📣 ประชาสัม

Hey there. Richard Doherty here, writing from my little slice of paradise on Maenam Beach. The morning light’s painting the ocean in shades Bukowski would’ve loved – if he’d ever traded his bottle for a beach view.

Just finished a breakfast of grilled mackerel from old Somchai’s boat down the beach. The fish was so fresh it practically leaped onto my plate, still whispering tales of the Gulf of Thailand. These local fishermen they’re poets without pens, their stories told through the day’s catch.

*adjusts worn linen shirt, takes a swig from a local Singha beer*

Ah, another morning on Maenam. The tide’s whispering its usual gossip, and the coconut palms are swaying like old friends sharing secrets. Been here since ’98, and this beach? She never gets tired of telling her stories. Just finished reading some Bukowski “Post Office” again. Man knew how to slice life open and serve it raw. Not unlike how Achara down at the seafood stall prepares her morning catch. Speaking of which, I should wander down there soon.

*takes a swig from a worn coffee mug, looks out over Maenam Beach*

Another morning in paradise, eh? The waves are whispering their usual tales today, gentle like an old lover’s breath. I’ve been here on Koh Samui long enough that the rhythms of this place are tattooed into my bones. Just finished reading a worn Bukowski paperback “Post Office”, I think. That old bastard knew how to capture the raw, unvarnished truth. Not unlike how these local fishermen pull their catch from the sea no pretense, just pure existence.

*Takes a swig from a slightly weathered coffee mug, looks out over the Maenam Beach waves*

Ah, another morning in paradise. The sea’s breathing its soft rhythm, and I’m nursing my third cup of local coffee strong enough to wake the spirits of a hundred Bukowski novels. Today feels like one of those days where the world seems to pause, just for a moment. The fishermen are already out, their longtail boats cutting gentle lines across the morning’s silver canvas. I can smell the street vendor’s som tam being prepared down the beach that perfect dance of chili, lime, and green papaya that makes your taste buds sing a rebellious song.

Just another morning on Maenam Beach. The tide’s whispering its usual morning gossip, and the fishermen are already out, their longtail boats cutting through the silverblue waters like old friends who know every secret of this coastline. I’ve been here for years now, and Koh Samui still surprises me. This morning, I’m thinking about Bukowski and how he’d love this raw, unfiltered beauty. Not the postcard perfection, but the real pulse of the place the way the street vendors call out, the random dogs lounging like they own the universe, the smell of lemongrass and chili that hangs in the air like a promise.

Hey there, it’s Richard. Been up since the crack of dawn, watching the tide roll in over Maenam Beach. There’s something about mornings here that Bukowski would’ve loved — raw, unfiltered, with a hint of melancholy mixed with pure, unadulterated beauty.

Just finished my morning coffee from the little street vendor down the lane. His brew is like liquid poetry — strong enough to wake the ghosts of a thousand hangovers, smooth enough to make you forget whatever demons were chasing you yesterday.
