    That hostel is epic! Looks really new, modern and quite unlike many hostels you find in Thailand. So happy you both had a great time in Koh Samui! What a stellar island. Matthews so funny… “I can imagine lying around at home in these”. 😂 love it 🤣 Watching your videos brings back sooo many Thailand memories for me and it’s giving me the travel bug again!
    The attention to detail of this hostel is amazing btw, especially in the dorm rooms.. Impressed.
    Watching you eat foods might be one of my fave things cause of your pure joy and excitement 😂 reminds me of myself.. fruit is like natures candy 😍😍😍

      The worst thing about having the toilet seat up is when you have to wee in the middle of the night and feel like you’re falling when you sit down because someone left it up! And it’s sooo cold! 😂😂😂

    • @HollyGabrielle
      @HollyGabrielle  2 роки тому +4

      it was incredible and I agree, the attention to detail was just 👌🏻 !!! Oh and and food of course, so so good (as I love to say haha) 😅 and Matthew and I have definitely had a great laugh between us over this month 😂 I hope you can get back to Thailand one day 💚✨

      @@brianna88 I am a thin slim body my whole life but I lift the seat up all the time. Don’t know why, but it is more comfy to sit. Better than the seat down because it is so tight for my butt.
      Then I found out I have a PEAR body type. My hips are bigger than I thought it was.

    I am the one who have mentioned the office in your other video so the fact that you have talked about me it was the highlight of my day.
    It wasn’t triggering or anything not knowing the office it is just a very good show and you should watch it . I have watched more than 5 times when I was in the dorm .

    Another fantastic travel adventures of Holly & Matthew in Thailand. Great that the Chef made vegan food for Holly even though it's not on the menu ( it helps the Chef see if there's demand for vegan food options and challenges their cooking skills). The hostel looks amazing and love 🥰 the vlog and love 💕❤️ Holly & Matthew. Love 💞😍 the bloopers at the end of the vlog.

    New subscriber here. I'm loving your Thailand vids. I was there (Koh Lanta, Bangkok and Koh Phangan) years ago and I'm still missing it. Would love to visit Chiang Mai and Elephant Nature Park, which is an awesome sanctuary like 60 km from the city.

    the lid should definitly be down, in fact even before flushing the toilet you have to put the lid down, bc you just get germs sprayed at your face if you flush it with the lid open anywayyyyy

    This is an amazing trip. But the trouble is we bot got food poisoning on first days in Thailand ( it was very bad)
