We thought we'd tell you a little bit about our local area in Khao Tao. We are staying in an Airbnb apartment which is a 10 minute walk to Rescue PAWS either along the beach or along the main road. There's some photos here.
As you can see our infinity pool overlooks the beach.
Khao Tao is a village 10 minutes drive south of Hua Hin (a big town with shopping malls, cinemas and all major hotel chains). Our beach is not tourist oriented and is empty apart from a few fishing boats. Ideal for dog walking! On the main road out the front there's a few small grocery stores (barely the size of a corner shop in the UK), 3 or 4 eating places and a couple of smarter restaurants at one end, and street food stalls selling all sorts of unidentifiable foods (including the lady with delicious cashew and vanilla battered bananas).
This morning I (Sue) went along to a cookery class with some of the other volunteers and we made Pad Thai, either vegetarian or with prawns. Then we ate it! The course was at one of the small eateries on the main road known to the volunteers as the 35 Baht restaurant because everything on the menu is 35 Baht (approximately 80p). We learned from the owners Pom and Pao that it's actually called Two P's.
