Today was another day of transition. We were packing up in Chiang Mai and heading about 5 hours south to Phitsanulok – my wife’s home changwat (or province). In the morning, our crew enjoyed breakfast at our hotel, the Loghome Boutique.... Read more >

Today was a great all-around day. We had arranged our own private “song teow” (two rows) truck to take us on a private tour up the mountain today. Sounds expensive, but it isn’t. The funny thing is that a driver will charge 300-400 ... Read more >

Today is the full moon of the 12 th month of the lunar calendar. That means it is Loi Krathong here in Thailand. One of the largest holidays, Loi Krathong – as the name suggests in Thai – is when you “float a basket.” That ... Read more >

To look into an elephant’s eyes is to gaze through the window to its soul. Beautiful. Majestic. Powerful. Gentle. I can’t think of another animal that I can bond with faster than an elephant and I’m not sure why. ... Read more >

Today was our first full day in Chiang Mai. We started our day by eating some breakfast at Sailomjoy Restaurant – yes, I ate Khao Soi again today. It was delicious yet again.
After breakfast, it was temple time. Starting off on ... Read more >

Happy Halloween! Another day of transition for us as we leave beautiful Phuket for the northern charm of Chiang Mai. We were so fortunate that the weather cooperated for us in Phuket. The rains held off on our boat tour to James Bond ... Read more >

It's here. Finally. I used to travel internationally for work almost every month years ago. Not anymore. My trips are the exception, not the norm. So when I travel now, it is for my wife and I -- and in this case, some great friends coming along as well.... Read more >

We finally came to leave Pai. We got a lift into town to get our bus tickets. The person in front of us at the station (who shoved his way in) got the last tickets for the Chiang Mai bus that day..... so we stayed another night! We headed across a rickety ... Read more >

As I told you in an earlier blog post, inside the wall in Chiang Mai is full of temples, lots and lots of temples. So we made a day out of exploring them. The Temples or Wat's, all require modest dress so shoulders must be covered, nothing with a low ... Read more >

After a few days resting and recovering from being sick, we moved from the hostel to a lovely guest house (even if we did think we were going to be relieved of all our belongings on the way there). It was down the smallest, winding backstreets with no ... Read more >

So the day had come for us to leave Bangkok and head North to Chiang Mai. We had done a bit of research about transport options and although flying seemed to be the quickest, the train was the cheapest. We decided we had the time and 'when in Rome', ... Read more >

Emotional is not the word! Devastated to be leaving Chiang Mai right now but I genuinely would have stayed there forever if I didn’t leave now.
First day I arrived I was so jet lagged I just had 3 beers, chilled and got talking to ... Read more >

Chiang Mai, Thailand
We left Bangkok by overnight train to Chiang Mai- a city in the northern part of Thailand, that hosts a far cleaner and tranquil atmosphere. The train ride was definitely an adventure for various reasons, but I am really ... Read more >

Après deux semaines d'aventure en Birmanie, nous voilà de retour en Thaïlande où nous nous sentons vraiment en vacances.
Ici, tout est beaucoup plus simple et propre qu'en Birmanie. En effet, même si ce n'est pas cher (comme les autres pays de l'Asie ...

I write this as we are headed south on a 15 hour day train ending our wonderful 2+ weeks in Chiang Mai and North Thailand. Chiang Mai is a beautiful place and during our time there we were certainly tested, but with a little help from new friends ... Read more >

After a couple of days relaxing in Sukothai, we headed up to Chiang Mai. The two Germans we met were on our bus, so we made some plans with them. We arrived in Chiang Mai on Sunday afternoon, just in time for the Sunday market. Chiang Mai is a walled ... Read more >

Ok! Let's get caught up. Halloween found us bound for Chiang Mai on the overnight train. Train #13, as it turned out, which we thought was pretty cool for the holiday. I wore a string of light-up pumpkin beads for my costume. We got to the ... Read more >

I had a major food overload yesterday. And way too much chilli.
Being around so much good food is inspiring. I'm already really motivated to cook well for myself when I return. Not just good Thai food but all the different types ... Read more >

I was a little disappointed with myself yesterday when I discovered there was a cooking school that did classes AND home-stay. The idea of it fit my original intention for this holiday so exactly, I couldn't help but kick myself mentally. I was really ... Read more >
