Photo of the day: The cooking station @ Zabb E Lee Thai Cooking School. We decided today will be a chill day for us.

Asia Day 28: Chiang Mai (Wat Suan Dok)
Photo of the day: Wat Suan Dok. So last evening, I was looking up meditation retreats and only found one, which offered a one-day retreat. Apparently, a proper retreat should be at least 10 days and some were offered up to 26 days! I was just looking for an introduction to meditation so I thought… Continue reading Asia Day 28: Chiang Mai (Wat Suan Dok)
Asia Day 27: Chiang Mai (Khao Soi – Huen Phen)
Photo of the day: Khao Soi @ ข้าวซอยแม่สาย. Photo credit: Aaron. We arrived at Chiang Mai at around 10am, which is more than one hour after its scheduled time but that's ok with us since our check-in time for the Airbnb is after 10am anyway. We, by default, called an Uber but there wasn't a… Continue reading Asia Day 27: Chiang Mai (Khao Soi – Huen Phen)
Asia Day 26: Bangkok (Wat Pho – Overnight train to Chiang Mai)

Asia Day 24: Bangkok
Photo of the day: View from the Sky Bar. Photo credit: Aaron. We decided last night we needed a more quiet day today, given the last few days have been pretty intense. It actually worked out because I woke up with a tickle in my throat and some post nasal drip. Could it be? Could… Continue reading Asia Day 24: Bangkok
Asia Day 23: Bangkok
Photo of the day: Coconut ice cream @ Chatuchak market. Photo credit: Aaron. Don't worry. I haven't forgotten about the Chatuchak Market, which I wanted to go to yesterday but instead got distracted by the Tourism Festival (which was an awesome distraction by the way). Aaron needed his morning coffee, so we stopped by Wanderlust… Continue reading Asia Day 23: Bangkok
Asia Day 22: Bangkok
Photo of the day: Khao Soi @ The Thailand Tourism Festival. Photo credit: Aaron. I woke up this morning really motivated, so I started doing researching on where and what to eat in Bangkok. I planned to visit the Chatuchak Weekend Market after seeing so many good eats in one place; however, Aaron reminded me… Continue reading Asia Day 22: Bangkok
Asia Day 21: Hanoi – Bangkok
Photo of the day: Duck noodle @ street food stall in Chinatown We got up a little earlier today to enjoy some final hot bowls of Pho at the hotel before our journey to the airport.
