Then there was an email to mum and dad.
Hi Mum/Dad,
We are up in a remote part of north Thailand now. It’s the cultural capital of Thailand. The weather is better here too. Cooler than the beaches where there wasn’t much to do.
We are planning some more temple visits (don’t worry, I’m not becoming a monk ha ha) and maybe a Thai cookery class.
Hope all is well back home
Love
Jonny
I walked out into the tranquil street with the thought of going back to the guesthouse for some sleep. Then I remembered that I was in a packed dorm room. The idea didn’t appeal. Taking to the streets of Chiang Mai, I noticed more dentists than massage parlours along the old streets. The city had a more family feel to it than Ko Pha Ngan or Bangkok. There was certainly no chance of a Haad Rin Beach Full Moo
