I spent my time in Bangkok as a day person, which means that I missed out on what the city is famous for, it's nightlife. Oh well. I met up with Duck-Whan, an Ecole alum. He was a really great host. I also went to the famous Chatuchak weekend market, which was as big and crazy as expected. I am now up in Chiang Mai, and have already put in a very full day. I got in at 6 am and checked into a hostel, then rented a bicycle and rode around town a bit. I headed up towards the famous Temple on Doi Sutep hill. It was a little more of a ride than I was expecting. I thought it was 12 km to the temple, but it was 12 km to the border of the national park and a very windy uphill road continued for about 20 km to the temple. It was a beautiful temple and the ride down made it all worth it. Now I'm finally getting around to putting some more pictures online. Check out the whole album here. I'm putting a few on the blog too.
Well, that's the update. I would love it if you could comment if you read the blog, so I know that people are actually reading it and so I get an idea of what I should share more.
love to all,
