    Phuket as the Caribbean of Asia

    When I arrived to Phuket (after several days of culturally exploring Thailand), I finally felt that the relaxation that should occur at some point during every vacation, finally began! From my view through the tiny airplane window, I knew Phuket would provide me the island vibes I needed. As you exit the tiny Phuketwan airport, you are hit with a burst of hot, Caribbean-like air. Reality check: I am 8,000 miles away
