A few months ago I took my first trip to Cherating and befriended an Australian on extended holiday. He stayed longer than I did, left, and has now returned for a few more weeks. Of course, I jumped at the chance to see him and catch up. And really, how can you go wrong with a beautiful beach nearby? As an added bonus, my friend had spent a lot of time in Cherating, which means he knows everyone. Which means that in a short time, I would too.
I arrived Friday evening just before dinner. We went to have some drinks with an ocean view before heading to my favorite ikan bakar restaurant. But they were out of prawns so I ended up with an omelet instead. Luckily, that was the only disappointment of the weekend.
