Chiang Mai


We spent the day at Huay Tung Tao lake in Chiang Mai yesterday. What a gorgeous wee spot. No tourists. Just a few locals and their children floating around. There's a whole lot of these little huts (pictured) all around the lake with a couple of local restaurants attached. A lovely day relaxing and reading in the sun :-) 


On Wednesday we ventured up into the Doi Suthep Poi National Park on the scooter. We found a beautiful temple ( not surprising!) in a very cute mountain village. Most people were visiting the temple and then heading back down the mountain..(as many people take small buses or Tuk tuks). We decided to head further up to see what we could find. Came across the most beautiful little village called Doi Pui. At the highest point of the mountain.. It was the most gorgeous wee village with beautiful flower gardens and a small waterfall. Well worth the extra drive!! 




Hope everyone is well back in New Zealand. We do miss you!!

Xx Grace

Made it to Phuket

Hi all:-) just a post to let you know we have arrived in Phuket. We are now researching into where to go from here! We think we will travel to Koh Phi Phi island today ( very famous from the movie 'The Beach' with Leonardo DiCaprio). Food market lastnight was amazing! With love <3 Grace

Chiang Mai

We absolutely love Chiang Mai! What a relief after crazy Bangkok. The people here are so friendly and laid back. Apart from having to sleep on a bed as hard as a rock, and thank goodness for travel mosquito nets, everything is going well! :-) Off to explore! Grace xxx

Out of reception

Hello all :-) Just a post to let you know we may be out of reception the next few days. We are heading to an island called Koh Ta Kiev . We are pretty sure they don't have reception or Internet. We think we will be staying at accommodation called Crusoe Island.So, if contact is needed urgently, look them up (crusoeisland.asia) and they have a couple of numbers and email available. Love to you all xxx  The picture below is one of the lady's that walk around the beach with fruit on their heads. They cut it up and put it in a little bag with a skewer for you :-) mmmmmm
