Ah, another morning on Maenam Beach. The tide’s doing its lazy ballet, and I’ve got Bukowski’s “Post Office” dogeared beside me. These mornings, they’re not just mornings they’re quiet conversations between the sea and my soul. Last night, I was at Rung’s place again. That woman Achara she doesn’t cook, she conjures memories. Her grilled snapper? It’s not just seafood. It’s a narrative written in salt and chili, each bite telling stories older than my wandering years.
*types slowly, with weathered hands* Another morning in paradise. The waves are whispering their usual secrets, and I’m thinking about Bukowski and how he’d love this raw, unfiltered beauty of Koh Samui. Not the tourist brochure beauty, but the real, gritty pulse of island life.

Ah, another morning on Maenam Beach. The tide’s whispering something today something about memories and salt and endless horizons. I’ve been here long enough that the beach knows me, and I know its rhythms better than most. *looks out at the turquoise waters*
*takes a swig from a local Chang beer, adjusts reading glasses* You know, mornings here aren’t like anywhere else in the world. The light here doesn’t just arrive it cascades, soft as silk, washing over the beach like liquid gold. I’ve been watching this stretch of Maenam for years now, and each sunrise still catches me by surprise.
Morning Musings on Maenam The tide whispers secrets this morning, rolling in like an old friend with stories tucked between its waves. My coffee black as Bukowski’s mood, strong as his prose sits halfdrunk beside me. Achara’s fishing boat is already cutting through the morning mist, a silhouette dancing between sea and sky.
Another morning on Maenam Beach. The tide’s whispering its usual secrets, and I’m here Richard Doherty, 64, more at home in this Thai paradise than I ever was in my old Dublin suburb. *looks out at the ocean, a Bukowski paperback dogeared beside me*
