Chiang Mai In A Nutshell

There's so much to do in Chiang Mai and having stayed there for 2 weeks, we pretty much saw the lot of it. Here's what to do, where to stay and what to see.

Learning To Cook The Thai Way

At home I'm a rubbish cook. Honestly, the most advanced I go is beans on toast or something involving a poached egg and again, toast... So we thought a cooking lesson was the perfect thing to try out.

Jungle Trekking & Staying With A Tribe

On Wednesday morning we got picked up bright and early and headed into the jungle for 48 hours of trekking, rafting and a lot of eating. 

The Elephant Jungle Sanctuary, Chiang Mai

For anyone who is a huge animal lover like myself, this post is for you. Sadly Thailand is infamous for its elephant rides but we happened to find the best sanctuary you can visit.

14 Hours On A Sleeper Train

After 2 nights in Bangkok, it was time to head up North to Chiang Mai. We took the overnight sleeper train and it was one of the best things I've done so far on this trip.

Beware Of The T.i.T Scam, Bangkok

So it's the second day into our Bangkok visit and we've been scammed... by £160. Here's what happened and how to avoid it.

Khaosan Road, Bangkok

Our first night in Bangkok was insane. After arriving in the airport at 10pm after a 4 hour flight, of course the first natural thing to do was to hit Khaosan Road.

The Hong Kong Experience

First things first, Happy New Year! I've only been in Hong Kong for 4 days but it's already on my top 10 list of favourite cities that I've visited.
