this hotel
02:10But pretty much every hotel
02:11And tell me what you think
02:12In the comments below if you agree
02:13Why are the coffee cups
02:15So small?
02:17And not just the cup
02:19The handle
02:20I've burnt myself
02:21Like literally
02:22Third degree burned
02:23On my finger
02:24From spilling it the other day
02:26And every day since
02:28I've burnt myself
02:29And I'm just wondering
02:30Is this like an economic thing?
02:32Like do they not want you to drink too much coffee?
02:35It is just cheap to buy those ones in bulk
02:37Hotel owners
02:38Tell me
02:39Please
02:40And can we get
02:41Real coffee mugs?
02:43That's my van
02:46We are heading to
02:49Champon
02:51Champon?
02:52Champon?
02:56Champon
02:59Champon
03:05Champon
03:06Champon
03:06Champon
03:07Champon
03:08Champon
03:08Champon
03:09Ok guys today we are headed to Champon
03:19Ok we made it to the ferry an hour early which means we got on the early ferry but
03:26I fucked up I bought us a ferry ticket from Surat Dhani to Koh Samui instead
03:33of from Koh Samui to Surat Dhani and they couldn't swap it so we just had to
03:37buy a new ticket but luckily it's only 580 baht so it's like 20 bucks sorry
03:43honey we've made worse mistakes than that before we've definitely made worse
03:47mistakes at least we got an hour early that gives us heaps more time to get to
03:51jump on is that what we're saying jump on jump on
04:07so Mandy's just chilling in the car with Lila we had a pretty good time on Koh Samui
04:11honestly we mostly just relaxed at the resort we didn't film anywhere near as
04:17much as what we wanted to think because we did so much in the first like 10
04:21days we moved around a lot and filmed every single day and by the time we got
04:26to Koh Samui we were just really kind of tired from lack of sleep but also filming
04:31everything and moving around so it was a good little holiday but I definitely
04:36think Koh Samui is on our radar for places to come back to we're gonna come
04:42back in a couple of months because I had a really good vibe to it it's kind of
04:47feels like Bali did a few years ago I am a little bit worried that it's gonna get
04:53overrun and over busy like Bali but the roads are way better so you don't have to
04:59worry about all the congestion and traffic yeah we had some issues with our drone
05:05stopped working the remote controller we couldn't figure that out we're meant to
05:09film a couple of properties that would have been awesome to film like full
05:15luxury high-end properties very unique one of them cancelled on us last minute
05:21unfortunately the other one we had to cancel because our camera wasn't working
05:25yeah we also had a tour booked they got cancelled because of the weather so we had
05:32a big stack week planned in Koh Samui which ended up just being honestly kind of a nice just family
05:40holiday and I'm not really complaining about that at all I feel like we got
05:44enough travel vlogging done in the 10 days before we got to Koh Samui that yeah it was
05:51good to take the travel vlogger hat off and just have our first real holiday as a family and it
06:00was
06:00great definitely be coming back but heading back home now which I'm not upset
06:06about either because I'm really looking forward to sleeping in our own bed home
06:11cooked food going back to the gym and jiu-jitsu and yoga and just getting into
06:15our routine pretty stoked about that
06:24this is a way better ferry than on the way here
06:27much bigger which is probably good because we paid twice for it

09:35cool
09:36it's like an island right over here it looks like bungalows right on the beach so it should be good
10:00well it's pretty epic view from the balcony check it out
10:20not too bad it's called uh the nest beach resort i think it's called and it was about four thousand
10:28baht for the night including breakfast this is just like the deluxe room there's also like beachfront
10:34villas you can get for a bit more but this seems good enough for us we're gonna be here less

11:08this resort and this island over here i think we're gonna swim in the beach
11:31wow this is amazing
11:32the water is so clear and warm and i just can't believe how isolated this is here look at this
11:45so
11:56so
11:56so
11:57so
11:57so
14:14How'd you sleep?
14:15I feel like asking a new mum how she slept is actually like a recipe for disaster.
14:20Oh, that's so sweet.
14:24Thank you so much.
14:26My first Valentine.
14:28Oh, what I meant to say was Happy Valentine's Day.
14:32I forgot it was Valentine's Day.
14:34Have we ever celebrated?
14:36I don't think so.
14:36Pretty sure our first date was the Super Bowl when it was on Valentine's Day.
14:41Yeah.
14:41No.
14:42The NBA All-Star Game.
14:43One of our first dates on Valentine's Day.
14:46So that was a celebration.
14:49Yeah.
14:51Thanks, honey.
14:52It was awesome.
14:53We ate natos and drank beer.
14:55I'm a romantic.
14:59It's funny.
15:00I thought with having a baby the problem that I like everyone always would say like you're
15:05going to be up all night with a crying baby and not pretty much like me up crying because
15:09I can't sleep.
15:10I've got insomnia and she sleeps fine.
15:12So whatever.
15:13I'd rather her have a better sleep than me one day.
15:16Pretty good spot to wake up to though.
15:17Yeah.
15:22Okay.
15:22So I was just talking to the owner of this resort.
15:26His name is Max, I think.
15:27French guy.
15:28Really cool.
15:29And he told me that the reason it's called The Nest is because this island directly across
15:36from us here, it's a private island.
15:40There's like a house on it and a private beach and it's protected because there's like
15:45some really rare species of birds.
15:48They're really big birds, he said.
15:50So they're protected by like the Thai government.
15:53He said you can go and visit the beach there, but you're not allowed to like walk around the
15:59island or anything because it is protected.
16:02And he said the Thai government is like cracking down on that sort of thing a little bit more
16:07in recent years.
16:08It'd be cool to like kayak or something over to that island.
16:11But I think they probably don't want too many visitors because like they're going to ruin
16:16it, which is probably a good thing.
16:18Like so much of Thailand is all about tourism.
16:21It's good to have some stuff protected.
16:23On another note, I think I mentioned in an earlier video that our drone stopped working
16:27pretty much as soon as we got to Koh Samui.
16:30Had this problem.
16:31I was literally trying to figure it out for like four or five days.
16:35Asked our Instagram community, was calling people, asking everyone how to sort it out.
16:41Couldn't get it sorted.
16:42And then we got here and it was like the most epic, epic beach and place to fly a drone.
16:50And I was just gutted that it wasn't going to work.
16:52But Mandy was like, just try it.
16:54Just like turn it on and see if it works.
16:56And it fucking worked.
16:58Just out of the blue.
16:59Didn't change anything.
17:00The error that was coming up didn't come up and it just worked.
17:03And it wasn't an airport thing with Koh Samui.
17:06It was something to do with the remote controller needing to be recalibrated and that wasn't working.
17:10So I don't know how to explain that.
17:12For whatever reason, the universe didn't want us to have a drone in Koh Samui for whatever reason.
17:18Yesterday it started working.
17:19So we got some sick drone shots that I'm really happy about.
17:22going back in to The
17:52all right that wraps up our first holiday with a baby and our three-week road trip in thailand
17:59what a great time we had actually we learned a lot a few things we would have done differently
18:04but all in all we had an amazing time we found some awesome new places that we've never been
18:08before i think our next video is going to be reflecting on this trip and everything we wish
18:15we knew before traveling with a baby since this is the first time we've ever done it
18:19yeah and it also feels like a lot of people think they have to quit traveling or quit doing things
18:24that they love just because they've had a child and we think the opposite we think that you can
18:30like integrate your kid into your life and share the things that you love with them instead so yeah
18:36in the next video we'll share what we wish we knew i guess before we went traveling yeah so if
18:42you want
