A taste of Chiang Mai
April 26, 2008 - Chiang Mai, Thailand
There is so much a young traveller can see and do in Chiang Mai, the gorgeous northern city, encircled by an old moat and ruins. So much that I felt a bit overwhelmed. You can do a cooking course (yeah, right), go white water rafting, bamboo rafting, visit the zillions of wats, swim in the waterfalls, trek into the hill tribes and so on. I was...
