Curator’s statement
Phuket is the largest island in Thailand with unlimited adventures from beaches to bars. A luxurious experience for a reasonable price considering the currency conversion. I traveled here for my Kobe year for a week, while the travel time was long, it was so worth it. The culture was my favorite part of this trip. Thailand is on my no-limit list for travel spots.

Kata Beach - Snorkeling in the corral blue sea.
Big Buddha - Hope for the future but a temple filled with monks and prayers.
3D Trickeye Museum - Filled with many wall illusions and laughs (if you’re a couple traveling, consider bringing a tripod to capture the moments together as you will have to take your own pictures).
