Krabi, Thailand
Papillon bistro and bakery is a place just outside Krabi town where Thai and western people meet to enjoy great food. Amazing breakfast, healthy lunch, delicious coffee's, breads and pastry's,...Ijang makes them with the biggest smile. Papillon's homey atmosphere, the enthusiasm and smile of the little Thai owner will make you feel like you never want to leave.....sorry but we are closed in the evenings;-) A big choice of fresh and all-natural ingredients makes Ijangs food and drinks The tastiest and healthiest available in Krabi. The Western-Thai menu changes monthly, from Thai dishes to home-made soups and from fresh salads to hearty sandwiches,ciabatta foccacia and nut breads,...Its all made with love!

First week Krabi


Hello again ,

We know it took us some time but here we are ,...in Krabi already.
We had a wonderfull last week in Koh Lanta with all our friends , we miss you all already. Big kisses and hugs to all of you .

On tuesday before we left Koh Lanta , we had a goodbye drink in Klapa klum where many of our friends showed up to make our (almost) last night a night to remember..( or starting to remember again;-) I had a hell of a time ,thanks!!
The next day was one of sleeping late and packing....a real last sunset and drink on the beach and mentally preparing for Krabi (  also planning holidays to Lanta off course, its not that far away... Dont think you get rid of us so soon;-)


Thursday morning : I get a wake up call already , some friends waiting in the restaurant to get a real, real, real, real last drink together ( a coffee this time , its morning ) and that made me a bit sad to go ,...so I can not pack the car ( I am sorry, Ijang and Pong ,next time I will help;-)and off we go .

 Ijang, Pong and Jens (one the new owners of Papillon Koh Lanta)are leaving with the car and I go with my motorbike ( name : the longtailboat ). He is great , my longtailboat , he brings me to Krabi , faster than the car . He even stopped to let me go to the toilet , have a drink and a snickers and then he safely dropped me in front of the new house. I will never leave you for another motorbike hon . Its me and you till you break down on me and the bike doctor can not help you anymore. 10 minutes after the longtailboat, the car arrives and we can unpack. Hell, that was fast ...
Winkie!
Do some paperwork for Jens ,some paperwork for Ijang , put Jens back on the minibus to Lanta , clean both of the bedrooms , buy a bed , a coffee machine, juicer, shaker, fridge and coffee off course , shower and sleep.  Next day , we have a visitor already! Ae and Nui come to see where we live . The rest of the time we spent on buying paint, ordering a small roof for outside ,a sliding door for the kitchen, internet, buying kitchen equipment, food etc.. 

The rest of the week we spent painting and painting and painting . Lena is our next visitor our little rabbit feet is leaving for Satun and it was good to see her before she goes. The next day, German Tina showed up ,Enjoy your hollidays on Lanta Tina !

Big hug to you all!




Ijangs pride and Joy!
