Almost everyone flees the island once the FMP ends and the island becomes dead. Some are so savage that they even plan to party until the first ferry. It is a bit sad that everyone only knows Koh Phangan for the FMP because it has a lot more to offer than just partying. My situation was a bit different though, I lost my debit card so that kept me a good 5 days after. This meant I had to break off from my travel group as they continued their journey on to Koh Tao. Sad but happy to be able to give my body a rest. Like I have said before, when you travel, you will find that you are never alone. When you travel in a large group, it is always a party. It makes me value my time alone. Once they left the island, I moved out of town to my friends resort for some pure zen mode festivities.
My own clean bungalow, some chill down-to-earth travelers and good internet connection...it was all I needed to set my head down and figure out my next move. By this point, my funds were low and I knew if I didn't get to Europe fast enough I'd never make it there. Plus, I had someone waiting for me in France, so France it was. With my ticket bought, my accommodation figured out all I had to do was make it happen. My flight was out of Bangkok which was perfect because I have always wanted to experience the madness that the people and the movies describe. I just didn't want to do it alone considering how dangerous it can be. So, of course I found a traveler going on the same route, his name was Moe from Germany! Both Bangkok virgins, we traveled to explore the nitty gritty city of Bangkok.
