Biography

Destination expert: Koh Samui, Thailand Alex Hammond is a farang (foreigner) from a cold climate, who first visited Koh Samui, Thailand in 2003. Drawing on 13 years' Koh Samui experience, she and her brother wrote The Koh Samui Guide they wish they'd had on their first few visits. The trips when they packed the wrong things, got badly sunburned and wondered about everything from 'is the water safe to drink', to 'where can I buy champagne?'. Now in its 5th edition, The Koh Samui Guide has been an Amazon Asia travel best-seller (#3!!!), has been read in over 70 countries, and continues to receive fantastic feedback from people all over the world. Alex is confident it will make your holiday even better – ongoing research leaves no plate of Pad Thai behind.
