    Chiang Mai

    Feb 24–Mar 2, 2024 in Thailand ⋅ ☀️ 35 °C

    I loved Chiang Mai. It reminded me of Ottawa, a big but small city. It felt more relaxed and authentic than the south of Thailand. Many cute cafes, inexpensive restaurants, and yummy street food.

    Things I did: explored temples, Sunday night market, elephant tour, yoga in the park, went to watch muay thai fights (3 KO's out of 6 matches!), driving range, rooftop bar, tried a bunch of different types of food, day trip to Doi inthanon national park where the tallest point in Thailand is as well as the queen and king pagodas, lots of hanging out with friends I made, and lastly I did a Thai cooking class where I made thai tea, coconut soup, pad thai, khao soi, and mango sticky rice.
